NCT06986954 · View on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
Study Summary
This prospective observational post-market clinical study will collect data in the United States to primarily support the re-launch of the re-designed Beacon Tip Sizing Catheter and Slip-Catheter Beacon Tip Catheter \& Shuttle Select Slip-Catheter (Visceral and Cerbral) for a Conformité Européenne (CE) Mark application in the European Union (EU). Additionally, the data from this study may be used to support regulatory approval in other countries/regions. The purpose of this clinical study is to evaluate the safety and performance of these catheters in accordance with the Intended Use through the end of index procedure, and through 30 days post procedure, (as applicable as data is available) to ensure an acceptable benefit:risk ratio.

Full Details on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT06986954
The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT06986954 describes a study currently listed as recruiting. It is categorized as an unspecified phase, which is the standard way researchers label where a study sits along the investigational pathway from early safety work through later efficacy and post-marketing evaluation. The registered enrollment target is 588 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is Cook Research Incorporated, which has 6 total studies on file at ClinicalTrials.gov, and sponsors are the parties responsible for study design, oversight, and regulatory filings.
The record links to 6 conditions, with Stroke appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 1 intervention — of which Beacon Tip Catheters is the first listed. Interventions can include drugs, devices, procedures, behavioral programs, or observational arms, and each is tracked as a separate registry field so that downstream queries can filter accurately. When a trial lists multiple interventions, it usually reflects a multi-arm design or a comparison protocol rather than a single treatment being tested in isolation. The brief summary published in the registry is the clearest source of protocol intent and should be read before drawing conclusions from any sidebar tags.
Geographic footprint matters for practical reasons: NCT06986954 reports 1 study location spanning 1 distinct geographic area — top geographies include Connecticut. A larger site network tends to correlate with broader recruitment capacity, but it does not imply anything about study quality, and site-level enrollment status can diverge from the overall registry status shown above. Every data point on this page comes from the public ClinicalTrials.gov dataset and is reproduced here for reference only; it is not a medical recommendation, an endorsement of the sponsor, or an invitation to enroll.
