Stent-Graft device under scrutiny for aortic aneurysm and dissection repair
NCT ID NCT06507865
First seen Jul 08, 2026 · Last updated Jul 31, 2026 · Updated 3 times
Summary
This study tracks the safety and effectiveness of the GORE® TAG® Thoracic Branch Endoprosthesis, a stent-graft device used to treat aortic arch and descending aorta conditions such as aneurysms, dissections, and transections. Researchers will follow about 155 patients who receive the device as part of standard care, monitoring outcomes like technical success, device-related complications, and survival. The goal is to gather real-world data on how well the device performs over the medium term.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- GORE® TAG® Thoracic Branch Endoprosthesis (a stent-graft device)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this study could confirm that the device is a safe and effective long-term option for treating complex aortic conditions, potentially reducing the need for open surgery.
- What could go wrong
- This is an observational registry, not a controlled trial, so results may not prove cause and effect. Risks include stroke, spinal cord injury, device migration, or need for additional procedures.

Who can take part
This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.
Who is studied
Registry participants are derived from patients presenting with vascular disease that may benefit from the placement of an endovascular stent graft. The target registry population is patients who are treated with TBE at participating sites. Only patients who meet all the inclusion and none of the exclusion criteria will be included in the registry. The registry has been designed with broad eligibility criteria to optimize the visibility of overall registry device use. An integral requirement to the target subject population is that the decision to use a TBE product has been made prior to considering the patient for possible registry participation. The TBE registry population will be defined as a successful recipient of TBE at the end of the index procedure.

Inclusion Criteria: Patient or legally authorized representative (LAR) provides written authorization and/or consent per institution and geographical requirements Patient has been or is intended to be treated with an eligible registry device Patient is age ≥ 18 years at time of informed consent signature. Exclusion Criteria: Patient who is, at the time of consent, unlikely to be available for standard of care (SOC) follow-up visits as defined by the site's guidelines and procedures. Patient with exclusion criteria required by local law. Patient is currently enrolled in or plans to enroll in any concurrent drug and/or device study within 12 months of Together Registry enrollment. Subjects cannot be enrolled in another Together Registry module protocol.
