About this study

Official title: A Phase II, Single-arm, Prospective Study of the Safety of the UniFit Aorto-uni-iliac Endoluminal Stent Graft for the Repair of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms

The primary study objective, at this time, is to follow out to 5 years post implant the safety of already enrolled subjects who were treated with the UniFit Aorto-uni-iliac (AUI) Endoluminal Stent Graft (the "study device") for the repair of abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs).

Read the detailed description

This is a phase II, single-arm, prospective study of the safety of the study device for the repair of AAAs.

The investigator will identify eligible patients and explain the study and study device placement procedure to each patient and/or any available family members. Patients who provide written informed consent will be evaluated for study eligibility within the time period identified under Duration of Treatment. Patients who are confirmed to be eligible, based on screening assessment findings, will be enrolled in the study.

After hospital discharge, patients will attend study center visits at 30 days, 6 months, and 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 years post-procedure for follow-up evaluations.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing UniFit AAA Stent Graft in people with Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms, run by Duke Vascular, Inc. at 19 sites in United States.

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 9 inclusion and 17 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Aug 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 19 sites in United States. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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 was stopped early. Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Primary Objective (time frame: 5 year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 25 Aug 2015.
