Inclusion Criteria
  • ≥18 years of age
  • A candidate for elective EVAR of an infrarenal aortic aneurysm ≥5.5 cm in diameter in men and ≥5.0 cm in women
Exclusion Criteria
  • An inability to provide informed consent
  • Enrolled in another clinical study
  • Aortoiliac aneurysm, or concomitant iliac artery ectasia or aneurysm (common iliac artery diameter >24 mm) close to the bifurcation and/or that cannot be adequately sealed
  • Patent AAA sac feeding vessels (within the sac) >4 mm in diameter
  • Volume of AAA sac to be filled after stent graft placement <20 mL or >135 mL, based on pre-procedure CTA (i.e. aortic flow volume exclusive of stent graft volume)
  • Use of aortic stent grafts other than the Gore Excluder AAA Endoprosthesis, Cook Zenith Flex AAA Endovascular Graft, or Medtronic Endurant II Stent Graft to treat the AAA
  • Planned use of the chosen stent graft outside its instructions for use (IFU)
  • Planned use of fenestrated or chimney stent grafts
  • Study participants in which stent graft placement is abandoned for any reason, and/or in which the investigator decides, during the course of the stent graft placement, that the study procedure may not be appropriate
  • Planned use of embolic devices other than the investigational product to embolize the AAA sac
  • Vascular disease and/or anatomy that preclude the safe access and positioning of a catheter to deliver the investigational product into the AAA sac
  • Ruptured, leaking, or mycotic (infected) aneurysm
  • Aneurysmal disease of the descending thoracic aorta
  • Coagulopathy or uncontrolled bleeding disorder
  • Long-term (>6 months prior to the procedure) use of direct oral anticoagulant or any vitamin K antagonist anticoagulant use
  • Serum creatinine level >2.5 mg/dL;
  • Cerebrovascular accident within 3 months prior to the procedure
  • Myocardial infarction and/or major heart surgery within 3 months prior to the procedure
  • Atrial fibrillation that is not well rate controlled
  • Unable or unwilling to comply with study follow-up requirements
  • Life expectancy of <2 years post-procedure
  • Known hypersensitivity or contraindication to platinum, iridium, or polyurethane
  • A condition that inhibits radiographic visualization during the implantation procedure
  • History of allergy to contrast medium that cannot be managed medically
  • Uncontrolled co-morbid medical condition, including mental health issues, that would adversely affect participation in the study
  • Pregnant or a lactating female. For females of child-bearing potential, based on a positive pregnancy test within 7 days prior to the procedure or refusal to use a medically accepted method of birth control for the duration of the study
  • Prisoner or member of other vulnerable population.
