September 26, 2024 updated by: Artivion Inc.

Post-market, Prospective Evaluation of PHOTO-oxidized Decellularized Bovine Pericardium Used as a Patch in Vascular Repair and Reconstruction Surgery

The objective of this post-market clinical follow-up study is to evaluate the clinical outcomes of patients receiving PhotoFix as a patch within a vascular repair or reconstruction procedure.

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.

Detailed Description

PhotoFix is prepared from bovine pericardium, which is stabilized using a dye-mediated photo-oxidation process and sterilized using aseptic processing techniques. The primary endpoint for patients with carotid artery stenosis (CAS) undergoing carotid endarterectomies (CEA) will be rate of ipsilateral central neurologic events; the primary endpoint for all other vascular procedures will be primary patency. The secondary endpoints include all-cause reoperation rate, device-related reoperation rate, explant rate, restenosis rate, secondary patency (hemodialysis access repair (HAR) only) and survival. A goal of 100 patients will be enrolled at approximately 10 sites. The enrollment period will span a minimum of 8 months from Institutional Review Board (IRB) approval and site activation. Candidates for this study are adults who require vascular repair or reconstruction surgery that necessitates the use of a patch. Patients will be consented pre-operatively and enrolled patients will be followed for approximately 6 months after PhotoFix surgery. Data will be collected at 5 time points: baseline (pre-operatively), intra-operatively, 1 month post-operatively, 3 months post-operatively, and 6 months post-operatively.

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

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: Treatment
All patients will undergo a vascular repair or reconstruction surgery, which requires the use of PhotoFix. The surgical procedures will vary by patient and by underlying etiology. Therefore, PhotoFix implant sites will also vary. In all cases, PhotoFix will be implanted per the Instructions for Use (IFU).
Device: PhotoFix

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
Incidence of Central Neurologic Events
Time Frame: Up to 6 months, post-op
For cases of carotid endarterectomy (CEA) only: Percent of patients who experienced at least one of the central neurologic events of interest (transient ischemic attack, amaurosis fugax, stroke, carotid occlusion).
Up to 6 months, post-op
Primary Patency
Time Frame: Up to 6 months, post-op
For all other procedures (non-CEAs): Loss of patency includes loss of previously palpable pulses, presentation of recurrent symptoms, a drop in ABI>0.15 in the case of lower limb artery repair, Doppler ultrasound findings of occlusion, angiography of the affected vessel or a combination of these. Loss of patency will also be considered if an intervention to restore or maintain patency is documented.
Up to 6 months, post-op

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
Overall Survival
Time Frame: Up to 6 months, post-op
Percent of patients surviving
Up to 6 months, post-op
All-Cause Re-operation Rate
Time Frame: Up to 6 months, post-op
Percent of patients requiring re-operations
Up to 6 months, post-op
Device-Related Re-operation Rate
Time Frame: Up to 6 months, post-op
Percent of patients requiring unplanned re-operations that are documented as possibly, probably or definitely, device-related.
Up to 6 months, post-op
Explant Rate
Time Frame: Up to 6 months, post-op
Percent of patients requiring device explants. Explants will include the removal of PhotoFix for any reason after implantation.
Up to 6 months, post-op
Adverse Event Rate
Time Frame: Up to 6 months, post-op
Percent of patients who experienced at least one adverse event.
Up to 6 months, post-op
Restenosis Rate
Time Frame: Up to 6 months, post-op
Percent of patients who develop stenosis. Stenosis is considered as the recurrence of abnormal narrowing of an artery or vein after corrective surgery. Categorization of stenosis ≥ 50% will occur if data is available.
Up to 6 months, post-op
Secondary Patency
Time Frame: Up to 6 months, post-op
For all hemodialysis access repairs only: Time from implantation to the point where the access is abandoned.
Up to 6 months, post-op
