Study population: The study will enroll male and female subjects 18 years of age and older that have an AAA and meet all other inclusion/exclusion criteria.
Who may be able to join

- Patient has signed an Institutional Review Board (IRB) approved Informed Consent Form.
- Patient is considered by the treating physician to be a candidate for elective open surgical repair of the AAA (i.e., category I, II, or III per American Society of Anesthesiology (ASA) classification; refer to Appendix II: ASA Classification System). ASA category IV patients may be enrolled provided their life expectancy is greater than 1 year.
- Patient has an infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm that meets at least one of the following:
- Abdominal aortic aneurysm >5.0 cm in diameter;
Show all 16Show fewer
- Aneurysm has increased in size by 0.5 cm in last 6 months; or
- Maximum diameter of aneurysm exceeds 1.5 times the transverse dimension of an adjacent non-aneurysmal aortic segment.
- Patient has suitable anatomy that allows use of the TriVascular Ovation Abdominal Platform:
- Iliac or femoral arteries that allow endovascular access with the TriVascular Ovation Abdominal Platform.
- Proximal aortic neck landing zone with an inner wall diameter of no less than 16 mm and no greater than 30 mm at 13 mm below the inferior renal artery.
- Distal iliac artery landing zone length (seal zone) of ≥10 mm. The resultant repair should preserve patency in at least one hypogastric artery.
- Distal iliac artery landing zone an inner wall diameter of no less than 8 mm and no greater than 25 mm.
- Distance from the most distal renal artery to most superior internal iliac artery measurement is at least 130 mm.
- Aortic angle of ≤ 60 degrees if proximal neck length is ≥10 mm and ≤ 45 degrees if proximal neck length is <10 mm.

About this study
Official title: The LUCY Study: TriVascular Evaluation of Females Who Are Underrepresented Candidates for Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Repair
The LUCY Study is a prospective, consecutively enrolling, non-randomized multi center post-market registry to evaluate the low profile Ovation ® Abdominal Stent Graft Platform when used in the endovascular treatment of female patients.
Read the detailed description
The LUCY Study is a prospective, consecutively enrolling, non-randomized multi center post-market registry to evaluate the Ovation Abdominal Stent Graft Platform when used in the endovascular treatment of female patients.
The primary endpoint is the Major Adverse Event (MAE) rate within 30 days of the initial procedure. MAEs will be adjudicated and reported based upon an independent Clinical Events Committee (CEC).
Secondary endpoints of the study will be achieved by demonstrating the benefits in female patients (Treatment Group) are comparable to male patients (Control Group) despite the fact that historically fewer female patients have been eligible for EVAR, and they have experienced a higher rate of access-related complications and higher mortality rates. Secondary endpoints will be evaluated through 1 year (365 ± 60 days) post-procedure.
A maximum of 45 sites across the United States are expected to enroll 225 subjects (75 females in the Treatment Group and 150 males in the Control Group).

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
An observational study of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm, run by TriVascular, Inc. at 1 site 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 16 inclusion and 21 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 1 Jun 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site 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.
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?
Major Adverse Event (MAE) (time frame: 1 month (30 ± 10 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 1 Jun 2021.
