Some of them do this especially in the kind of hot weather we are having

You say that the leaves are brown, but to answer your question, we will need
to know what colour the flowers are ?

Lots and lots of water and a good feed solves this for me if I notice it
early.

If it does get overwhelmed this year, don't despair - they usually come
back next year, and next year you'll know to give it more TLC.

Sounds like it could be Clematis Wilt.... its quite common and not easy to
get rid off, but not necessarily fatal.
