NEXUS aortic arch stent graft safety study
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study checks how safe and well the NEXUS device works for repairing the aorta in the arch area. You may qualify if you need this type of aortic repair and your health supports the procedure.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are age 18 or older.
- Your doctor says you need the NEXUS aortic arch stent graft (or the custom-made version) based on the study’s instructions for use.
- You either have not had the device yet, or you already had a NEXUS/NEXUS DUO implanted after February 2019.
- You can and agree to sign informed consent for the study.
- You are not enrolled in another study that would interfere with this one (unless it’s a required government or purely observational registry).
- You are expected to live more than 1 year and you are not pregnant (and don’t plan pregnancy).
- Your kidney function is stable for this procedure.
- You don’t have other major health problems or planned procedures/surgeries that would interfere (for example, major heart surgery or a heart/brain event in the last 90 days).

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial collects follow-up data from patients who received special branched stent grafts (tube-like devices) to treat complex aortic aneurysms (weakened areas of the main blood vessel). The study helps confirm these devices work safely over time.
This study tests a new stent graft device to treat problems in the aortic arch, such as aneurysms or chronic dissections, without open surgery. It may help people who are not good candidates for traditional open repair.
This study looks at using special branched stent-grafts to treat problems in the aortic arch (such as aneurysm or certain tears). It focuses on how well this approach works and how patients do over follow-up visits.
This trial tests a new device (Nectero EAST) for treating abdominal aortic aneurysms without major surgery. It may be an option for people with a medium-size aneurysm who have not had prior repair.
This trial tests a new stent graft system (like a fabric tube on a metal cage) that is placed inside the aorta through a blood vessel in your leg. It is designed to fix problems in the aortic arch without open heart surgery, for people who are at high risk for surgery. The goal is to see how safe and effective it is over time.
This study tests a new, less invasive way to fix problems in the aortic arch (the top part of the main artery from the heart) using a stent graft placed through a catheter. It may help people who cannot have traditional open surgery.
