New stent graft aims to fix dangerous artery bulges with fewer risks
NCT ID NCT07304102
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests a new stent graft device in 100 people with a bulging iliac artery (aneurysm). The device is placed inside the artery to support it and prevent rupture. Researchers will track serious complications like stroke, heart attack, or kidney problems over time to see if the device is safe and effective.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- GORE® EXCLUDER® IBE Plus Stent Graft (a fabric-covered metal tube placed inside the artery to reinforce it)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this device could offer a safer, less invasive way to repair iliac artery aneurysms, reducing the risk of serious complications like stroke or kidney failure.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early-stage, non-randomized trial with only 100 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. Risks include device-related complications such as blood clots or leaks.

Primary Arm Inclusion Criteria The subject is / has: 1. The target lesion and surrounding vasculature are amenable to treatment with IBE Plus system requirements: 1.1. Common iliac artery to be treated must have a common iliac diameter ≥ 25 mm with or without concomitant abdominal aortic aneurysm 1.2. Minimum diameter ≥ 12 mm within the proximal implantation zone of IBE Plus as assessed by flow lumen; calcium excluded 1.3. Intended treatment length must be ≥ 100 mm in unilateral application or a combination of ≥ 100 mm and ≥ 150 mm in bilateral application 1.4. The planned distal target landing zone within the internal iliac artery is within the trunk of the internal iliac artery with at least 15 mm of seal zone 1.5. Iliac vasculature meets anatomical specifications for selected VBX Stent Graft(s) 2. Aortoiliac vasculature meets anatomical specifications for selected EXC or EXCC Devices 3. Informed Consent Form (ICF) is signed by subject 4. Subject is capable of complying with protocol requirements, including follow-up 5. Life expectancy \> 2 years 6. Age ≥ 22 years at time of informed consent signature 7. Male or infertile female Secondary Arm Inclusion Criteria The subject is / has: 1. Present with any one of the following treatment indications: 1.1. The subject has a confirmed Type Ib endoleak of a previously implanted Gore EVAR device where its distal portion within the common iliac artery has a luminal diameter of at least 12 mm. Minimum diameter of ≥ 12 mm within the proximal implantation zone of IBE Plus as assessed by flow lumen; calcium excluded 1.2. The subject has documented diameter growth of the common iliac artery of at least ≥ 5 mm in the presence of a previously implanted Gore EVAR device where its distal portion within the common iliac artery has a luminal diameter of at least 12 mm. The planned distal target landing zone within the internal iliac artery is within the trunk of the internal iliac artery with at least 15 mm of seal zone 2. Aortoiliac vasculature meets anatomical specifications for selected EXC or EXCC Devices 3. Informed Consent Form (ICF) is signed by subject 4. Subject is capable of complying with protocol requirements, including follow-up 5. Life expectancy \> 2 years 6. Age ≥ 22 years at time of informed consent signature 7. Male or infertile female Primary Arm and Secondary Arm Exclusion Criteria The subject is / has: 1. Mycotic or ruptured aneurysm 2. ASA class V (moribund patient not expected to live 24 hours with or without operation) 3. Renal insufficiency defined as creatinine \> 1.8 mg/dL or undergoing dialysis 4. NYHA class IV 5. Dissected, heavily calcified, or heavily thrombosed landing zone(s) 6. Tortuous or stenotic iliac and/or femoral arteries preventing introducer sheath insertion and the inability to use a conduit for vascular access 7. Participating in another investigational drug or medical device study within one year of study enrollment 8. An active systemic infection (e.g., infection requiring treatment with parenteral anti-infective medication) that may place the patient at increased risk of endovascular infection. Subjects with a chronic infection (such as HIV, Hepatitis C, etc.) that is well controlled under their current treatment regimen may be eligible 9. Degenerative connective tissue disease, e.g., Marfan's or Ehler-Danlos Syndrome 10. Planned concomitant surgical procedure or major surgery within 30 days of treatment date 11. History of drug abuse, e.g., cocaine or amphetamine, within 1 year of treatment 12. Known sensitivities or allergies to the device materials
