Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Treatment by the PC 400 coilsPatients enrolled in this study must be those treated according to the cleared indication for the PC 400 System in the Instructions for Use.
Receives: Device: PC 400 coils

What is being measured

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

  1. Packing density with the number of coils implanted

    Measured: During the procedure

  2. Time of fluoroscopic exposure

    Measured: During the procedure

  3. Procedural device-related serious adverse events at immediate post-procedure

    Measured: During the procedure

  4. Quality of aneurysm occlusion post-operatively and at 12±3 months post-procedure based on the Raymond Scale

    Measured: At 1 year post-procedure

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Acute occlusion of the aneurysm sac at immediate post-procedure

    Measured: At immediate post-procedure

  2. Adverse events occurring during the procedure and in the 30±7 days following the treatment.

    Measured: During and at 30 days post-procedure

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Intracranial Aneurysms, run by Penumbra Inc. at 1 site in France.

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 2 inclusion and 6 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 17 May 2018. 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 France. 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?

Packing density with the number of coils implanted (time frame: During the procedure). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. 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 17 May 2018.
