About this trial

This study is a single site, prospective, single arm evaluation of the safety and effectiveness of the Healionics STARgraft (10401) hemodialysis access graft.

The study is enrolling patients with End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) requiring hemodialysis via a prosthetic vascular graft. The study proposes to evaluate the performance of the investigational STARgraft (10401) compared to the ePTFE controls in a prior study (NCT03916731) and to published results, over a period of 6 months. Additional data out to 36 months post-implantation may be captured.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Effectiveness - Primary unassisted patency

Primary unassisted patency, defined as the percentage of grafts retaining adequate flow for dialysis without requiring any surgical or endovascular procedure to maintain or re-establish its function.

Time frame
6 months
2

Safety - Serious Device Related Adverse Events

Incidence of serious device-related adverse events.

Time frame
6 months

Secondary outcomes

1

Primary unassisted patency

Primary unassisted patency, defined as the percentage of grafts retaining adequate flow for dialysis without requiring any surgical or endovascular procedure to maintain or re-establish its function.

Time frame
12, 18, 24 and 36 months
2

Assisted primary patency

Measured as the percentage of patients retaining assisted primary patency at the timepoints. Assisted primary patency begins when an access requires surgical or endovascular interventions designed to maintain the functionality of a patent access and ends at the first occlusion (thrombosis).

Time frame
6, 12, 18, 24 and 36 months
3

Incidence of graft infections

Time frame
6, 12, 18, 24 and 36 months
4

Incidence of serious device-related adverse events

Time frame
12, 18, 24 and 36 months

Other outcomes

1

Flow rate in graft (ultrasound)

Time frame
6, 12, 18, 24 and 36 months
2

Peak Systolic Velocity Ratio at venous anastomosis (ultrasound)

Time frame
6, 12, 18, 24 and 36 months
3

Pulsatility index (ultrasound) in graft and in outflow vein

Time frame
6, 12, 18, 24 and 36 months
