About this study

Official title: A Multi-center, Prospective, Randomized, Controlled Trial of Endobronchial Valve Therapy vs. Standard of Care in Heterogeneous Emphysema

To compare the clinical outcomes of Endoscopic Lung Volume Reduction using Pulmonx Zephyr Endobronchial Valve (EBV) vs. Standard of Care (SoC) in the treatment of heterogeneous emphysema patients in a controlled trial design setting.

Read the detailed description

The aim of this prospective, randomized, controlled, one-way crossover study is to assess and compare the efficacy of the Zephyr endobronchial valves vs. Standard of Care (SoC) in patients suffering from COPD with Heterogeneous Emphysema. Patients will be followed up for 6 months after randomization. Patients in the SoC arm will crossover to the EBV treatment arm after the 6-month visit and will be followed up for 6 additional months.The primary objective is the variation of FEV1 between baseline and 3-month follow-up visit. The secondary objectives will evaluate quality of life, exercise capacity, dyspnea (including BODE index) changes, target lobe volume reduction, as well as safety outcomes.

What participants receive

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

  • Zephyr endobronchial valve placementDevice

    Patients will have ELVR (Endoscopic Lung Volume Reduction) with Zephyr valve inserted into the target lobe of the lung with the aim of complete lobar exclusion.

  2. Comparison of the FEV1 using 15% Percentage change as cut-off for clinically significant change

    Measured: At baseline and after 3, 6 months

  3. Change in Residual Volume (RV)

    Measured: At baseline and after 3, 6 months

  4. Change in Total Lung Capacity (TLC)

    Measured: At baseline and after 3, 6 months

  5. Change in FEV1/FVC ratio

    Measured: At baseline and after 3, 6 months

  6. Change in St George's Respiratory Questionnaire

    Measured: At baseline and after 3, 6 months

  7. Change in 6-Min Walk Test

    Measured: At baseline and after 3, 6 months

  8. Change in BODE index

    Measured: At baseline and after 3, 6 months

  9. Change in mMRC score

    Measured: At baseline and after 3, 6 months

  10. Adverse Events and Serious Adverse Events

    AEs: Type, incidence, severity, seriousness and relationship to study medications of adverse events (AE) (graded by the National Cancer Institute [NCI] Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events [CTCAE 4.0]

    Measured: At each visits

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Zephyr endobronchial valve placement in people with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease and Emphysema, run by Chinese PLA General 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 10 inclusion and 8 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Jul 2016. 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 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?

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?

Percentage change in Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 s (FEV1) (time frame: At baseline and after 3 months). 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 6 Jul 2016.
