  • Patient is able to read and answer a questionnaire in English

Who cannot join

  • History of life-threatening reaction to contrast material
  • Unwilling or unable to provide informed consent, or return for required follow-up evaluations
  • Participating in another investigational study that has not completed follow-up testing
  • Cannot receive outpatient anticoagulation such as LMWH and/or vitamin K antagonists (VKAs)
  • Absolute contraindication to contrast media or renal insufficiency (baseline creatinine >2.0 mg/dL).
  • Either a history or presence of heparin-induced thrombocytopenia antibodies

About this study

Official title: Evaluation of GORE VIABAHN Endoprosthesis With Heparin Bioactive Surface for the Treatment of Venous Occlusions and Stenoses

To study the safety and efficacy of drug coated stents for the treatment of venous occlusions and stenoses in the lower extremity. The use of the device for the treatment of peripheral arterial disease is approved by the FDA, however, the use of the device in venous occlusions and stenoses, although performed by some practitioners, has not yet been studied in detail.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Gore Viabahn Heparin Coated StentDevice

    For subjects deemed to be suffering from chronic venous insufficiency of the femoral or popliteal veins, a Gore Viabahn stent will be implanted during a venoplasty procedure to determine whether the vein will stay open.

What is being measured

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

  1. Stent Migration

    Stent migration is reported as the count of participants with stent migration within 1 month following stent placement.

    Measured: up to 1 month following the procedure

  2. Stent Migration

    Stent migration is reported as the count of participants with stent migration within 1 year following stent placement.

    Measured: up to one year following the procedure 1 year

  3. Primary Patency Rate

    Patency refers to whether the stent is unoccluded (open). Primary patency rate was defined as the count of participants with >= 50% patency following initial stent placement, and is reported as the count of participants meeting this criteria.

    Measured: up to 1 year following the procedure

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. Freedom From Device-related Amputation

    Freedom from device-related amputation (amputation of infected limb) is reported as the count of participants with no device-related amputation within 1 year following stent placement.

    Measured: up to 1 year following the procedure

  2. Assisted-primary Patency

    Patency refers to whether the stent is unoccluded (open). Primary refers to the first time a stent was placed (or the first time patency needed to be established). Assisted refers to the fact that a device (like a balloon) was used to open the stent. Assisted-primary patency is defined as the count of participants that demonstrated the need for an intervention to establish patency.

    Measured: up to 1 year

  3. Secondary Patency

    Secondary patency means that the initial intervention failed and a second intervention was performed to establish or maintain patency. Secondary patency is defined as the count of participants that required a second intervention to establish patency.

    Measured: up to 1 year

  4. Adverse Events

    Adverse events were reported as the count of participants that experienced an adverse event within two years of their procedure.

    Measured: up to two years 2 years

  5. Decrease in Swelling of Affected Extremity

    The count of participants that experienced a decrease in swelling after the stent was placed.

    Measured: up to 2 years

  6. Venous Clinical Severity Score

    Venous Clinical Severity represents the severity of the venous pathology, which includes measures like pain, inflammation, and number of ulcers. It is scored on a scale of 0-3 with the upper end representing very severe outcomes for the patient.

    Measured: up to 2 years

  7. VEINS-QOL

    The VEINS-QOL is a questionnaire that represents a patient's quality of life, using measures like how well the patient can walk, sleep, and enjoy life. Responses are graded on a scale of 1-5, with 1 being very good, and 5 being very poor. The VEINS-QOL measure is defined by the count of participants that showed a decreased overall score following their procedure.

    Measured: Up to 2 years

  8. Villalta PTS Scale

    The Villalta PTS Scale is a score based on the patient's symptoms, includes cramps, pain, and redness. It is scaled from 0 to 48, with a higher score representing more severe disease.

    Measured: up to 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Gore Viabahn Heparin Coated Stent in people with Venous Thrombosis, run by Stanford University 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 5 inclusion and 6 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 27 Feb 2017. 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.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 27 Feb 2017). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Stent Migration (time frame: up to 1 month following the procedure). The study lists 3 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 27 Feb 2017; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
