About this study

Official title: A Non-Randomized, Non-Significant Risk Study Comparing the Nautilus NeuroWaveTM System to Transcranial Doppler or DSA as an Aid to Diagnosing Vasospasm

To determine the efficacy of using the Jan Medical NNW system as a diagnostic aid in detection of moderate and severe vasospasm for detection of vasospasm in patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage.

Read the detailed description

This study is a prospective, comparative, non-randomized study in subjects with subarachnoid hemorrhage who are undergoing surveillance for vasospasm. The study will be conducted in one center.

The primary objective of Phase I of this non-significant risk study is proof of principle. During this phase the goal is to build a library of Jan Medical NNW system recordings from patients with moderate and severe vasospasms. A signature for detecting vasospasms will be developed using the signals from a vasospasm epoch to a patient's individual baseline recording and confirming the presence of vasospasm by comparison of Jan Medical NNW system data to TCD and, when available Digital Subtraction Angiography (DSA). The number of patients required for Phase I is estimated to be 20 patients with confirmed moderate or severe vasospasm with a minimum of 10 these patients having at least one severe vasospasm recording confirmed by TCD or DSA. Daily recordings are to be taken.

During Phase II the Jan Medical NNW system will independently utilize the signatures identified in Phase I to identify the presence or absence of moderate and severe vasospasm in a blinded recording. This recording will be compared to TCD or DSA, when DSA is available, for analysis of sensitivity and specificity. Up to 50 subjects will be enrolled in Phase II. When possible, multiple recordings will be obtained from each subject to include recordings with and without vasospasm.

Duration of each subject's enrollment in this study is limited to the period of time when Jan Medical NNW system recordings are performed. No additional tests or procedures will be performed during participation in this study and all other data collected (including TCD or DSA) will be based on available evaluations conducted as part of the patient's standard of care. Upon completing the last Jan Medical NNW system recording or when no further data collection is expected, the subject will be exited from the study.

What is being measured

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

  1. Sensitivity (moderate or severe)

    Efficacy at identifying moderate or severe vasospasm. Reference diagnosis will be with TCD and where available DSA

    Measured: Within 5 minutes from end of recording

  2. Specificity

    Rate of false positives using TCD and where available DSA as the reference standard. False positive is a recording judged mild or no vasospasm by TCD or DSA that is determined by the NNW as moderate or severe

    Measured: Within 5 minutes of recording

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Sensitivity at detecting any vasospasm

    Efficacy at identifying vasospasm either mild, moderate or severe. Reference standard will be TCD and DSA where available.

    Measured: Within 5 minutes of recording

  2. Specificity

    Rate of false positives using TCD and where available DSA as the reference standard. False positive is a recording determined as no vasospasm by TCD or DSA that is determined by the NNW as either mild, moderate or severe vasospasm

    Measured: Within 5 minutes of end of recording

  3. Location of vasospasm

    With TCD and DSA, when available, as reference standards, the efficacy at locating any vasospasm as ocurring in the left, right or back of the cranium. The measure will be what % of correctly called vasospasm was correctly located.

    Measured: Within 5 minutes of recording

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Vasospasm, run by Jan Medical, Inc. at 1 site in Germany.

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 3 inclusion and 3 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Jul 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Germany. 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?

The study was stopped early (reason given: Study recruitment was put on hold for interim data analysis and during this time period the PI requested to pre-maturely terminate the study). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Sensitivity (moderate or severe) (time frame: Within 5 minutes from end of recording). 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 1 Jul 2022.
