NCT ID: NCT06374693 Not yet recruiting - Clinical trials for Subarachnoid Haemorrhage From Cerebral Aneurism Rupture

Investigating the Tolerability and Feasibility of Transcutaneous Vagus Nerve Stimulation Following Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Haemorrhage

tVNS in aSAH
Start date: April 14, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

After a subarachnoid haemorrhage, complications are common and increase the overall rate of disability and death from the condition. Despite some advances in preventing, detecting and treating these complications, the rates of complications and associated risks remain high. Further research into ways to reduce complications of subarachnoid haemorrhage. Transcutaneous vagus nerve stimulation (tVNS) is a technique where a small handheld device is attached to an earpiece which stimulates the nerves to the ear. This is given for short periods and may help improve blood flow and reduce inflammation in the brain. The intervention has been safely used and licensed in seizures, headache and severe depression. This study will look to see if it is feasible and tolerable to have tVNS twice daily for 5 days after subarachnoid haemorrhage, and whether it can help reduce the risk of complications from subarachnoid haemorrhage. The participant will be randomly allocated to receive either tVNS or a dummy intervention, known as sham. The researchers will collect some personal and clinical details such as diagnosis, medications, age, blood test results, as well as some details about the subarachnoid haemorrhage. The researchers will also complete brief questionnaires with the participant to assess symptoms. They will take measurements of heart rate, pupil response, and brain activity using a cap. The participant will then be randomly allocated to either receive the tVNS or sham intervention. Next, the research team will apply the earpiece to their ear twice a day for 45 minutes, for a total of 5 days. At the end of the 5-day study period, the intervention will be complete. The researchers will arrange a follow-up meeting on discharge and at 6 weeks, to assess the participants symptoms and recovery. Previous studies have shown that tVNS is safe and well tolerated, including a recent review of tVNS studies which evaluated the side effects experienced by 1322 patients receiving tVNS. The main side effects include localised tingling/numbness/pain/redness around the ear (17%), headaches (3%), dizziness (1%), facial droop (1%), nausea (1%), nasal discharge (2%). Rarely, palpitations or a slow heart rate may occur. They will continue to receive full medical treatment and observation alongside the study. They are free to withdraw from this study if they find it too demanding on top of their other activities.

An Early Warning Model of Unfavorable Outcomes Following Endovascular Interventional Treatment of Intracranial Aneurysm

Start date: January 1, 2024
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Endovascular treatment has become one of the primary treatment methods for intracranial aneurysms. The unfavorable outcomes during follow-up included aneurysm recurrence and long-term incomplete-occlusion, which would bring a high risk of rebleeding and retreatment. Previous studies have tried to predict the outcomes of aneurysms following endovascular treatment based on aneurysm characteristics including morphology, embolization packing degree, etc, but the conclusion was inconsistent. Hemodynamics of aneurysms and parent artery played a greater role in predicting outcomes following endovascular treatments. Investigators also found that the outcomes were determined by many factors, in which the demography, clinical indicators, treatment methods, and material selection can not be ignored, and the mechanism of unfavorable imaging outcomes should be explored using large samples of clinical cases and numerous variable parameters. The pre-experiment of investigators confirmed that artificial intelligence technology can meet the calculation requirements for deep mining and analysis of large sample data. This study aims to use the deep learning model to identify relevant risk factors and weights, establish a stable and accurate prediction model, then incorporate the prospective study to verify the model. The results will be very helpful in accurately predicting the adverse outcomes such as recurrence and long-term non-occlusion after endovascular treatment and help to improve the therapeutic strategy and avoid risk factors. Besides, the occurrence of ischemic or hemorrhagic complications during follow-up may affect the final follow-up outcome, so the analysis was included as one of the outcome events to evaluate the prognosis after intervention.

Effectiveness of Atorvastatin in Preventing Cerebrovascular Events After Flow Diverter Implantation

