Evaluation of the Cook Custom Aortic Endograft, the Zenith t-Branch Endovascular Graft, and Surgeon-Modified Endograft in Treating Aortic Pathologies

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

This is a single-center study to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of three investigational devices, the Cook Custom Aortic Endograft, the Zenith t-Branch Endovascular Graft, and the Surgeon-Modified Endografts in the treatment of Juxtarenal, Suprarenal, Thoracoabdominal, and Aortic Arch pathologies involving the at least one brachiocephalic artery or visceral vessels. The three investigational devices offer an endovascular approach to treat complex aortic pathologies that cannot be treated with commercially available devices. This customized, endovascular approach has the potential to decrease hospital length of stay, pulmonary complications, and in-hospital mortality.

Ages Eligible for Study:18 Years
Sexes Eligible for Study:ALL
Accepts Healthy Volunteers:No
Standard Ages:ADULT, OLDER_ADULT
Inclusion CriteriaExclusion Criteria
  1. * Juxtarenal, suprarenal, and thoracoabdominal aortic pathology as follows in hemodynamically stable patients:
  2. 1. Intact or contained ruptured aortic or aortoiliac aneurysms (atherosclerotic/degenerative or saccular) involving or in close approximation to the visceral segment of the aorta.
  3. 1. Diameter \> 5.5 cm if asymptomatic, or 5.0 cm with enlargement of \> 0.5 cm in 6 months.
  4. 2. History of growth \> 0.5 cm per year
  5. 3. Any size if ruptured or symptomatic
  6. 2. Penetrating aortic ulcer (PAU)
  7. 1. \> 2.0 cm in depth
  8. 2. Any size if contained ruptured or symptomatic
  9. 3. Subacute (\>14 days) or chronic (\>20 days) aortic dissection with aneurysmal degeneration with at least one of the following:
  10. 1. Total aortic diameter \> 5.5 cm if asymptomatic
  11. 2. Total aortic diameter \> 4.5 cm if symptomatic
  12. 3. Total aortic diameter \> 5.0 cm and history of growth \> 0.5 cm in 6 months
  13. * Aortic Arch pathology:
  14. 1. Aneurysm, Ascending thoracic aortic pseudoaneurysm, Type A thoracic aortic dissection, Retrograde type A thoracic aortic dissection between the Sinus of Valsalva and the innominate artery orifice (without involvement of the Aortic Valve), or Ascending penetrating aortic ulcer with and without intramural hematoma
  15. 2. Suitable iliac artery and brachial artery access
  16. 3. Absence of severe landing zone (\> 90 degree) angulation that would preclude necessary device delivery/seal/fixation.
  17. 4. Suitable iliac artery access to accommodate device delivery system.
  18. 5. Target arteries for arch branches:
  19. 1. \< 24 mm diameter
  20. 2. Adequate landing zone length to obtain proximal and distal seal.
  21. 3. Free from dissection precluding adequate seal in distal landing zone of branch stent and severe tortuosity/thrombus/calcification.
  22. * Aortic Arch Aneurysm
  23. 1. Proximal aortic fixation zone:
  24. 1. Native aorta or surgical graft
  25. 2. Diameter: 20 - 42 mm
  26. 2. Proximal neck length \> 20 mm
  27. 3. Must occur distal to coronary arteries and any coronary artery bypass grafts that are considered patent and necessary for proper cardiac perfusion.
  28. 4. Distal aortic fixation zone:
  29. 1. Native aorta or surgical graft
  30. 2. Diameter: 20 - 44 mm
  31. 5. Distal neck length \> 20 mm. However, if dissection, distal graft may land in dissected aorta.
  32. 6. Supra-aortic trunk (brachiocephalic) vessels (Any combination of arteries may be used for repair) A. Innominate artery
  33. 1. Native vessel or surgical graft
  34. 2. Diameter: 8 - 22 mm
  35. 3. Length of sealing zone \> 10 mm
  36. 4. Acceptable tortuosity B. Left (or right) common carotid artery
  37. 1. Native vessel or surgical graft
  38. 2. Diameter 5 - 20 mm
  39. 3. Length of sealing zone \> 10 mm C. Left (or right) subclavian artery
  40. 1. Native vessel or surgical graft
  41. 2. Diameter 5 - 20 mm
  42. 3. Length of sealing zone \> 10 mm
  43. * Aortic Dissection
  44. 1. Access into the true lumen from the groin and at least one supra-aortic trunk vessel.
  45. 2. Seal zone in the target aorta (or surgical graft) that is proximal to the primary dissection, such that a stent-graft would be anticipated to seal off the dissection lumen.
  46. 3. Seal zone in the target supra-aortic trunk vessels that is distal to the dissection, anticipated to seal off the dissection lumen or surgically created.
  47. 4. True lumen size large enough to deploy the device and still gain access into the target branch.
  1. * Less than 18 years of age
  2. * Life expectancy less than 12 months based on the surgeon's assessment
  3. * Pregnant or breastfeeding or planning on becoming pregnant within 60 months
  4. * Inability or refusal to give informed consent
  5. * Unwilling or unable to comply with the follow-up schedule
  6. * Less than 30 days beyond primary endpoint for other investigative drug or device study
