What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • PROTÉGÉ® GPS™ and PROTÉGÉ® RX Carotid Stent Systems and Spider Embolic Protection DeviceDevice

    Carotid artery stenting with distal embolic protection.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Myocardial infarction, ipsilateral cerebrovascular accident, procedure-related contralateral CVA or death within 30 days of implantation; and ipsilateral CVA from 31 days to 1 year post-implantation

    Measured: 30 days and one year

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Ipsilateral CVA, procedure-related contralateral CVA or death with 30 days of implantation; and ipsilateral CVA from 31 days to 1 year post-implantation

    Measured: 30 days and one year

  2. Target lesion revascularization

    Measured: one year

  3. Target vessel revascularization

    Measured: one year

  4. Primary patency at one year (<70% stenosis as measured by duplex scan)

    Measured: one year

  5. Technical success (defined as the ability to deploy the filter, place the stent over the filter wire, and recapture the filter with the resulting residual stenosis <50%)

    Measured: at implant

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing PROTÉGÉ® GPS™ and PROTÉGÉ® RX Carotid Stent Systems and Spider Embolic Protection Device in people with Carotid Artery Disease, run by Medtronic Endovascular at 31 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 4 inclusion and 5 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 14 May 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 31 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 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?

Myocardial infarction, ipsilateral cerebrovascular accident, procedure-related contralateral CVA or death within 30 days of implantation; and ipsilateral CVA from 31 days to 1 year post-implantation (time frame: 30 days and one year). 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 NCT00619775, 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 14 May 2021; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 26 Oct 2026.
