A Prospective Single Center Trial Investigating the Effects of Prospectively Measuring Packing Density Prior to Choosing Target Coils for the Treatment of Intracranial Saccular Aneurysms.
This is a prospective single center trial investigating the effects of prospectively
measuring packing density prior to choosing Target Coils for the treatment of intracranial
saccular aneurysms. Up to 25 eligible subjects with ruptured or unruptured intracranial
saccular aneurysms between 4-20mm (maximum dimension), who consent to study participation,
will be treated with Stryker Target Detachable Coils.
Historical data from patients enrolled in the MAPS trial at the single center will be the
control arm of the trial and reviewed for comparison to the prospective arm. In the control
arm, the subjects received Stryker Matrix2 Detachable Coils and Guglielmi Detachable Coils
and packing density was not measured prior to these procedures. The Pro-Pack Trial will
evaluate the outcomes of the subjects treated with Target Coils, in whom the packing density
will be actively calculated prior to coil selection. This will serve to establish that a
higher packing density can be obtained by the change in methodology of coil selection and a
higher packing density with lower recurrence rates.

The Pro Pack Trial will evaluate the outcomes of subjects treated with Target Coils, in whom
the packing density is actively calculated prior to coil selection. Selecting the coil with
the best volumetric filling has been shown to increase overall packing density. Each coil
thereafter will be evaluated prior to placement to assess the resultant packing density. An
initial goal of 10% or greater packing density with the first coil will be used as a guide to
coil selection. A final packing density of greater than 25% should be attempted as feasible.
Currently, a maximum packing density is not defined. While theoretically a packing density
may approach 100%, in reality the spaces between the coil loops occupy a large percentage of
the coil mass, and packing densities rarely reach 50% or greater. As such, the final packing
density is left to the operator, and is based on ability to place coils safely by the
operator.
Potential subjects will be screened, consented, imaged, and evaluated in order to obtain 25
patients with complete 12-month follow-up. Baseline patient data will be collected at the
time of the procedure; follow-up information will be collected within 48 hours of the
procedure, and at approximately 12 months (±3 months) after the procedure. The anticipated
study duration is approximately 24 months: 12 month recruitment, 12 month primary endpoint
and closeout.
Enrollment in the study occurs after a signed Informed Consent form has been obtained, all
eligibility criteria have been met, aneurysm volume has been calculated, and the procedure to
place Target Coils with prospective density measurements has begun, i.e., at the time of
target procedural angiography. From the moment of placement of the first coil, the patient is
considered in the study whether they receive Target Coils or not, and will be followed up and
included in the final analysis. Patients enrolled in the trial will be followed for
approximately 12 months after the index embolization procedure. This will allow evaluation of
the primary and secondary study endpoints. Targeted enrollment is 25 patients with complete
12 month follow-up evaluations. Every effort will be made to follow the progress and monitor
the safety of patients who have been treated with Target® Coils.
Embolization utilizing Target® Coils may proceed at the time of diagnostic angiography for
eligible patients who have signed an Informed Consent form. The investigator must perform the
embolization procedure. Framing, filling, and finishing should be done with Target Coils. In
the event of aneurysms with wide necks or unfavorable anatomy, adjunctive therapy, Neuroform
Stent may be used to ensure the best clinical and angiographic results.
The site will enter ongoing, real time information into an electronic imaging database and
track outcomes during the follow-up angiographic evaluations. The degree of occlusion, by
coils and/or thrombus, will be measured post procedurally and at 12 +/- 3 months post
procedure by the Angiographic Core Laboratory using a 3 point categorical scale: complete,
residual neck/dog ear or residual aneurysm. Additionally, for the final angiogram, a same/
better / worse scale shall be applied.
