Study 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.

Read the 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.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Incidence of symptomatic cerebral infarction 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.

    Time frame: within 48 hours postoperation

Secondary outcomes

  1. Incidence of new-onset DWI positive postoperation

    New-onset DWI positive is defined as any new hyperintense lesions.

    Time frame: within 48 hours postoperation

  2. Rate of catheter-related complications

    Catheter-related complications are defined as vasospasm, vascular dissection, etc. which caused by catheter during operation.

    Time frame: Intraoperation

  3. Incidence of symptomatic cerebral infarction at 7 days postoperation or at discharge

    Symptomatic cerebral infarction is defined as NIHSS score increased by≥4 points compared with preoperation, along with imaging confirmed to be caused by infarction.

    Time frame: 7 days postoperation or discharged

  4. Rate of mRS score 0-2 at 90 days

    mRS score 0-2 indicates good prognosis.

    Time frame: 90±14 days postoperation

  5. All-cause mortality within 90 days

    All-cause mortality is defined as all deaths due to any cause.

    Time frame: up to 90 days

  6. Incidence of Adverse Events (AE)

    Time frame: up to 90 days

  7. Incidence of Serious Adverse Events (SAE)

    Time frame: up to 90 days
