Phase 3
Completed
Conditions
End Stage Kidney Disease
Arteriovenous Fistula
End Stage Renal Disease
ESRD
Chronic Kidney Failure
Vascular Access Complication
Complication of Renal Dialysis
Complication of Hemodialysis
Interventions
Procedure: AV Fistula Surgery
Drug: Sirolimus
Device: Sirolimus-eluting Collagen Implant (SeCI)
Registration Number
NCT02513303
Lead Sponsor
Vascular Therapies, Inc.
Brief Summary

The objective of this study is to evaluate efficacy and safety outcomes following use of the Sirolimus-eluting Collagen Implant (SeCI) in subjects undergoing surgical creation of an AV fistula for vascular access (index procedure).

Detailed Description

The objective of this study is to evaluate efficacy and safety outcomes following use of the Sirolimus-eluting Collagen Implant (SeCI) in subjects undergoing surgical creation of an AV fistula for vascular access (index procedure). Following successful creation of the AV fistula, the cohort randomized to the treatment group will receive the SeCI; the control group will not receive an implant. The primary hypothesis is that the proportion of subjects that meet requirements for fistula suitability for dialysis six months following the index procedure will be higher in the treatment group in comparison to the control group.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Fistula Suitability for Dialysis at 6 Months (FSD6)6 months

For subjects who are on hemodialysis by day 150, suitability for dialysis will be determined by the ability to use the fistula for dialysis using 2-needles with a mean dialysis machine blood pump speed of ≥300 mL/min for two-thirds of the dialysis sessions during a 30 day suitability ascertainment period that begins 150 days after fistula creation.

For subjects who are not on hemodialysis on day of enrollment and who do not initiate hemodialysis by day 150, suitability for dialysis will be determined by a vascular ultrasound performed at the 6 month follow up visit. Suitability for dialysis will be defined as a fistula with an access vein diameter (AVD) of ≥6 mm (internal diameter) and an access blood flow of ≥500 mL/min.
