About this study

Official title: First-in-Human, Single Center, Evaluation of the DiLumen Device in Routine Colonoscopy

This is an observational registry study collecting data on the clinical performance of the study device (DiLumen™ ) for its intended use. The primary objective is to evaluate functional outcomes of the DiLumen device in humans. The secondary objective is to evaluate safety characteristics of the DiLumen device.

Read the detailed description

The DiLumen™ Endolumenal Interventional Platform is a non-sterile, single-use, close-fitting sleeve that fits securely over a standard endoscope to stabilize it in the large intestine, and facilitates use of the endoscope for optical visualization, diagnosis, and treatment. It was developed by MINT (Minimally Invasive New Technology) at Weill Cornell. The technology has been licensed to Lumendi for commercialization.

The DiLumen Endolumenal Interventional Platform ("DiLumen" or "the device") is an accessory to an endoscope. The DiLumen dual balloon accessory is intended for use with any standard endoscope that has a distal tip outer diameter of 12.5 - 14.3 mm and a working length of 1680 mm or greater. The device is indicated to ensure complete positioning of an endoscope in the large intestine and assist with optical visualization, diagnosis, and endoscopic treatment.

The device received 510k clearance on Dec 6, 2016. The device is fully disposable, and consists of six major components that form its primary mechanical structure: (1) Fore Balloon; (2) Aft Balloon; (3) Sleeve; (4) Base; (5) Push Rod Mechanism; and (6) Inflation System.

The DiLumen utilizes two balloons to position and stabilize the endoscope within a patient's large intestine. After the device is installed over the endoscope, the endoscope/DiLumen are navigated to the target zone with the balloons deflated. The first balloon, the Aft balloon, is attached to the DiLumen sleeve. Once the clinician is at the target site, the Aft Balloon will be inflated until it contacts the intestinal wall near the proximal end of the articulating section of an endoscope. The second balloon, the Fore Balloon, is also attached to the sleeve via two flexible extension Push Rods and is deployed at the distal end of the endoscope at a variable distance. Once extended and inflated, the Fore Balloon contacts the patient's intestinal wall, and in combination with the Aft Balloon, creates an isolated diagnostic or therapeutic zone within a patient's large intestine. Both balloons are inflated or deflated with ambient air independently using an Inflation Handle with a squeeze bulb. The balloons assist with accessing and visualization of lesions behind folds and turns in the intestine, stabilizing the endoscope distal tip and establishing a Therapeutic Zone (TZ). Required insufflation within the therapeutic zone is minimized compared to typical colorectal endoscopic procedures, because the balloons enclose only a small portion (approximately 23 cm) of the large intestine.

The balloons and sleeve are designed to permit the usage of any standard endoscopic tool (such as biopsy forceps, snare, needle, etc.) through the endoscope working channel. The endoscope flexibility, maneuverability and functionalities (such as visualization, suction, insufflations, etc.) are unaffected by the presence of the DiLumen.

What participants receive

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

  • DiLumenDevice

    Also called Endolumenal Interventional Platform

    The study device is placed over a compatible endoscope to facilitate endoscopic diagnosis and treatment of any large intestine pathology with the use of double balloons

What is being measured

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

  1. Performance

    Ability to reach cecum with the study device and scope [Y or N]

    Measured: Duration of procedure

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Incidence of Treatment Related Adverse Events

    No unintended visible mucosal injury on Dilumen withdrawal (above what is normally expected from colonoscopy)

    Measured: Up to 3 months

  2. Performance

    Ability to inflate balloons in right colon and sigmoid colon and create a therapeutic zone [Y or N]

    Measured: Duration of Procedure

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Colon Polyp, run by Lumendi, LLC at 1 site in United States.

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 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 2 Dec 2017. 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 United States. 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?

Performance (time frame: Duration of procedure). 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 2 Dec 2017.
