NCT ID NCT07049913
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study is checking how well a device called the GORE® TAG® Thoracic Branch Endoprosthesis works for people with a thoracic aortic aneurysm, dissection, or injury. About 200 patients in Japan who receive this stent graft will be followed to see if it is safe and effective. The main goals are to ensure the device can be placed successfully and to track any serious complications like stroke, paralysis, or device problems.
