Trial summary

Primary Objective: 1. To determine if the application of lidocaine to the airway will obtund or abolish the laryngeal reflexes. This in turn will lead to a quiescent controlled surgical field. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Prevention of Laryngeal Reflexes in Minimal Invasive Parathyroid Surgery by the Use of Topical Lidocaine

Primary Objective:

  1. To determine if the application of lidocaine to the airway will obtund or abolish the laryngeal reflexes. This in turn will lead to a quiescent controlled surgical field.
Read the detailed description

Lidocaine is a local anesthetic that causes numbness to the throat when misted into the air. This numbness in the throat should stop the urge to clear the throat in the middle of the operation. Therefore, this should stop the interruptions during the surgery.

If you agree to take part in this study, you will be randomly assigned (as in the toss of a coin) to one of 2 groups. Participants in Group 1 will receive the saline mist. This will moisturize and soothe the throat. Participants in Group 2 will receive the lidocaine mist. Lidocaine or saline is misted into the air that you breathe during the surgery. You and your surgeon will not be told which group you were assigned to. At the end of the surgery, your surgeon will answer some questions to help determine if the use of lidocaine or saline is beneficial.

You will be considered off-study once you are sent to the recovery room after surgery.

This is an investigational study. Lidocaine is FDA-approved and commercially available for local anesthesia. If you are in the lidocaine or the saline group. Up to 105 patients will take part in this study. All will be enrolled at M. D. Anderson.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Lidocaine and Saline in people with Parathyroid Disease, run by M.D. Anderson Cancer Center.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Dec 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Severity of Airway Interruption (time frame: Assessment made by surgeon during minimally invasive parathyroidectomy surgery). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 7 Dec 2012.