Start date: March 5, 2024
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

In recent years, with the development of medical technology and materials and instruments, flow diverter (FD) has gradually become the most important treatment method for the treatment of intracranial aneurysms (IA). It is a revolutionary treatment method, which has changed the concept of endovascular treatment of IA, and turned the previous endovascular embolization to the reconstruction of the parent artery. At present, FD has been used in more than 250,000 cases worldwide, and the overall 1-year complete occlusion rate of aneurysms can reach 75%-85.5%. However, although the current imaging prognosis of FD is encouraging, the perioperative complications of FD are as high as 12.9%, including ischemic complications, SAH, and parenchymal hemorrhage in 7.3%, 2.0%, and 2.0%, respectively. The postoperative mortality was 1.5%, of which 1.3% were caused by delayed aneurysm rupture, distal parenchymal hemorrhage and PED-related nerve compression symptoms. In addition, an in-stent stenosis of more than 50% within one year has been reported in 10.2 to 15.0% of patients. However, in addition to conventional dual antibody therapy, there is no relevant guideline recommendation or clinical evidence on how to prevent complications after FD implantation in IA patients. Atorvastatin is widely used in the primary and secondary prevention of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Its main effect is to improve the incidence of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events by reducing blood lipids. Although the mechanism of clinical benefit of lipid-lowering by atorvastatin is not completely clear, a large number of clinical evidence has shown that atorvastatin can also reverse atherosclerosis, stabilize plate, reduce inflammation, reverse vascular endothelial dysfunction and reduce microthrombosis. It can reduce the incidence of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events in patients with coronary heart disease and internal carotid artery stenosis after stent implantation in different degrees. However, there is no high-quality clinical evidence for the use of atorvastatin in intracranial aneurysm stent implantation. Previous retrospective studies have shown that atorvastatin is the only protective factor for in-stent restenosis after flow diverter implantation in intracranial aneurysms. In a retrospective observational study involving 273 patients empirically treated with atorvastatin for unruptured IA in our center, the median follow-up period was 7.6 months. The incidence of cerebrovascular events was 3.27%, and the incidence of more than 50% in-stent stenosis was 8.4%, which was significantly lower than the incidence of related events reported at home and abroad. Therefore, this study planned to conduct a randomized controlled clinical trial to confirm the efficacy and safety of oral atorvastatin in the prevention of cerebrovascular adverse events after stent implantation in patients with unruptured intracranial aneurysms, and to provide objective evidence for the treatment decision of patients with unruptured intracranial aneurysms to prevent cerebrovascular adverse events after flow diverter implantation.

Beta-blockade in Unruptured Intracranial Aneurysm

BBLURAN
Start date: January 1, 2025
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

Subarachnoid haemorrhage is a devastating type of stroke, with high mortality and morbidity rate. In approximately 85% of cases, it is caused by an intracranial aneurysm rupture. Majority of patients with diagnosed intracranial aneurysm are eligible for interventional treatment, however, some patients are managed conservatively. Currently, the only recommendations for patients with conservatively managed intracranial aneurysms, are routine imaging follow-ups and minimization of rupture risk factors. There are no medications proven to decrease risk of aneurysm rupture, that might be prescribed to such patients. In preliminary study the investigators found that patients with intracranial aneurysms who took β-blockers had significantly smaller aneurysm rupture rate and dome size, as well as more favorable hemodynamic parameters. No other antihypertensive drugs showed similar associations. Therefore, in this project the investigators aim to further analyze the impact of β-blocker intake on fate of intracranial aneurysm and find possible explanations for its protective role. The investigators aim to perform a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial. One hundred patients with unruptured intracranial aneurysm, , qualified to conservative management will be enrolled. Two arms (50 patients each) will be receiving nebivolol or matching placebo. Treatment in each arm will last 12 months. The following examinations will be performed at baseline and at 6 and 12 months: clinical assessment, angio-MRI with vessel wall imaging, Doppler ultrasound to extract blood flow waveforms from Internal Carotid Artery, Vertebral Artery Middle Cerebral Artery, Anterior Cerebral Artery and Posterior Cerebral Artery, as well as blood samples. Based on the results the investigators will assess changes in aneurysm size and wall contrast enhancement. The investigators will also analyze levels of possible aneurysm growth biomarkers in peripheral blood. Additionally, the investigators will prepare three-dimensional models of the artery harbouring aneurysm and perform patient-specific computer modelling of blood flow through such artery to assess hemodynamic parameters of aneurysm dome. All obtained measurements will be compared at baseline and at 6 and 12 months. The investigators hypothesize that, in comparison to the placebo group, β-blocker therapy in patients with unruptured intracranial aneurysm will contribute to favorable changes in hemodynamic parameters of aneurysm dome, decrease wall degradation process and prevent from aneurysm growth.

Prospective, Single-Arm, Multicenter Study to Evaluate the Effectiveness and Safety of Endovascular Treatment in Patients With Cerebral Aneurysms Using P64 and P48 Flow-Diverter Stents

pSPAIN_HPC
Start date: January 12, 2024
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The use of flow-diverting stents for the endovascular treatment of cerebral aneurysms has proven to be effective and efficient in several clinical studies, leading to its widespread adoption. Devices with a higher number of filaments have a greater flow-diverting effect and less variation when there are changes in the caliber of the underlying vessel or in curved vessels. However, ischemic complications secondary to their implantation have been reported, prompting the development of various strategies to reduce their thrombogenicity. Phenox is the only company to date that has developed an anti-thrombogenic coating, known as HPC (Hydrophilic Polymer Coating), which, when applied to the p64 MW HPC and p48 MW HPC devices, has shown to reduce the likelihood of thromboembolic complications associated with their implantation.
