Study Overview
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety differences between intracranial support catheter and guide catheter for stent-assisted embolization in the treatment of unruptured intracranial aneurysms in the anterior circulation.
Detailed Description
This is a prospective, multicenter, randomized, open, controlled, superiority trial carried out in 9 research centers over China. Patients are randomized 1:1 to therapy either intracranial support catheter or guide catheter. Taking the guide catheter as a control, to evaluate whether the safety of intracranial support catheter for stent-assisted embolization in the treatment of unruptured intracranial aneurysms in the anterior circulation is superior than that of the control.

- •Inability to perform cranial MRI+DWI preoperatively and within 48 hours postoperatively;
- •Hypertension that does not respond well to medical treatment (systolic blood pressure>185 mmHg and/or diastolic blood pressure>110 mmHg);
- •Preoperative active bleeding or bleeding tendency (INR>3);
- •Random blood glucose<2.7mmol/L or >22.2mmol/L;
- •Heart, lung, liver and kidney failure or other serious diseases (intracranial tumor, intracranial arteriovenous malformation, severe infection, DIC, previous myocardial infarction, history of severe psychosis, etc.);
- •Subject who will not cooperate or tolerate interventional operation;
- •Anticipated life expectancy<1 year;
- •Allergy, resistance or contraindication to one or more of the following: contrast agents, anesthetics, antiplatelet drugs, anticoagulants;
- •Participated or participating in another drug or device clinical trial within 1 month prior to enrollment;
- •Pregnant or breast-feeding woman;
- •Other circumstances judged by researchers that are not suitable for enrollment;
- •Catheter could not pass through due to obvious intracranial vessel stenosis or tortuosity determined from imaging;
- •Multiple aneurysms and more than one aneurysm requiring treatment;
- •The aneurysm body has arterial branches.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Incidence of symptomatic cerebral infarction within 48 hours postoperation
Time Frame: within 48 hours postoperation
Symptomatic cerebral infarction is defined as NIHSS score increased by≥4 points compared with preoperation, along with imaging confirmed to be caused by infarction.
Secondary Outcomes
- Incidence of Serious Adverse Events (SAE)(up to 90 days)
- Incidence of symptomatic cerebral infarction at 7 days postoperation or at discharge(7 days postoperation or discharged)
- Incidence of Adverse Events (AE)(up to 90 days)
- Incidence of new-onset DWI positive postoperation(within 48 hours postoperation)
- Rate of catheter-related complications(Intraoperation)
- Rate of mRS score 0-2 at 90 days(90±14 days postoperation)
- All-cause mortality within 90 days(up to 90 days)
