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

Who may be able to join

  • Age ≥ 18 years.
  • Subarachnoid hemorrhage secondary to ruptured aneurysm.
  • Ruptured aneurysm secured with surgical clipping or endovascular intervention.
  • Digital subtraction angiography (DSA) or CT angiography at the time of aSAH clinical presentation or aSAH intervention with well-visualized intra-cerebral vessels is available for review.
  • Vasospasm in one or more of the following: the internal carotid artery (ICA), basilar, middle cerebral artery (MCA), anterior cerebral artery (ACA), or posterior cerebral artery (PCA) territory on transcranial Doppler (TCD), and/or CT angiography, and/or clinical signs of symptomatic vasospasm (change in level of consciousness, focal neurological deficit) confirmed by > 50% narrowing in these territories on DSA.
  • Vasospasm despite maximized medical management defined as oral Nimodipine (unless contraindicated), systemic hypertension with SBP greater than 130 mmHg and euvolemia.
  • Target vessel pre-vasospasm diameter ≥ 2 mm and ≤ 4.0 mm.
  • Subject or legal representative is able and willing to give informed consent.

Who cannot join

  • The presence of an unsecured ruptured aneurysm. Note unsecured unruptured aneurysms remote to the site of treated aSAH are not an exclusionary.
  • Symptoms attributable to other causes (e.g., hydrocephalus, metabolic, infection).
  • Hunt and Hess Grade of 5
  • Large infarct on CT scan defined as ASPECTS 0-5.
  • Intracranial hemorrhage not caused by aneurysm rupture.
  • History of bleeding disorders.
Show all 21Show fewer
  • Baseline platelets < 30,000.
  • International normalized ratio (INR) > 1.7.
  • Any known contraindications to mechanical dilation of vasospastic vessels including but not limited to:
  • Excessive vessel tortuosity that prevents the placement of the device
  • Evidence of rapidly improving neurological signs of stroke
  • Large territory completed cerebral infarction, edema with mass effect and intra-parenchymal hemorrhage in vascular territory to be treated, or
  • any other vascular anatomic variants or anomalies
  • Pre-existing neurological or psychiatric disease that would confound the neurological or functional evaluations, e.g. dementia with prescribed anti-cholinesterase inhibitor (e.g. Aricept).
  • History of severe allergy to contrast medium.
  • Known allergy to NeVa materials (nitinol, stainless steel).
  • Suspected or confirmed septic embolus, or bacterial endocarditis.
  • Septic shock or central nervous system (CNS) infection confirmed via cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) sampling.
  • Known current or recent use of illicit drugs or alcohol abuse.
  • Females who are pregnant or breastfeeding.
  • Any other condition that, in the opinion of the investigator, precludes an endovascular procedure or poses a significant hazard to the subject if an endovascular procedure is performed.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing NeVa VS in people with Cerebral Vasospasm, run by Vesalio at 10 sites 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 8 inclusion and 21 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 3 Jan 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 10 sites 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 3 Jan 2023). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Procedural Success (time frame: within 30 minutes of completion of procedure). 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 3 Jan 2023; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
