About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Pararenal Aortic Aneurysm

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - undefined (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Provision of signed and dated informed consent form
  2. Male or female, aged ≥18 years
  3. Expected survival beyond 1 year following successful aneurysm repair
  4. Anatomy that would require coverage of the celiac artery, superior mesenteric artery (SMA), and/or renal arteries if conventional, FDA-approved endograft were implanted to obtain adequate sealing zone length
  5. Aneurysm of the thoracoabdominal or pararenal aorta with or without chronic dissection
  6. Adequate proximal zone of fixation
  7. Adequate distal zone of fixation
  8. No more than 5 non-aneurysmal visceral (celiac, SMA, or renal) arteries with diameters between 4-12mm
  9. Adequate arterial access for delivery system; use of iliac conduit is permitted as necessary

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Moderate-to-severe aortic neck calcification, thrombus, or tortuosity
  2. Severe iliac stenosis, calcification, or tortuosity with no ability to perform a conduit
  3. Proximal landing within zone 0 or 1
  4. Inability to maintain at least one patent hypogastric artery
  5. Freely ruptured aneurysm with hemodynamic instability
  6. Non-ambulatory status
  7. Severe CHF
  8. Baseline eGFR < 30ml/min, unless currently on or to be initiating dialysis

  11. Active systemic infection and/or mycotic aneurysm
  12. Uncorrectable coagulopathy or other bleeding diathesis

  16. Major, unrelated surgical procedure planned ≤30 days from endovascular repair
  17. Patient is ≤30 days beyond primary endpoint for another investigative clinical drug/device trial

  19. Can be treated in accordance with the instructions for use with a legally marketed endovascular device, including a manufacturer-fabricated custom device
  20. Can enroll in a manufacturer-sponsored clinical study at our institution or is willing and eligible to participate in a study with a manufacturer-made device at another institution

Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm Type

Experimental

Arm Label

Physician-modified endografts

Arm Description

For this clinical protocol, endografts which are commercially available will be modified in a sterile fashion on a back-table in the operating room.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Number of subjects with 30-day major adverse events from primary procedure
Major adverse events include: aortic-related mortality, major stroke, myocardial Infarction, permanent spinal cord ischemia, renal failure, bowel Ischemia (requiring laparotomy/bowel resection), respiratory failure (mechanical ventilation >72 hours or requiring tracheostomy), lower extremity ischemia, blood loss ≥1,000cc
Number of subjects with treatment success
Treatment success is defined as a composite of: technical success, device integrity (freedom from stent fractures), freedom from aortic enlargement ≥5mm compared to preoperative CT imaging, freedom from aortic rupture, freedom from reintervention for type I or III endoleak or patency-related event, freedom from conversion to open aneurysm repair, freedom from aneurysm-related mortality.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Number of subjects with mortality, major adverse events, spinal cord ischemia
Mortality includes all-cause mortality. Major adverse events include: aortic-related mortality, major stroke, myocardial Infarction, permanent spinal cord ischemia, renal failure, bowel Ischemia (requiring laparotomy/bowel resection), respiratory failure (mechanical ventilation >72 hours or requiring tracheostomy), lower extremity ischemia, blood loss ≥1,000cc. Spinal cord ischemia data will include all incidence and degree of spinal cord ischemia.
Number of subjects with treatment success and freedom from secondary intervention
Treatment success is defined as a composite of: technical success, device integrity (freedom from stent fractures), freedom from aortic enlargement ≥5mm compared to preoperative CT imaging, freedom from aortic rupture, freedom from reintervention for type I or III endoleak or patency-related event, freedom from conversion to open aneurysm repair, freedom from aneurysm-related mortality. Freedom from secondary interventions includes interventions to treat malperfusion, rupture, aneurysm formation, aortic expansion, endoleak, device stenosis/occlusion, or access site complication.
