Trial Outcomes & Findings for Safety and Efficacy of Angiotech Vascular Wrap Paclitaxel-Eluting Mesh for Hemodialysis Vascular Access (NCT NCT00448708)

NCT ID: NCT00448708

Last Updated: 2011-11-17

Results Overview

Subjects had primary patency at the target site from graft placement until an intervention on the target site occurred. The duration between graft implantation and graft abandonment due to loss of patency at the target site was the "time-to-loss of primary patency." Note: The study was halted early and therefore became underpowered to analyze efficacy as detailed in the protocol.
