EndoAnchor treatment for abdominal aortic aneurysm
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests a device called EndoAnchor, which is used during surgery to help secure a stent graft in place for people with an abdominal aortic aneurysm. It aims to improve the seal and reduce complications, potentially helping people whose aneurysm shape makes standard treatment riskier.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 or older.
- You have an abdominal aortic aneurysm (a bulging blood vessel in the belly) that is at least 4.5 cm (about 1.8 inches) wide for women or 5 cm (about 2 inches) wide for men.
- Your aneurysm has a shape that is considered high-risk (for example, a short or angled neck), and your doctor thinks you could benefit from this device.
- You are healthy enough for elective surgery and are expected to live more than 2 years.
- You do not have certain conditions like a recent heart attack, infection, or a ruptured aneurysm.
- You are willing to come back for follow-up visits as scheduled.

This trial studies an endovascular (through blood vessels) repair technique for an unruptured enlarged artery in the belly called an abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). It may help doctors compare outcomes using a randomized approach and structured follow-up.
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 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.
This trial tests a new stent graft device for treating abdominal aortic aneurysms. The device is placed inside the aneurysm to reinforce the artery and prevent rupture, which may help people who are candidates for this minimally invasive procedure.
This trial compares two procedures (ESAR and FEVAR) to repair an abdominal aortic aneurysm in people whose anatomy makes the usual repair hard. It may help find a safer, more durable option for patients with challenging aortic neck features.
This study compares two ways to treat an abdominal aortic aneurysm (a bulge in the lower part of the aorta). It looks at whether the newer approach works as well as standard EVAR in people whose aneurysm has a wider neck that may be harder to treat.
