Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Technical Success

    Technical Success as demonstrated by the feasibility to fill the AAA sac after EVAR during the same procedure, and by the rate of (all) endoleaks after EVAR followed by the AneuFix procedure

    24 hours

  • Clinical Success rate

    Clinical Success as demonstrated by the occurrence of type II endoleaks at 6 months after EVAR, and aneurysmal sac growth at 6 months after EVAR

    6 months

  • Clinical Success rate

    Clinical Success as demonstrated by the occurrence of type II endoleaks at 12 months after EVAR, and aneurysmal sac growth at 12 months after EVAR

    12 months

Secondary Outcomes (7)

  • Intraoperative occurrence of complications

    24 hours

  • Peri-operative complications

    30 days

  • Prevention of (any type of) endoleak

    1, 6 and 12 months

  • adverse events

    1, 6 and 12 months

  • Re-interventions

    1, 6 and 12 months

  • +2 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (1)

Intervention

EXPERIMENTAL

Device: ANEUFIX

Device: Prophylactic sac filling with AneuFix

Interventions

ANEUFIX is administered by injection into the AAA via transferal access at the time of EVAR placement using imaging techniques to guide the place of injection.

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Asymptomatic, infrarenal AAA that requires surgery with a high-risk profile of developing endoleak type II in line with the recommendations of Guntner et al:
  • \- Open IMA AND
  • patent lumbar AND a cross-sectional area at the location of the IMA (CSAIMA) \>17,5cm2 OR
  • patent lumbars AND a CSAIMA \>15cm2 OR
  • patent lumbars AND a CSAIMA \>12,5 cm2 OR
  • patent lumbars AND a CSAIMA \>10 cm2 OR
  • patent lumbars AND a CSAIMA \>7,5 cm2
  • Infrarenal neck according to the IFU of the EVAR device
  • Other aortic-iliac anatomical configuration suitable for EVAR according to the criteria of the EVAR device to be used
  • Patient having a life expectation of at least 2 years
  • Being older than 18 years
  • Willing and able to comply with the requirements of this clinical study

You may not qualify if:

  • Patient not able or willing to give written Informed Consent
  • Patient undergoing emergency procedures
  • Patient undergoing EVAR for ruptured or symptomatic AAA,
  • Patient with a suprarenal AAA
  • Patient with an inflammatory AAA (more than minimal wall thickening)
  • Patient with an infrarenal neck unsuitable for endovascular fixation (including so called "hostile necks") or aortic-iliac anatomic configuration otherwise unsuitable for EVAR according to criteria of the device to be used
  • Patient in which a bilateral retroperitoneal incision is required for EVAR
  • Patient in which a sacrifice of both hypogastric arteries is required
  • Patient with anatomical variations, i.e. horseshoe-kidney, arteries requiring reimplantation
  • Patient in which the administration of contrast agent is not possible: proved, severe systemic reaction to contrast agent
  • Patient with active infection present
  • Patients scheduled for or having received an organ transplant
  • Patient with limited life expectation due to other illness (\<1 year)
  • Patient with non-iatrogenic bleeding diathesis
  • Patient with connective tissue disease
  • +2 more criteria

Model Details: The current study is a follow-up study on the previous feasibility study where ACP-T5 was used. After increasing the % tantalum in ANEUFIX to make the product more detectable under X-ray, the current study is a pilot study that (1) evaluates the technical feasibility of the prophylactic use of AneuFix during EVAR implentation and (2) assesses the rate of endoleaks after EVAR in 5 patients.
