FIAT Trial Design

3Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Registry for flow diversionExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Flow diversion when randomization between flow diversion and best standard treatment is not possible and the only alternative is flow diversion for compassionate use. In this case there will be no random allocation but the patient will be entered into a registry
Group II: flow diversionActive Control1 Intervention
Flow diverters are low porosity braided endovascular stent devices. They can be used with or without coiling.
Group III: Best standard treatmentActive Control4 Interventions
Best standard treatment can by any of the standard management options: coiling, stenting plus coiling, surgical clipping, parent vessel occlusion, observation

Frequently Asked Questions

These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.

Is it possible to participate in this medical experiment?

"This trial is prospectively enrolling 344 individuals between the ages of 18 and 75 who suffer from berry aneurysm. In order to meet inclusion criteria, patients must have a "difficult" intracranial aneurysm in which flow diversion can be seen as a suitable or best option for treatment by their clinician. These conditions may include symptomatic large or giant cavernous carotid, ophthalmic and vertebral aneurysms, fusiform intradural aneurysms, or recurring lesions that have not been addressed through coiling procedures previously. Moreover, this clinical trial will rarely accept"
