Gore TBE trial for descending thoracic aorta conditions in Japan
Part of Heart & circulation, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This trial tests a device called the GORE TAG Thoracic Branch Endoprosthesis (TBE) for people with certain diseases in the descending part of the main artery in the chest. It's designed to treat conditions like aortic aneurysm, traumatic tears, or complex aortic dissections while keeping blood flow to a key artery in the left arm.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a descending thoracic aortic aneurysm, a traumatic tear in your aorta, or a complicated type B aortic dissection that hasn't gotten better with medication
- Your anatomy fits the device's requirements for treatment
- Your doctor has determined the TBE device is suitable for you based on the Japanese package insert

This trial tests a new stent graft (a fabric tube that supports your aorta) for people with certain aortic diseases in the chest. It's designed to treat the problem while keeping blood flowing to an important branch artery.
This registry study tracks patients who have or will receive a Gore thoracic stent graft to see how well the device performs over time. It helps doctors understand the device's long-term benefits and any possible complications.
This study is checking how well the GORE TAG Thoracic Branch Endoprosthesis works for people who need a stent graft in a specific part of the aorta (Zone 0 or 1). It may help if you have an aneurysm or other condition requiring treatment in that area.
This study gathers information from patients who receive a special stent called the Gore TAG thoracic branched endograft to treat problems in the aorta, the main artery from the heart. Participation helps doctors learn more about how well this device works over time.
This study looks at how well the GORE TAG device (a stent used to treat aortic aneurysms and dissections) performs when placed during a 'frozen elephant trunk' surgery. If you had this procedure at least a year ago, your medical records may help doctors understand long-term outcomes.
This study tests a new stent graft placed through the groin/back to treat problems in the ascending aorta (and sometimes the arch), usually when open-heart surgery is considered too risky. Doctors will check whether the device is safe and works well over time, including imaging and a long follow-up.
