What is being measured

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

  1. Proportion of subjects who experience ≥ 1 major adverse events (MAE) related to the experimental device/procedure at early (30-day) and late (6-month) endovascular TAA repair as compared with the open surgical repair group.

    Measured: 30 day and 6 month

  2. The primary effectiveness endpoint of early (30-day) and late (6-month) endovascular TAA repair will be assessed by the proportion of subjects free from major device related events

    Measured: 30 day and 6 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. • All cause mortality • Aneurysm related mortality compared to an open surgical control group • Major adverse events • Minor adverse events

    Measured: 30 day and 6 month

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Endovascular repair of TAA in the descending Thoracic Aorta in people with Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm, run by Duke Vascular, Inc. at 2 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 6 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 May 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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

Are results available for this study?

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?

Proportion of subjects who experience ≥ 1 major adverse events (MAE) related to the experimental device/procedure at early (30-day) and late (6-month) endovascular TAA repair as compared with the open surgical repair group. (time frame: 30 day and 6 month). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 20 May 2015.
