Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Study Type

Study Type

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.
Interventional

Enrollment (Actual)

Enrollment

The number of participants in a clinical study. The "anticipated" enrollment is the target number of participants that the researchers need for the study.
30

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • The subject is either a male or non-pregnant female ≥ 18 years old.
  • The subject has been properly informed about the study per IRB requirements, and has signed and dated the IRB-approved ICF.
  • The subject is willing to comply with the protocol requirements and can be contacted by telephone.
  • The subject has a synthetic AV access graft located in an arm that has been implanted for > 30 days and has undergone at least one successful dialysis session prior to the index procedure.
  • Angiographic evidence indicates that the subject has a stenosis of >50% located at the graft-vein anastomosis of the subject's synthetic AV access graft.
  • The target lesion is estimated to be ≤ 7 cm in length by angiography prior to performance of any interventional procedures.
  • The entire target lesion is located within 7 cm of the graft-vein anastomosis, as verified by angiography, such that approximately 1 cm of the FLAIR™ Endovascular Stent Graft will extend into non-diseased vein and approximately 1 cm but no more than 2 cm of the FLAIR™ Endovascular Stent Graft will extend into non-diseased AV graft.
  • Graft diameter at the deployment site is between 5 mm and 8 mm, as verified by angiography.
  • Full expansion of an appropriately sized angioplasty balloon, in the operator's judgment, can be achieved during primary angioplasty.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • The subject has a life expectancy of < 6 months.
  • The presence of a previously placed stent and/or stent graft located in the treatment area. The treatment area is defined as the entire target lesion and 1 cm of landing zone into both non-diseased AV graft and non-diseased vein.
  • The subject has an infected AV access graft or other infection.
  • The location of the target lesion would require that the FLAIR™ Endovascular Stent Graft be deployed fully across the elbow joint.
  • The location of the target lesion would require that the FLAIR™ Endovascular Stent Graft cross an angle (between the outflow vein and synthetic AV access graft) that is > 90 degrees.
  • The subject has an uncorrected blood coagulation disorder.
  • The subject has a known allergy or sensitivity to contrast media which cannot be adequately pre-medicated.
  • Subject is currently enrolled or scheduled to be enrolled in other investigations that conflict with follow-up testing or confounds data in this trial.
  • The subject has a known hypersensitivity to nickel-titanium.

Study Plan

This section provides details of the study plan, including how the study is designed and what the study is measuring.

How is the study designed?

Design Details

  • Primary Purpose: Treatment
  • Allocation: N/A
  • Interventional Model: Single Group Assignment
  • Masking: None (Open Label)

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm

Participant Group / Arm

A group or subgroup of participants in a clinical trial that receives a specific intervention/treatment, or no intervention, according to the trial's protocol.
Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.
Experimental: FLAIR Endovascular Stent Graft and Delivery System
Device: FLAIR™ Endovascular Stent Graft
The FLAIR™ Endovascular Stent Graft is designed to treat venous anastomotic stenoses of AV access grafts, providing both structural support of the site following angioplasty (stent), and a barrier to locally recurrent flow-limiting neointimal tissue growth (covering/graft).

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Technical Success for Delivery
Time Frame: Measured at the time of implantation (Day 0)
defined as deployment of the implant to the intended location, assessed at the time of the index procedure.
Measured at the time of implantation (Day 0)

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Number of Device/Procedure-related Adverse Events(Safety of Delivery)
Time Frame: Index Procedure to 30 days
Device/Procedure-related adverse events from the index procedure through 30 days post procedure
