SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Agenda: The meeting presentations will be heard, viewed, captioned, 
and recorded through an online teleconferencing platform. On November 
2, 2021, the committee will discuss and make recommendations on 
information about the benefit-risk profile of the Endologix AFX 
endovascular graft system with regards to the risk of Type III 
endoleaks. FDA requests panel input regarding the totality of data 
collected on AFX devices and whether further actions are necessary.
    On November 3, 2021, the committee will discuss and make 
recommendations on the continued safety and effectiveness of 
endovascular stent grafts and how to strengthen real-world data 
collection on long-term performance of the devices, both for currently 
marketed devices and for future technologies. FDA intends to request 
panel input on the clinical outcomes that are most relevant to capture 
in the real world, along with their frequency and duration. 
Additionally, FDA intends to seek input on data collection platforms, 
and how to incentivize and optimize real world data collection.
    FDA intends to make background material available to the public no 
later than 2 business days before the meeting. If FDA is unable to post 
the background material on its website prior to the meeting, the 
background material will be made publicly available on FDA's website at 
the time of the advisory committee meeting, and the background material 
will be posted on FDA's website after the meeting. Background material 
and the link to the online teleconference meeting room will be 
available at https://www.fda.gov/advisory-committees/circulatory-
