Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Adults (18+) treated or planned to be treated with the GORE TAG Conformable Thoracic Stent Graft with ACTIVE CONTROL for descending thoracic aortic aneurysm, dissection, or related lesions who can provide consent and attend routine follow-up are ideal candidates.

Probably not a fit

Patients who are not treated with the GORE TAG device, cannot comply with follow-up, or are participating in conflicting investigational studies may not receive benefit from registry participation.

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

An observational, prospective post-market registry will collect mid- and long-term clinical data on patients treated with the GORE® TAG® Conformable Thoracic Stent Graft with ACTIVE CONTROL as part of routine TEVAR care. Enrolled adults (≥18) who receive the device at participating centers will be followed according to local standard-of-care schedules, with planned follow-up out to ten years. Data collected will include procedural details, device performance, aortic-related outcomes, complications, and survival. The registry aims to characterize real-world durability and safety of the device across multiple centers and patient presentations.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, the registry could confirm the long-term durability and safety of the GORE TAG device and help guide clinician and patient decisions on selection and follow-up after TEVAR.

How similar studies have gone: Endovascular repair with devices like the GORE TAG has substantial supporting literature and prior post-market registries showing favorable mid-term outcomes, though device-specific 10-year data are relatively limited.

Who can join: the full rules

Show full inclusion / exclusion criteria
Inclusion Criteria:

1. Patient or legally authorized representative (LAR) provides written authorization and/or consent per institution and geographical requirements.
2. Patient has been or is intended to be treated with an eligible registry device.\*
3. Patient is age ≥ 18 years at time of informed consent signature.

   * The intent to treat a patient with a Gore product must be made prior to soliciting for possible registry participation. If pre-procedure consent is not feasible due to emergent situation, consent prior to the time of discharge for the index procedure is acceptable.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. 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.
2. Patient with exclusion criteria required by local law.
3. Patient is currently enrolled in or plans to enroll in any concurrent investigational drug and/or investigational device study\* within 12 months of Together Registry enrollment. Subjects cannot be enrolled in another Together Registry module protocol.

   * The term "study" does not apply to other observational registries or quality improvement projects. Collection of Registry Device performance from interventional studies may be permissible provided device application is not investigational and there are no novel requirements that alter follow-up conduct (i.e., protocol-mandated interventions).
