Study summary

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of robotic-assisted endovascular embolization procedures compared to objective performance criteria for traditional, manual operation based on the scientific literature.

Read the detailed description

This is a prospective, single-arm, international, multi- center, non-inferiority study to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of the CorPath GRX System for endovascular cerebral aneurysm embolization compared to historical controls. Subject selection requires a clinical indication for endovascular coil and/or stent-assist coiling embolization of cerebral aneurysms.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Number of Participants With Procedural Technical Success.

    The primary effectiveness endpoint will be defined as successful completion of the robotic-assisted endovascular procedure absent any unplanned conversion to manual for guidewire or microcatheter navigation, embolization coil(s) or intracranial stent(s) deployment, or an inability to navigate vessel anatomy.

    Time frame: Measured from the start of the procedure to the end of the procedure.

  2. Number of Intra- and Peri-procedural Events.

    The primary safety endpoint will be a composite of intra- and periprocedural events, including target aneurysmal rupture, vessel perforation or dissection, and thromboembolic event with neurological decline within 24-hours post- procedure or hospital discharge, whichever occurs first.

Participant flow

The clinical investigation started with enrollment of first subject on 21 August 2020 and subject recruitment was completed on 21 April 2022. With 10 investigational sites, up to 120 subjects were enrolled in order to achieve at least 108 subjects in the study; each site was initially approved to recruit a maximum of 20 subjects. The total study duration was 24 months: the recruitment phase was 18 months and follow-up continues to 180 days.
