About this study

Official title: This is a Phase II Study on the Safety and Feasibility of Identifying the Intersegmental Plane of the Lung by Iron Sucrose Injection Staining,Both on the Pleural Surface and Lung Parenchyma

This is a protocol to determine the safety and feasibility of using Iron Sucrose Injection to identify the intersegmental plane,not only on the pleural surface but also the parenchyma of the lung.

Read the detailed description

This is a protocol to determine the safety and feasibility of using Iron Sucrose Injection to identify the lung intersegmental plane. This is relevant because the detection of small and early lung cancer is becoming increasingly common. segmentectomy may become a more prominent procedure for early-small lung cancer. One of the most difficult aspects of complete segmentectomy is detection of the intersegmental plane while maintaining an adequate surgical margin and remaining lung function. The method used to detect the intersegmental plane remains controversial. It is hoped that this technology can be used to recognize the intersegmental plane on the pleural surface and the pulmonary parenchyma and will save lots of money for patients in developing countries.

What is being measured

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

  1. Incidence of treatment-related grade 3-5 adverse events

    Incidence of treatment-related grade 3-5 adverse events assessed using the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version (v)4.0

    Measured: Up to 90 days post-surgery

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Surgical margin

    Intraoperative measured by the surgeons.From the tumor peripheral to the lung margin.According to the guidelines,the margins should ≥2cm or ≥ the size of the tumor.

    Measured: Day of surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Iron Sucrose Injection in people with Lung Neoplasm and Segmentectomy;Intersegmental Plane, run by Ruijin 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 3 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 31 Aug 2021. 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?

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?

Incidence of treatment-related grade 3-5 adverse events (time frame: Up to 90 days post-surgery). 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 NCT03516500, 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 31 Aug 2021.
