Trial summary

In the coming years, an increase in lung nodule resection is expected, particularly in Video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS). In some situations, it is necessary to use a device for locating these nodules. Meanwhile, the Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) is a tool whose use is constantly spreading.

About this study

In the coming years, an increase in lung nodule resection is expected, particularly in Video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS). In some situations, it is necessary to use a device for locating these nodules. Meanwhile, the Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) is a tool whose use is constantly spreading.

Read the detailed description

The aim of this study is to evaluate the feasibility of using intraoperative CBCT to develop a new procedure for intraoperative localization of pulmonary nodules in video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery.

Conditions
Thoracoscopy
Being tested
CBCT acquisition, Anesthesia and surgery

What participants receive

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

  • CBCT acquisitionProcedure or surgery

    Also called Artis Zeego System®

    Acquisitions are performed with the DynaCT function of a C-arm Artis Zeego System® device

  • Anesthesia and surgeryProcedure or surgery

    The anesthesia and surgery will take place according clinical routine practice

Study groups in NCT02966847
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
CBCT AcquisitionExperimentalThe anesthesia and surgery will take place in the usual way. The intervention consists in the CBCT acquisition after the initiation of single-lung ventilation, after the introduction of trocars.
Receives: Procedure: CBCT acquisition; Procedure: Anesthesia and surgery

What is being measured

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

  1. Assessment of CBCT

    Ability to identify the lesion on CBCT images of unventilated lung. CBCT images are interpreted by 2 senior surgeons.

    Measured: the day following the acquisition

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Feasibility of CBCT

    Number of patient excluded because of an inability to achieve CBCT acquisition, whatever the reason.

    Measured: At the end of the surgery

  2. Assessment of global image quality

    Assessment of image quality is based on an "open label" interpretation of CBCT images by two senior surgeons who score images from 0 (uninterpretable) to 10 (same quality as CT images)

    Measured: the day following the acquisition

  3. Assessment of image quality of lesions

    Assessment of image quality depending on the type of lesion and their location. Interpretation of CBCT images are performed by two senior surgeons who score images from 0 (uninterpretable) to 10 (same quality as CT images)

    Measured: the day following the acquisition

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing CBCT acquisition and Anesthesia and surgery in people with Thoracoscopy, run by Rennes University Hospital at 1 site in France.

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 5 inclusion and 4 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 May 2023. 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 France. 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 is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Assessment of CBCT (time frame: the day following the acquisition). 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 NCT02966847, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 24 May 2023.
