About this study

Official title: Extensive Type A Dissections and Thoracic/ Thoraco-Abdominal

To prospectively evaluate the safety and efficacy of the LUPIAE hybrid technique for the treatment of

  • thoracic or thoraco-abdominal aortic aneurysms
  • thoracic aortic type A dissections 2. to compare the safety and efficacy of the LUPIAE hybrid technique with historical groups (literature review, other hybrid techniques, LUPIAE retrospective patients)
Read the detailed description

LUPIAE technique:

Hybrid repair of thoracic or thoraco-abdominal aneurysms of different etiology and type A dissections with a two-stage procedure:

  1. surgical arch reconstruction with a Dacron multibranched surgical prothesis
  2. endovascular implantation of a thoracic stent graft
Conditions
Aortic Aneurysm
Being tested
lupiae technique
Keywords
lupiae techinque, aortic aneurism, aortic dissection
Medical subject headings

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing lupiae technique in people with Aortic Aneurysm, run by IRCCS Azienda Ospedaliero-Universitaria di Bologna at 1 site in Italy.

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 11 inclusion and 7 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The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Jun 2011. 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 Italy. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

all cause mortality (time frame: 12 months). 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 28 Jun 2011.
