About this study
Official title: Endurant Stent Graft System vs Excluder Endoprothesis: A Global, Prospective, Randomized Clinical Trial in Sac Regression
The purpose of this trial is to generate clinical evidence related to key performance outcomes of Endurant II/IIs Stent Graft Systems verses Gore Excluder / Excluder Conformable AAA Endoprosthesis in subjects with Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms. Subjects are randomized and imaging collected at all follow-up time points to assess the primary endpoint.
Read the detailed description
This is a post-market, prospective, interventional, global, multi-center, randomized, dual-arm clinical trial. The primary objective of this trial is to evaluate sac regression outcomes of the Medtronic Endurant II/IIs Stent Graft System and Gore Excluder/Excluder Conformable AAA Endoprosthesis in standard EVAR subjects. Subjects are randomized on a 1:1 basis to receive EVAR with either a Medtronic Endurant II/IIs Stent Graft Systems or Gore Excluder / Excluder Conformable AAA Endoprosthesis. Data is collected pre- and post-procedure at discharge, at 30 days, and once a year until the 5-year follow-up is completed. Approximately 600 subjects are planned to be enrolled at up to 100 sites globally.
Product Names:
- Medtronic Endurant II/IIs Stent Graft System
- Gore Excluder and/or Gore Excluder Conformable AAA Endoprosthesis Imaging is collected for all follow-up time points and are evaluated by a core lab for the key primary and secondary objectives.
- Conditions
- Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm, Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm >= 5.5 Centimeters in Male (Disorder), Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm >= 5.0 Centimeters in Female (Disorder)
- Being tested
- Medtronic Endurant II or Endurant IIs Stent Graft System, Gore Excluder or Gore/ Excluder Conformable AAA Endoprosthesis
- Keywords
- EVAR, AAA
- Medical subject headings
- Aortic Aneurysm, Abdominal

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Sac Regression
Proportion of patients with sac regression at 1 year, defined in accordance with SVS guidelines as the reduction in maximum diameter by >= 5 mm when compared to the first CT imaging study obtained within 90 days after index procedure.
Measured: 12 months
Secondary outcomes (6)
Aneurysm sac change by diameter as a continuous variable
Measured: 12 months and annually to 5 years
Aneurysm sac change by volume incidence rate
Measured: 12 months and annually to 5 years
Type II endoleak incidence rate
Measured: 30 days, 12 months and annually to 5 years
Type I endoleak incidence rate
Measured: 30 days,12 months and annually to 5 years
Secondary intervention incidence rate
Measured: 30 days, 12 months and annually to 5 years
All cause mortality incidence rate
Measured: 30 days, 12 months and annually to 5 years
