Stent graft for aortic conditions in the chest
Part of Heart & circulation, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a specific disease of the aorta, like an aortic aneurysm, a traumatic tear, or an aortic dissection that didn't get better with medicine or after surgery.
- You must be suitable for the TBE device based on your anatomy and the official instructions for use in Japan.
- The device is used to treat problems in the arch of the aorta and the upper part of the descending aorta while keeping blood flow to one branch vessel.
- The TBE may be used together with other already-approved stent grafts if needed.

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.
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 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 trial tests a new stent graft system for treating a thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm, a bulging of the main blood vessel in your chest and belly. It may be an option if your aneurysm is large, growing, or causing pain and you are healthy enough for the procedure.
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.
This trial tests a specialized multi-branch stent graft to treat a large or growing aneurysm in the aorta near the chest and abdomen. It mainly looks at safety and whether the stent keeps blood flowing to important arteries.
