Shockwave™Peripheral Intravascular Lithotripsy Balloon for Advanced Endovascular Aortic Repair (TEVAR)

May 19, 2025 updated by: Rede Optimus Hospitalar SA

International Multi-center Study to Confirm the Safety and Performance of the Shockwave™Peripheral Intravascular Lithotripsy Balloon for Advanced Endovascular Aortic Repair

Shockwave TEVAR is a nonrandomized, prospective, international, multi-center, PMCF, obervational study.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the outcomes of the Shockwave™ Peripheral Intravascular Lithotripsy Balloon (Shockwave Medical Inc.) in the routine treatment of hostile iliac accesses during TEVAR and F/BEVAR.

Study Overview

Status

Status

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

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

Standardized forms will collect data on the performed procedure, underlying pathology, cardiovascular risks and information on preoperative examinations. Physiological parameters routinely measured prior, during and after any surgical intervention will be recorded as well. A 1 month, 6-months and 12-months follow-up visit will be conducted to assess adverse events and outcome of the index procedure.

In addition, this study aims to analyze the technical and procedure success to gain access via hostile iliac access vessels withShockwave Peripheral Intravascular Lithotripsy Balloon in patients submitted for complex endovascualre thoracic, throaco-abdominal or abdominal aortic repair.

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

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

Patient (m/f) age ≥ 18 years

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Patient (m/f) age ≥ 18 years at time of enrollment.
  2. Diagnosis of thoracic and/or thoraco-abdominal (Extent I-V) and juxta/para-renal/short-neck aneurysm requiring the implantation of a thoracic and/or thoraco-abdominal fenestrated/branched aortic endograft with delivery system introducer sheath diameter equal or larger than 18 Fr (6 mm).

  3. Hostile iliac access was defined in the presence of:

    • Heavily circumferential calcified iliac arteries
    • Inner diameter ≤ 6 mm
    • Severe stenosis (> 50%; > 2.5 m/s peak velocity; absence of triphasic duplex signal in ipsilateral common femoral artery)

  4. We will accept the following presentations of aneurysm:

    • urgent cases,
    • elective,
    • symptomatic
    • and fast growing.
  5. The repair was performed using Shockwave™ before the introduction of the main endograft. The iliac procedures can be accompanied by angioplasty and/or stent and stent-graft positioning.

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Patients submitted to surgical conduit bypass.
  2. Not-severely calcified disease (absence of calcification).
  3. In-stent restenosis/occlusion.
  4. Inability to cross with 0.014 guidewire.
  5. Any significant medical condition which, in the investigator's opinion, may interfere with the subject's optimal participation in the study.
  6. Pre-stented iliac access vessels at the level of Shockwave implementation.

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
