Trial summary

The purpose of this study is to use a wire with a Doppler tip to measure blood flow in vessels in the brain and determine hemodynamic factors associated with treatment success or failure. Many neurological diseases cause abnormal blood flow in the brain in specific vessels. Read more about this study

Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: Patients will be eligible for this aim if they were not previously enrolled in the study, as this phase seeks to prospectively apply the tests generated by the previous retrospective cohort. Selection criteria will be similar in which a patient with an unruptured intracranial aneurysm ≥ 5mm in size undergoes endovascular treatment and subsequent angiographic follow-up.

Who may be able to join

  • Patient with an unruptured intracranial aneurysm ≥ 5mm in size undergoes endovascular treatment and subsequent angiographic follow-up

Who cannot join

About this study

Official title: Predicting Cerebral Aneurysm Recurrence Using Doppler Guidewire Measurements

The purpose of this study is to use a wire with a Doppler tip to measure blood flow in vessels in the brain and determine hemodynamic factors associated with treatment success or failure. Many neurological diseases cause abnormal blood flow in the brain in specific vessels. The special wire used in this study is place into brain blood vessels during standard of care procedure to treat such diseases, and blood flow parameters (such as velocity and pressure) are measured to gain better understanding of these neurological diseases.

Read the detailed description

Current treatments of cerebral aneurysms are imperfect, and aneurysmal hemodynamics is an important factor in treatment failure. The identification of hemodynamic factors that influence treatment success could predict outcome. Published studies show that the hemodynamic environment of aneurysms changes after treatment, and there is limited retrospective evidence that the degree of change affects treatment success. However, previous hemodynamic calculations did not have access to patient-specific measurements of blood flow, which substantially reduced their accuracy. In addition, no prospective studies of the predictive value of post-treatment aneurysm hemodynamics have been done.

Methods: Prospectively test new aneurysm patients for hemodynamic predictors of treatment outcome based upon the hypothesis long-term aneurysm treatment outcome can be prospectively predicted by measuring the immediate hemodynamic effects of aneurysm treatment with novel patient-specific modeling techniques. Task 1: In a new cohort of patients undergoing aneurysm treatment, the investigators will again use Doppler guidewire measurements to create patient-specific hemodynamic models of treatment effects. By prospectively applying the knowledge of crucial hemodynamic changes the investigators will use immediate post-treatment hemodynamics to predict long-term treatment outcome.

What is being measured

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

  1. Treatment Prediction

    The results of this prospective aim have the potential to substantially influence aneurysm management by predicting long-term outcome at the time of initial treatment. The investigators will determine how well the prospective test predicts long-term treatment success as applied at the time of treatment, using computational fluid dynamics modeling of hemodynamic factors with the incorporation of patient-specific measurements obtained by the Doppler guidewire

    Measured: May 2017- July 2019

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Aneurysm and Cerebral Aneurysm, run by University of Washington at 1 site in United States.

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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Oct 2020. 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 United States. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Treatment Prediction (time frame: May 2017- July 2019). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 1 Oct 2020.
