Interventional device developer Cook has received a Food and Drug Administration investigational device exemption (IDE) to begin a clinical investigation of its Zenith TX2 endovascular graft for thoracic aortic aneurysms (TAA).
The Bloomington, IN-based firm received conditional approval for a clinical trial involving 140 subjects at 20 U.S. institutions, and patient enrollment will begin soon. Zenith TX2 is already approved for commercial distribution in Australia and Asia.
