Read the detailed description

This study is a multi-center prospective, open label, non-randomized investigation of INCRAFT™ in subjects with abdominal aortic aneurysms. The study will enroll up to 60 subjects at 7 sites in Germany and Italy. All treated subjects will be evaluated at 1 month, 3 months (if applicable), 6 and 12 months, and annually for a total of 5 years post-procedure. An interim analysis will be conducted after the 25th enrolled subject reaches the 30-day follow up visit

What is being measured

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

  1. Rate of Technical Success Through the One Month Follow up.

    Technical success is defined as the successful deployment of the stent-graft to the desired location in the absence of Types I, III or IV endoleaks at the conclusion of the procedure and through the one month follow up.

    Measured: From procedure to one month follow up

  2. Rate of Primary Safety Endpoint Within 1 Month Post-procedure.

    Primary safety is defined by the absence of Types I, III or IV endoleaks and device and/or procedural related major adverse events within 1 month post-procedure. Major adverse events include death, MI, stroke and renal failure.

    Measured: One month follow-up

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. Percentage of Participants With Incidence of Aneurysm Enlargement Annually Through 5 Years Post - Procedure.

    Incidence of aneurysm enlargement annually through 5 years post - procedure. Aneurysm enlargement is defined as being compared to the 30 day baseline assessment.

    Measured: Day 30 through year 5 post-procedure

  2. Percentage of Participants With Incidence of Stent-graft Migration Annually Through 5 Years Post - Procedure.

    Incidence of Stent-graft Migration annually through 5 years post - procedure. Stent-graft Migration is defined as being compared to the 30 day baseline assessment.

    Measured: Day 30 through year 5 post-procedure

  3. The Cumulative Percentage of Participants With Major Adverse Events at Annually Through 5 Years Post - Procedure.

    The cumulative percentage of participants with Major Adverse Events (MAE) at annually through 5 years post - procedure; i.e., the percentage of MAE at Year 1 includes all MAEs occurred during the first year, the percentage at Year 2 includes all MAEs during the first two years, and etc. The Major adverse events include death, stroke, Q wave myocardial infarction, and renal failure

    Measured: From day 1 through year 5 post-procedure

  4. The Percentage of Participants With Endoleaks at Annually Through 5 Years Post - Procedure.

    The percentage of endoleaks at annually through 5 years post - procedure. Endoleak contains Types I and III endoleaks

    Measured: From day 1 through year 5 post-procedure

  5. The Percentage of Participants With Stent-graft Fractures at 30 Days and Annually Through 5 Years Post - Procedure.

    The percentage of stent-graft fracture at 30 days and annually through 5 years post - procedure. Stent-graft fracture is defined as stent skeleton fracture and barb separation

    Measured: From day 1 through year 5 post-procedure

  6. The Percentage of Participants With Thrombosis at 30 Days and Annually Through 5 Years Post - Procedure.

    The percentage of Thrombosis at hospital discharge at 30 days and annually through 5 years post - procedure.

    Measured: From day 1 through year 5 post-procedure

  7. The Percentage of Participants With Stent Graft Explant at 30 Days and Annually Through 5 Years Post - Procedure.

    The percentage of Stent Graft Explant at hospital discharge at 30 days and annually through 5 years post - procedure.

    Measured: From day 1 through year 5 post-procedure

  8. The Percentage of Participants With Endoleg Patency at 30 Days and Annually Through 5 Years Post - Procedure.

    The percentage of participants with Endoleg Patency by CT scan at 30 days and annually through 5 years post - procedure.

    Measured: From day 1 through year 5 post-procedure

What does the primary outcome measure?

Rate of Technical Success Through the One Month Follow up. (time frame: From procedure to one month follow up). 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01106391, which also lists 5 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.
