Contour Neurovascular System for Cerebral Aneurysms (NEXT Trial)

This study is looking into the Contour Neurovascular System™ as a treatment for cerebral aneurysms (weak, bulging spots in a blood vessel in the brain). The goal is to see if this system is a safe and effective way to treat wide-necked, saccular (sac-like) aneurysms. You could be eligible if you are between 18 and 75 years old and have a single aneurysm that needs treatment. The study will measure success by looking at serious events like death or stroke within 30 days of treatment, or within one year. It will also check if the aneurysm is completely closed by the Contour system after one year without needing more treatment or causing other problems. The current status of this study is unclear, and it plans to enroll 250 participants.

Study design
This is an interventional study that plans to enroll 250 participants. It is testing the Contour Neurovascular System™ as a treatment.
What's involved
You would undergo treatment with the Contour Neurovascular System and complete follow-up visits at 1 month, 12 months, and 24 months after the procedure. You would also report any side effects to the study team.
Compensation
Not stated in the trial record.
Follow-up
Participants will be followed for up to 24 months after treatment, with primary outcomes measured at one year.

Eligibility criteria

Inclusion

Saccular morphology
Located at a bifurcation in the anterior or posterior circulation
Aneurysm neck diameter between 2 and 10 mm and aneurysm equatorial diameter between 2 and 10.5 mm
Wide-necked, defined as neck size ≥ 4 mm or a dome/neck ratio \< 2 4. Patient may be treated with Contour without the use of additional implanted devices. 5. Patient is able to comply with all aspects of the screening, evaluation, treatment, and the post-procedure follow-up schedule. 6. Patient or legally authorized representative has signed and dated an institutional review board (IRB)/Ethics Committee (EC)-approved written informed consent prior to initiation of any study procedures.
  • Incidence of death or stroke within 30 days of treatment or ipsilateral stroke or neurological death between 30 days and 1 year.From enrollment to 1 year

    Death or stroke within 30 days of treatment or ipsilateral stroke or neurological death between 30 days and 1 year. Stroke is defined per the World Health Organization as: rapidly developing clinical signs of focal or global disturbance of cerebral function lasting more than 24 hours with no apparent cause other than of vascular origin, including ischemic stroke and/or hemorrhagic stroke.

  • Proportion of complete occlusion of the aneurysm with Contour, without retreatment, recurrent subarachnoid hemorrhage, or significant parent artery stenosis at one (1) year after treatment.From enrollment to 1 year

    Complete occlusion of the aneurysm with Contour as defined by complete aneurysm occlusion (Raymond Roy Scale of 1) without retreatment, recurrent subarachnoid hemorrhage, or significant parent artery stenosis (\> 50% stenosis) at one (1) year after treatment as assessed by the angiographic core laboratory. The Raymond-Roy Scale grades aneurysms on a scale of one (1) to three (3) with a lower score correlating with a more favorable outcome. The Raymond-Roy Scale will be graded in accordance with the following definitions: Class 1 (Complete obliteration of the aneurysm), Class 2 (Persistence of any portion of the original defect of the arterial wall as seen on any single projection but without opacification of the aneurysmal sac), or Class 3 (Any opacification of the aneurysmal sac).
