Clinical Trial Summary

Compare the 30-day safety and efficacy of the GORE® Embolic Filter used in conjunction with FDA-approved carotid stents to a performance goal obtained from carotid stent studies utilizing distal embolic protection.


Clinical Trial Description

Continuous advances in angioplasty techniques and the development of low-profile, flexible, tapered nitinol stents designed specifically for carotid applications have made CAS a viable alternative to CEA. Advances in embolic protection technology will assist in moving CAS forward as a universally accepted procedure. While the GORE® Embolic Filter is similar in many ways to other currently available filters, it has been designed to provide optimal vessel wall apposition. Bench tests suggest that the wall apposition may provide improved filter efficiency, thereby minimizing embolization of particles downstream and potentially decreasing adverse clinical effects. In addition, preclinical testing suggests that the GORE® Embolic Filter has improved deliverability, including torque ability and lesion cross that may improve the ability of the system to access and treat tight lesions in tortuous anatomy. Thus, the purpose of this multi-center clinical study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of the GORE® Embolic Filter when used to provide cerebral embolic protection during carotid artery angioplasty and stenting. ;
