About this study

Official title: INNER-B-APAC - Asian Pacific Post-market Clinical Follow-up Study in Patients With Thoracoabdominal Aortic Aneurysms Treated With E-nside TAAA Multibranch Stent Graft System

The INNER-B-APAC post-market clinical follow-up study is undertaken to demonstrate the safety and clinical performance of the E-nside TAAA Multibranch Stent Graft System used in endovascular treatment of patients with thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysms.

Read the detailed description

In this study, patients will be observed who are planned to be treated an E-nside TAAA Multibranch Stent Graft System for endovascular repair of a degenerative, atherosclerotic thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm. The E-nside TAAA Multibranch Stent Graft will be implanted at the discretion of the treating physician. Participating physicians will be asked to provide their observations collected during routine care for patients he/she had decided to treat with the E-nside TAAA Multibranch Stent Graft System. Informed consent of the patients to allow the use of their clinical records for the purpose of this observational study will be obtained before data are being collected. Patient data will be documented in an eCRF at the following time points: Pre-operative planning, intervention(s), discharge(s) from hospital, 30 days, 3-6 and 12 months follow-up. The period of data collection will be approximately 12 months (depending on the time point of the 12 months FU visit) from the index procedure for each patient. A 100% source data verification will be performed regarding patient information and consent, criteria of patients to be documented, pre-operative planning, intervention(s), treatment results, adverse events, death, and reintervention. Complete DICOM image files of the CT scans will be sent to a CoreLab for independent second evaluation.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Thoracoabdominal Aortic Aneurysm, run by JOTEC GmbH at 8 sites in 3 countries.

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 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 29 Oct 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 8 sites in Australia, New Zealand, Thailand. 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?

Mortality (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 29 Oct 2026.
