About this study

Official title: Safety & Feasibility Study of the Innovasc Tack Intravascular Staple System (Tack) for Securing Vascular Flaps Resulting From Balloon Angioplasty in the Infrainguinal Artery(Ies)

The study is intended to evaluate the safety and feasibility of using the Intact Vascular (Innovasc) Tack-It Endovascular Dissection Repair System (Tack Intravascular Staple System) in patients with vascular flaps in the infrainguinal due post-angioplasty dissection.

Read the detailed description

The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the safety of delivery and placement of the Innovasc Tack Intravascular Staple System on vascular flaps in the SFA, created by percutaneous transluminal balloon angioplasty

Safety will be evaluated as the 30-day (or hospital discharge date, whichever is longer) rate of major adverse events defined as the composite endpoint of death, device embolization, the occurrence of surgery related to the device, device related occlusion of the artery, or major unplanned amputation of the ipsilateral lower extremity.

The secondary objective is to evaluate the feasibility of using the Innovasc Tack Intravascular Staple System to permanently secure vascular flaps.

Secondary Evaluation of Feasibility (technical success) of the Innovasc Tack Intravascular Staple System (procedure and device) will be evaluated acutely by the following:

  • Feasibility is defined as the ability to accurately place the Plaque Tacks and resolve post-PTA dissection flaps prior to the conclusion of the procedure, as demonstrated by angiography
  • Acute technical success: Acute luminal patency during the revascularization procedure using standard angiography which demonstrates that the lumen of the artery at the location of tack implant remains patent at the conclusion of the procedure.

The additional objectives of the study are to assess additional parameters as follows:

  • Long term success will be assessed at one (1) month and three (3) months by evaluation of post-implant stability of the Plaque Tack relative to vascular or external landmarks at 30 days and 3 months via standard x-ray.
  • Patency at 30 days and 3 months via duplex scanning or angiography, whichever deemed most appropriate for follow up of each individual patient by the principal investigator.

What is being measured

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

  1. Evaluation of Safety

    Safety will be evaluated as the 30-day (or hospital discharge date, whichever is longer) rate of major adverse events defined as the composite endpoint of death, device embolization, the occurrence of surgery related to the device, device related occlusion of the artery, or major unplanned amputation of the ipsilateral lower extremity.

    Measured: 30 days

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Evaluation of Feasibility

    Feasibility (technical success) of the Innovasc Tack Intravascular Staple System (procedure and device) will be evaluated acutely by the following:

    • Feasibility is defined as the ability to accurately place the Plaque Tacks and resolve post-PTA dissection flaps prior to the conclusion of the procedure, as demonstrated by angiography
    • Acute technical success: Acute luminal patency during the revascularization procedure using standard angiography which demonstrates that the lumen of the artery at the location of tack implant remains patent at the conclusion of the procedure.

    Measured: Conclusion of implant procedure

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Innovasc Tack Intravascular Staple System (Tack) in people with Critical Limb Ischemia and Peripheral Artery Disease, run by Philips Clinical & Medical Affairs Global at 2 sites in Paraguay.

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 12 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 5 Apr 2021. 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 Paraguay. 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.

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?

Evaluation of Safety (time frame: 30 days). 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 5 Apr 2021.
