Physician-Modified Stent Grafts for Aortic Aneurysms
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests a custom-made stent graft (a tube that reinforces the aorta from inside) for patients with large aortic aneurysms who may be too sick for traditional open surgery. The goal is to prevent rupture and complications while avoiding major surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a large aortic aneurysm (bulge in the main artery) that is growing or at high risk of rupture
- You are age 50 or older
- You are considered high-risk for traditional surgery due to lung disease, heart problems, frailty, or other serious conditions
- Your aorta anatomy is suitable for a catheter-based repair (blood vessels are the right size and shape)
- You have not had prior aortic surgery or repair
- You are willing to return for regular follow-up visits and imaging

This study tests a special stent-graft, custom-shaped by your doctor to fit your aneurysm while keeping blood flow to important organs like your kidneys and stomach. It's for people with large aneurysms in the chest and belly who cannot safely have open surgery.
This trial tests a doctor-modified stent graft for treating complex aneurysms near the kidneys. It may be an option if your aneurysm is too complicated for standard devices and you are healthy enough for the procedure.
This study tests a custom-made stent graft (a fabric and metal tube) that is placed inside the aorta to fix a bulging area (aneurysm) without open surgery. It is for people whose aneurysms are complex and who are not good candidates for traditional surgery.
This trial tests a custom-made stent graft to repair complex aortic aneurysms that are hard to treat with standard surgery. It may help people who are at high risk for open surgery due to age, health, or past abdominal surgeries.
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 trial tests a doctor-customized stent graft placed through the groin to treat a dangerous bulge in the lower part of the aorta (an abdominal aortic aneurysm). It may help by improving how the graft fits, based on detailed measurements of your artery anatomy and your ability to attend follow-up visits.
