About this study

Official title: Endovascular Occlusion by Plug of the Prevertebral Subclavian Artery Preparatory to the Surgical or Endovascular Aortic Procedures (SAPE)

This is an observational, no-profit, ambispective study: a retrospective arm will include the cases treated between August 2009 and March 2018, and a prospective arm, investigating patients treated from March 2018 until December 2018. Target study population size is 150 patients between two groups analyzed.

Endovascular occlusion of the prevertebral subclavian artery was first used in the Vascular Surgery Department at San Raffaele Hospital in August 2009. During the initial experience (2009-2014) this technique was used with low frequency. Since 2015, the volume of cases receiving this treatment, has increased and the investigators expect to reach the study population target, by the end of 2018.

The objective of this study is describe the casuistry of endovascular occlusion of the subclavian artery by means of the Amplatzer Vascular plug in the Vascular Surgery Department at San Raffaele Hospital, and to evaluate the efficacy of such procedure.

Moreover, the investigators will evaluate the patency and success rate of the carotid-subclavian bypasses performed at the same time of the analyzed procedure.

What is being measured

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

  1. Technical success rate

    Technical success rate defined as complete occlusion of the left subclavian artery at postoperative CT scan

    Measured: within 30-day

  2. Major adverse event rate

    Any stroke or mortality related to the surgical procedure

    Measured: within 30-day

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Access site complications requiring secondary adjunctive procedures

    Any access site complication requiring open or endovascular adjuctive procedures (ie: surgical embolectomy, echo-guided pseudoaneurysm manual compression)

    Measured: within 30-day

  2. Supra-aortic vessels patency rate

    Patency of the carotid and subaclavian artery at follow-up

    Measured: within 5-years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Subclavian Artery Plug Embolization, run by IRCCS San Raffaele at 1 site in Italy.

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 2 inclusion and 1 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 Nov 2022. 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 Italy. 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?

Technical success rate (time frame: within 30-day). 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 NCT03620006, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 Nov 2022.
