Outcomes from the first-in-human (FIH) trial of the investigational Nectero endovascular aneurysm stabilisation treatment (EAST) system (Nectero Therapeutics) with pentagalloylglucose (PGG) demonstrated a clinically meaningful low annual abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) growth rate. Through two years, 41 patients (median baseline AAA 4.3cm) treated with PGG had a median annual growth rate of 1mm per year, representing a significant reduction in the expected growth rate. Andrew Holden (Auckland City Hospital, Auckland, New Zealand), Ramon Varcoe (University of New South Wales, Sydney, Australia) and Jason Lee (Stanford Medicine, Stanford, USA) sat down with Michael Jaff (Harvard Medical School, Boston, USA) to discuss the significance of the results at CX 2026, where the data were presented.
