Large Thoracoabdominal Aortic Aneurysm Treatment Study
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial is for people with a large bulge in the main artery in the chest and belly area (called a thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm). The study will look at how to treat these aneurysms when they are larger than 5.5 cm to prevent serious problems.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years old or older.
- You have a thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm (a bulge in the main artery that runs from your chest to your belly) that is larger than 5.5 cm (about 2.2 inches).
- You do not have an active infection (like a fever or infection being treated with antibiotics).
- You are not allergic to contrast agents (dyes used in some imaging tests).

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial studies a less invasive stent procedure that blocks blood flow into certain large aneurysms in the chest-to-abdomen or upper abdomen area. It may help prevent aneurysm growth and rupture while avoiding the risks of open surgery.
This trial tests a new multibranched stent graft system to treat thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysms. It may help patients who have an aneurysm that is large, growing quickly, or causing symptoms like pain.
This study tests a special type of stent-graft (a tube with branch openings) to treat large or rapidly growing aneurysms and certain aortic dissections in the chest/abdomen or aortic arch. It aims to prevent the aneurysm from rupturing and to safely restore blood flow to key branch arteries.
This study tests a specially customized endovascular (through blood vessels) repair for certain large or fast-growing aneurysms near the kidney area or chest-to-abdomen area. It may help people who are higher risk for open surgery and whose anatomy fits the device.
This trial studies a less invasive “through-the-blood-vessel” stent graft procedure for large aneurysms in the main aorta or the aortic arch. It may help reduce the risk of aneurysm rupture while avoiding open surgery for people at higher surgical risk.
This trial studies a minimally invasive (endovascular) procedure to repair large or risky aneurysms in the aorta near the chest and abdomen. It may help prevent aneurysm rupture and improve outcomes compared with other possible treatments.
