About this study

Official title: Ultrathin Bronchoscopy With Virtual Bronchoscopic Navigation and Endobronchial Ultrasound for the Diagnosis of Peripheral Pulmonary Lesions Without Fluoroscopy: a Randomized Controlled Trial

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the feasibility,efficacy and safety of ultrathin bronchoscopy(UTB) combined with virtual bronchoscopic navigation(VBN) and endobronchial ultrasound(EBUS) for the diagnosis of peripheral pulmonary lesions (PPLs) without radiographic fluoroscopy.

Read the detailed description

The investigators evaluate feasibility,efficacy and safety of UTB combined with VBN and EBUS for the diagnosis of PPLs without radiographic fluoroscopy.Bronchoscopes with a 3.0-mm distal end diameter and a 1.7-mm working channel diameter are used (BF-Y0058;Olympus).The final diagnoses are established by pathological evidence from biopsy or cytology specimen including bronchoscopy or other procedures,microbiological analysis and clinical follow-up.The study is designed as a single center prospective randomized controlled trial.The participating center is Department of endoscopy, Shanghai Chest Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University, China.Subjects will be randomized (1:1) to UTB-VBN-EBUS-X-ray group and UTB-VBN-EBUS group based on a randomization schedule.The study is expected to enroll 200 patients with 100 patients of each group.

What participants receive

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

  • VBNProcedure or surgery

    VBN is carried out by a VBN software(DirectPath;Olympus,Japan) which can automatically create virtual bronchoscopic images.

  • EBUSProcedure 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.

  • X-rayProcedure or surgery

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

UTB-VBN-EBUS groupExperimentalBronchoscopes with a 3.0-mm distal end diameter and a 1.7-mm working channel diameter are used (BF-Y0058;Olympus).The EBUS probe is confirmed to reach the lesion by EBUS images alone, cytologic and pathologic specimens are obtained without fluoroscopic guidance.

Receives: Procedure: VBN; Procedure: EBUS; 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 UTB-VBN-EBUS with fluoroscopy as compared to UTB-VBN-EBUS alone

    The diagnostic value means diagnostic yields in two groups for benign and malignant lesions

    Measured: Up to half year

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. The difference of the operation time of UTB-VBN-EBUS with fluoroscopy as compared to UTB-VBN-EBUS alone

    The operation time means the total operation time and the total EBUS time.

    Measured: Up to half year

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?

The difference of diagnostic value of UTB-VBN-EBUS with fluoroscopy as compared to UTB-VBN-EBUS 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 NCT02664259, which also lists 6 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.
