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

  • Adult
  • Older Adult

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

    1. Aortic dissection aneurysm diameter ≥ 5.5cm
    2. The diameter of descending thoracic aorta dissection increased rapidly ≥5 mm/ year
    3. Symptoms associated with dissection progression, such as chest and back pain
  • The diameter of false lumen approximately 1 cm superiorly to the celiac trunk ≤40 mm
  • Appropriate anatomical conditions were assessed by imaging to allow the adjustable bend conveyor to enter the pseudolumen through tears of the iliac artery, subrenal aorta, or renal artery levels.
  • Those who can understand the purpose of the trial, voluntarily participate in the study, sign the informed consent form by themselves or their legal representative, and are willing to complete the follow-up according to the protocol requirements.

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.

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
No major adverse events within 30 days after operation.
Time Frame: 30 days after operation
Major adverse events within 30 days after operation refer to all-cause death, myocardial infarction, ischemic stroke, respiratory failure, renal failure, intestinal necrosis, paraplegia, and amputation within 30 days after operation. Among them, renal failure refers to long-lasting dialysis, kidney transplantation, or other fatal results. Intestinal necrosis is intestinal ischemia that requires bowel resection or other fatal consequences. Severe lower limb ischemia refers to new severe limp or resting pain after surgery.
30 days after operation
All-cause mortality
Time Frame: 30 days, 6 months, and 12 months after operation
All-cause mortality includes cardiac mortality, non-cardiac mortality, and mortality from unknown causes.
30 days, 6 months, and 12 months after operation
Aortic dissection-related mortality,
Time Frame: 30 days, 6 months, and 12 months after operation
Refers to mortality caused by a ruptured aortic dissection or endovascular interventional treatment.
30 days, 6 months, and 12 months after operation
Serious adverse events.
Time Frame: 30 days, 6 months, and 12 months after operation
Refers to an event that occurs during the clinical trial that results in mortality or serious deterioration in patient health, including a fatal illness or injury, a permanent defect in body structure or body function, or an event that requires medical or surgical intervention to avoid one or more permanent defects in body structure or body function.
30 days, 6 months, and 12 months after operation
False lumen thrombosis of the descending thoracic aorta
Time Frame: 1 month, 6 months, and 12 months after operation
False lumen thrombosis of the descending thoracic aorta (no thrombosis, partial thrombosis, complete thrombosis) observed by postoperative CTA review.
1 month, 6 months, and 12 months after operation
Aortic dissection progression under control
Time Frame: 1 month, 6 months, and 12 months after operation
Aortic dissection progression under control is defined as maximum increase in the diameter of false lumen diameter in descending thoracic aorta was ≤ 5 mm when compared with preoperative aortic dissection as of postoperative CTA review.
1 month, 6 months, and 12 months after operation
