About this study

Official title: A Prospective, Multicenter Study of the Cordis Endovascular QUANTUM LP™ Stent Graft System for the Treatment of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms (AAA)-FORTRON

The objective of this clinical study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of the Cordis Endovascular Quantum LP™ Stent Graft System.

Being tested
QUANTUM LP™ STENT GRAFT SYSTEM, Open surgical repair
Medical subject headings

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. To compare the aneurysm-related one-year mortality rates of the stent graft patients to open surgery patients. The purpose of having an aneurysm surgically or endovascularly repaired is to prevent death from AAA.

    Measured: One year

  2. To compare the one-year procedure-related severe adverse event rates of the stent graft patients to open surgery patients. These events exclude aneurysm-related deaths. The endpoint for this objective will be the occurrence of any serious adverse eve

    Measured: One year

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. To evaluate the occurrence of severe device-related adverse events as they relate to the cause of aneurysm exclusion failures (i.e., Type I and III endoleaks, significant AAA growth, or AAA rupture).

    Measured: 30 days, 6 mo, and annually up to five years

  2. To compare the rate and amount of blood products used in the stent graft procedure to open surgery.

    Measured: At procedure

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing QUANTUM LP™ STENT GRAFT SYSTEM and Open surgical repair in people with Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm, run by Cordis US Corp. at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 18 inclusion and 8 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 May 2009. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

To compare the aneurysm-related one-year mortality rates of the stent graft patients to open surgery patients. The purpose of having an aneurysm surgically or endovascularly repaired is to prevent death from AAA. (time frame: One year). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 1 May 2009.
