Trial summary

Based on the anatomical features of the anterior Communicating artery complex, the investigators will analyze the outcome of the ACoA aneurysms treated by endovascular therapy. The most common site of intracranial aneurysms is the anterior communicating artery (AcomA). Read more about this study

About this study

Based on the anatomical features of the anterior Communicating artery complex, the investigators will analyze the outcome of the ACoA aneurysms treated by endovascular therapy.

The most common site of intracranial aneurysms is the anterior communicating artery (AcomA). AcomA aneurysms account for approximately one-fourth of all intracranial aneurysms.

Read more

Recent publications have addressed specifically the endovascular treatment of AcoA aneurysms. Furthermore, detailed anatomic characteristics and the effects of the multiple variations of the anterior communicating artery complex have scarcely been reported.

The hemodynamic factors play a fundamental role in the adequate treatment of aneurismal coiling.

The objective of our registry is to analyze the impact of morphological configuration of the anterior communicating artery complex and the results of coil embolization in AcoA aneurysms

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Effective Aneurysm Coiling (no residual cerebral aneurysm)

  2. Neurological Outcome (classified with the Glasgow Outcome Scale, Rankin Scale)

    All patients will be classified with the Glasgow Outcome Scale, Rankin Scale.

    Measured: 1 year

  3. Procedural device-related serious adverse events

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Intracranial Aneurysm and Anterior Communicating Artery Aneurysm, run by Hospital Clinic of Barcelona at 1 site in Spain.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 May 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Spain. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Federico Zarco, MD (932275400 ext. 2662, fzarco@clinic.ub.es), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Effective Aneurysm Coiling (no residual cerebral aneurysm) (time frame: 1 year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02444832, which also lists 4 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 15 May 2015.
