Study summary

The study is a multicenter, prospective cohort study designed to assess the natural history, clinical safety and efficacy of various treatment strategies in patients with cerebral arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) and intracranial aneurysms.

Read the detailed description

This study aims to evaluate the clinical safety and efficacy of different treatment strategies in patients with cerebral arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) combined with intracranial aneurysms (IAs) through a multicenter, large-sample, prospective observational cohort study. It will comprehensively analyze the epidemiological characteristics, clinical manifestations, associated risk factors, natural disease progression, and bleeding risks, as well as explore the hemodynamic mechanisms and genetic background differences. Clinical data, imaging findings, and blood samples will be collected from patients to investigate the impact of hemodynamics on aneurysm formation, rupture risk, and treatment outcomes. Additionally, the study will explore the genetic differences of AVM and IA patients and their correlation with clinical presentation and prognosis, ultimately providing a scientific basis for individualized treatment strategies.

Study population

Patients treated across eight neurosurgery centers who were confirmed by digital subtraction angiography (DSA), and/or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), computed tomographic angiography (CTA) to have cerebral arteriovenous malformation and intracranial aneurysm.

Go through the criteria one by one — yes, no or not sure — and take the list to your doctor or the study team. Kept in this browser only.

Inclusion criteria

  • Patients diagnosed with cerebral arteriovenous malformation and intracranial aneurysm confirmed by CTA, MRA, and/or DSA;
  • Availability of complete clinical and imaging data;
  • Provision of written by the patient or their legally authorized representative to participate in the study and undergo follow-up;
  • Not concurrently participating in any other clinical trials that may interfere with the outcomes of this study.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Previous complete occlusion of the aneurysm and/or arteriovenous malformation prior to enrollment;
  • Coexistence of other cerebrovascular diseases such as moyamoya disease, cerebral cavernous malformation, cerebral venous sinus thrombosis, etc.;
  • Absence of DSA imaging data or poor image quality that precludes accurate evaluation of key anatomical and hemodynamic parameters of the AVM and intracranial aneurysm.
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(1)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

Groups and cohorts

  • Patients diagnosed with cerebral arteriovenous malformations and intracranial aneurysms

    Patients diagnosed with concomitant cerebral arteriovenous malformations and intracranial aneurysms by digital subtraction angiography (DSA), and/or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and/or computed tomographic angiography (CTA).

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Imaging Treatment Success Rate of Target Vascular Lesions

    his is a composite endpoint with stratified reporting by lesion type. It will separately calculate and report the success rates for the following two patient cohorts: For patients with intracranial aneurysms: Treatment success is defined as complete occlusion on postoperative digital subtraction angiography, assessed as Class I by the Raymond-Roy Occlusion Classification (RROC) or as Grade D by the O'Kelly-Marotta (OKM) grading scale. For patients with cerebral arteriovenous malformations (AVMs): Treatment success is defined as complete embolization on postoperative digital subtraction angiography, confirmed by the core laboratory or two independent assessors with no residual nidus opacification. Critical clarification: This composite measure does NOT calculate an overall arithmetic combined success rate. The final reported values will be two independent percentages.

    Time frame: 3 months postoperatively, 6 months postoperatively, 1years postoperatively, and 2 years postoperatively

Secondary outcomes

  1. Incidence of perioperative complications

    Perioperative complications include technical related complications (vascular rupture, thrombosis, etc.) and clinical complications (neurological deficits, infections, etc.)

    Time frame: Perioperative period

  2. Proportion of patients with hemorrhagic complications during follow-up period

    Including the type of bleeding (intracerebral hemorrhage/subarachnoid hemorrhage/intraventricular hemorrhage), specific location of bleeding,amount of bleeding;and determination of bleeding source: determine the source of bleeding from malformation or aneurysm through imaging examination.

    Time frame: within three years

  3. Proportion of patients with poor functional prognosis

    mRS score 3-6

    Time frame: 3 months postoperatively, 6 months postoperatively,and one year postoperatively

  4. Proportion of patients with good functional prognosis

    mRS score 0-2

    Time frame: 3 months postoperatively, 6 months postoperatively,and one year postoperatively

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Jan 20, 2026, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
