What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Endovascular treatment of bifurcation aneurysm with pCONUS2Device

    Patients suffering from a bifurcation aneurysm will be treated endovascularly with the pCONUS2 device.

    • The patients do not face any additional risks by participating in the study as the treatment does not differ from the standard of care in any way.
    • The patients will only be enrolled in the study if they give their written consent.
    • If they do not wish to participate in the observational study or if they wish to withdraw from it at a later date, they will not have any disadvantages.

What is being measured

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

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Intracranial Aneurysm, run by Phenox GmbH.

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 9 inclusion and 24 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 5 Apr 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 Konopka (+49 0234 36919 ext. 0, pToWin2@phenox.info), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Effectiveness: Aneurysm occlusion (complete or neck remnant) (time frame: Change from post-procedure to 12 months). The study lists 2 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 5 Apr 2018.
