New stent graft could save lives from deadly aortic tear
NCT ID NCT06827990
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Aug 12, 2026 · Updated 4 times
Summary
This study tests a new device called the GORE ascending stent graft to treat a serious tear in the main artery from the heart (Type A aortic dissection). About 112 people with a recent tear will receive the stent graft through a small tube in a blood vessel, avoiding open-heart surgery. The goal is to see if the device is safe and works well to prevent death, stroke, or the need for more procedures.
