Clinical Trials Gilles Soulez, MD is currently running
Bioresorbable Arterial Scaffold
for Peripheral Artery Disease
This trial tests a new dissolvable stent for patients with severe leg artery blockages. The stent helps improve blood flow, releases medicine to prevent re-blockage, and then dissolves gradually. This could reduce pain and lower the risk of amputation. Bioabsorbable stents have been extensively evaluated in coronary artery disease but remain challenging and less studied in lower extremities.

Biomechanical Modeling
for Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm
This project is aiming at the integration of a biomechanical computer program with a guidance code to simulate the endovascular repair (EVAR) procedure of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). The computational time associated with finite element simulation generally renders its usage impractical for real-time application. Based on data collected during clinical interventions and a priori knowledge of AAA and endovascular device mechanical modeling, the investigators are proposing a deformable registration between preoperative CT-scans and per-operative fluoroscopy that will take into account prior simulations of participant specific EVAR procedures. To avoid the computational cost of a full finite element simulation, the investigators propose a simplified and real-time compliant repetitive mechanical behaviour based on participant specific parameters. The results of this research will provide the Canadian industry with the first realistic deformable vascular geometry tool for live endovascular intervention guidance. The proposed biomechanical modeling can be translated to other vascular intervention procedure by adjusting the biomechanical parameters.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need insurance to participate in a trial?
Almost all clinical trials will cover the cost of the ‘trial drug’ — so no insurance is required for this. For trials where this trial drug is given alongside an already-approved medication, there may be a cost (which your insurance would normally cover).
What does Gilles Soulez, MD specialize in?
Gilles Soulez, MD focuses on Ascending Aortic Aneurysm and Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm. In particular, much of their work with Ascending Aortic Aneurysm has involved treating patients, or patients who are undergoing treatment.
Is Gilles Soulez, MD currently recruiting for clinical trials?
Yes, Gilles Soulez, MD is currently recruiting for 2 clinical trials in Montreal Quebec. If you're interested in participating, you should apply.
