Testing two new ways to repair an abdominal aneurysm
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial compares two procedures (ESAR and FEVAR) to repair an abdominal aortic aneurysm in people whose anatomy makes the usual repair hard. It may help find a safer, more durable option for patients with challenging aortic neck features.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are older than 18 and can legally consent in writing
- You are scheduled for the primary (first) repair of an abdominal aortic aneurysm in the lower belly area (infrarenal)
- Your scan shows a healthy “sealing zone” near the aneurysm with a certain length and width (about 4–15 mm long and at least 8 mm around)
- Your neck angle is not too steep (45° or less) and your neck size fits the study’s measurements
- Your case is too difficult for the safer “standard EVAR” option, as confirmed in the screening process
- You can follow all study visits and imaging follow-ups

This study compares two ways to treat an abdominal aortic aneurysm (a bulge in the lower part of the aorta). It looks at whether the newer approach works as well as standard EVAR in people whose aneurysm has a wider neck that may be harder to treat.
This study checks how well a specially designed aortic graft (a fenestrated device) works for people with specific types of enlarged or fast-growing aortic aneurysms. It may help confirm whether the device is safe and effective for preventing aneurysm problems.
This trial tests a device called TREO, which is a fabric-covered metal tube (stent) placed inside the abdominal aorta through a small cut in the leg. The goal is to treat a weakening or bulging area (aneurysm) to prevent it from bursting. It collects information on how well the device works over time.
This study looks at a specialized, customized stent graft to treat certain aneurysms (bulges) of the aorta in people who may be considered frail. It’s meant to see how well the device works and how safely it can be used in patients who fit specific aneurysm patterns.
This trial studies an endovascular (through blood vessels) repair technique for an unruptured enlarged artery in the belly called an abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). It may help doctors compare outcomes using a randomized approach and structured follow-up.
This study tests a new way to guide a complex aortic surgery (fenestrated endovascular repair) using less or no radiation. It may help people with aneurysms who need repair involving the arteries that supply the liver, gut and kidneys.
