Aortic arch repair with new stent system
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 80 years old.
- You have an aneurysm, pseudoaneurysm, or ulcer in the aortic arch (the main artery that curves over your heart).
- Your aorta (the main artery) has certain specific sizes and shapes that allow the stent graft to work.
- You are considered high risk for open surgery by at least two doctors.
- You have not had a heart attack or stroke in the last 3 months, and do not have certain other serious medical conditions.

This trial tests a special stent-graft designed for aortic arch aneurysms or ulcers that need treatment near the heart. It might be an option if you are not a good candidate for open surgery.
This trial tests a new stent graft (a fabric-covered metal tube) placed inside the artery to fix aneurysms or ulcers in the aortic arch without open-heart surgery. It is designed for people whose anatomy fits precise measurements and who are not good candidates for traditional surgery.
This study tracks outcomes after a specific aortic arch stent procedure using a device with three inner branches. It’s mainly a registry, meaning researchers follow people over time to learn how safe and effective the procedure is.
This trial studies a special stent-graft placed inside the aorta to treat aneurysms, penetrating ulcers, or chronic dissections. It aims to see how well these branch stent grafts fit and seal the problem area while reducing the need for open surgery.
This trial tests a new device called Arcevo LSA to treat certain types of aortic arch problems, like dissections (tears) or aneurysms (bulges). It is for people who need open surgery, and the device helps fix the left subclavian artery area.
This trial studies different custom and modified stent-grafts (tiny metal-reinforced tubes placed inside the aorta) to repair difficult aortic aneurysms and dissections. It aims to see which approach best fits your aortic shape and helps keep blood flowing safely.
