  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Male and female subjects, 18 years or older, requiring elective, primary or repeat vascular procedures with at least one end-to-side femoral or upper extremity vascular access arterial anastomosis (e.g. femoral-femoral, femoral-popliteal, femoral-tibial, ilio-femoral, aorto-bifemoral, abdominal aortic aneurysm, upper extremity vascular access for dialysis) using uncoated or heparin-coated PTFE grafts and polypropylene sutures (size 5-0 or 6-0) with a 1:1 needle-to-thread ratio.
  • Following initial arterial clamp release, the study surgeon determines that adjunctive measures are needed to obtain haemostasis at the SAS.
  • Subjects must be willing to and capable of participating in the study, and provided written informed consent.

Who cannot join

  • Subjects undergoing re-vascularisation using autologous conduits (e.g. saphenous vein) or prosthetic material other than uncoated or heparin-coated PTFE.
  • Subjects undergoing emergency surgery.
  • Subjects with any intra-operative findings that may preclude conduct of the study procedure.
  • Subjects with known intolerance to heparin, blood products or to one of the components of the study product.
  • Subjects unwilling to receive blood products.
  • Subjects with autoimmune immunodeficiency diseases (including known HIV).

  • Subjects who are known, current alcohol and / or drug abusers.
  • Subjects who have participated in another investigational drug or device research study within 30 days of enrolment.
  • Female subjects who are pregnant or nursing.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Fibrin sealant (FS2) in people with Peripheral Vascular Disease, run by Ethicon, Inc. at 17 sites in 2 countries.

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 3 inclusion and 9 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 13 Jul 2006. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 17 sites in United States, United Kingdom. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Attainment of hemostasis at following randomization.. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00154141, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 13 Jul 2006.
