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.

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

14 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Subjects ≥18 years of age, requiring an elective or urgent, open aortic surgical procedure utilizing cardiopulmonary bypass. Subjects in Japan between ≥18 and <20 years of age will require consent by the subject's legal representative
  • Subjects must be willing to participate in the study and provide written informed consent.
  • Presence of an appropriate Target Bleeding Site (TBS) along the anastomotic suture line, involving a synthetic aortic graft, as identified intra-operatively by the investigator;

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Subjects with known intolerance to blood products or to one of the components of the study product or unwilling to receive blood products;
  • Exposure to another investigational drug or device in a clinical trial within 30 days prior to surgery or anticipated in the 60 day follow up period after surgery.
  • Female subjects who are pregnant or nursing.
  • TBS is from a large defects in visible arteries or veins where the injured vascular wall requires repair and maintenance of vessel patency or where there would be persistent exposure of EVARREST™ Fibrin Sealant Patch to blood flow and/or pressure during absorption of the product;
  • TBS with major arterial bleeding requiring suture or mechanical ligation;
  • TBS involves an expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) graft
  • TBS within an actively infected field;
  • Bleeding site is in, around, or in proximity to foramina in bone, or areas of bony confine;
  • Subjects with any intra-operative findings identified by the investigator that may preclude conduct of the study procedure;

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
Number of Participants With Hemostasis at the Target Bleeding Site (TBS) at 3 Minutes Following Treatment Application.
Time Frame: Intraoperative, 3 minutes following treatment application
Number of subjects achieving hemostasis at the Target Bleeding Site (TBS) at 3 minutes following treatment application, with no re-bleeding at the TBS any time prior to the initiation of final chest wall closure
Intraoperative, 3 minutes following treatment application

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 Participants With Hemostasis at the Target Bleeding Site (TBS) at 6 Minutes Following Treatment Application
Time Frame: Intraoperative, 6 minutes following treatment application
The number of subjects achieving hemostatic success at 6 minutes following treatment application with no re-bleeding at the TBS any time prior to the initiation of final chest wall closure.
Intraoperative, 6 minutes following treatment application
Number of Participants With Hemostasis at the Target Bleeding Site (TBS) at 10 Minutes Following Treatment Application
Time Frame: Intraoperative, 10 minutes following treatment application
The number of subjects achieving hemostatic success at 10 minutes following treatment application, with no re-bleeding at the TBS any time prior to the initiation of final chest wall closure.
Intraoperative, 10 minutes following treatment application
Number of Participants With Re-bleeding at the Target Bleeding Site (TBS) Requiring Additional Treatment
Time Frame: Intra-operative, prior initiation of final chest wall closure.
The number of subjects who, after the initial establishment of TBS hemostasis at 3 minutes, had intra-operative re-bleeding requiring treatment at the TBS
Intra-operative, prior initiation of final chest wall closure.

Study record dates

These dates track the progress of study record and summary results submissions to ClinicalTrials.gov. Study records and reported results are reviewed by the National Library of Medicine (NLM) to make sure they meet specific quality control standards before being posted on the public website.

Study Major Dates

Study Start (Actual)

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.
January 1, 2014

Primary Completion (Actual)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
July 1, 2015

Study Completion (Actual)

Study Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention/treatment to collect final data for the primary outcome measures, secondary outcome measures, and adverse events (that is, the last participant's last visit). The "anticipated" study completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the study completion date.
