About this study

Official title: Diagnostic Value of Endobronchial Ultrasound(EBUS) With a Guide Sheath(GS) for Peripheral Pulmonary Lesions(PPLs) Without Fluoroscopy: a Randomized Controlled Trial

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of endobronchial ultrasound-guide sheath(EBUS-GS) for the diagnosis of peripheral pulmonary lesions (PPLs) without radiographic fluoroscopy.

Read the detailed description

The investigators evaluated the efficacy and safety of transbronchial biopsy (TBB) and bronchial brushing by endobronchial ultrasonography (EBUS) with a guide sheath (GS) as a guide for diagnosing peripheral pulmonary lesions (PPLs) without radiographic fluoroscopy.The study is designed as a two-center prospective randomized controlled trial. The participating centers are Department of pulmonary medicine and endoscope center, Shanghai chest Hospital affiliated to Shanghai JiaoTong University School, China. Department of pulmonary medicine, Fukushima Medical University, Japan.Patients are divided into two groups, EBUS-GS-X-ray group and EBUS-GS group.Each subject will be randomized to each group.The study is expected to enroll 100 patients at 2 centers (China:75, Fukushima:25).

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • EBUS-GSProcedure or surgery

    EBUS is performed using an endoscope ultrasound system , which is equipped with a 20-MHz mechanical radial-type probe (UM-S20-17S;Olympus) with an external diameter of 1.4 mm and a GS (K-201; Olympus).

  • X-rayProcedure or surgery

    The radiograph fluoroscopy are performed when the probe and GS are confirmed to reach the lesion by EBUS images ,cytologic and pathologic specimens are obtained under fluoroscopic guidance.

Study groups in NCT01895166
Study groupRoleWhat they receive

EBUS-GS-X-ray groupActive comparatorThe EBUS probe and GS are confirmed to reach the lesion by EBUS images and radiograph fluoroscopy, cytologic and pathologic specimens are obtained under fluoroscopic guidance.
Receives: Procedure: EBUS-GS; Procedure: X-ray

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. The difference of diagnostic value of EBUS-GS-TBLB with fluoroscopy as compared to EBUS-GS-TBLB alone

    The diagnostic value mean sensitivity and specificity in two groups

    Measured: Up to half year

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. The difference of complications of EBUS-GS-TBLB with fluoroscopy as compared to EBUS-GS-TBLB alone

    Complications mean a composite of operation-related serious adverse events (pneumothorax, bleeding, etc.) during and after the operation in two groups

    Measured: Up to half year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing EBUS-GS and X-ray in people with Lung Cancer, run by Shanghai Chest Hospital at 1 site in China.

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 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

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.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

What does the primary outcome measure?

The difference of diagnostic value of EBUS-GS-TBLB with fluoroscopy as compared to EBUS-GS-TBLB alone (time frame: Up to half year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01895166, which also lists 4 linked publications.

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.
