About this study

Official title: Performance of Centargo - A Novel Piston-based Injection System for High Throughput in Contrast-enhanced Computed Tomography (CE CT)

This study investigates if a new medical device, which injects contrast media and flushing solution into humans to increase the visibility of images taken of the human body for diagnostic purposes, is easier to handle, quicker and cheaper than an older injector.

Read the detailed description

The study compares an investigational injection system (Centargo) for computed tomography (CT) to a currently marketed injection system (Stellant MP) in terms of efficiency, cost, performance and user satisfaction (Part 1). In addition, the reliability of the new injection system Centargo is tested (Part 2).

Being tested
Centargo injector (BPI 1000045), Stellant MP injector
Keywords

What is being measured

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

  1. Setup time of CT systems

    Measured: 1 day

  2. Change time for bottle/ bag containing contrast medium

    Measured: 1 day

  3. Patient setup time for the multi-patient set per day

    Measured: 1 day

  4. Teardown time of CT-system

    Measured: 1 day

  5. Number of multi-patient sets per day

    Measured: 1 day

Secondary outcomes (10)
  1. Total cost for multi-patients set and disposables per patient and day

    Measured: 1 day

  2. Reason for change of multi-patient syringe set for the injection of contrast media prior to expiration at 24 hours

    Measured: 1 day

  3. Volume of unused contrast agent at teardown time

    Measured: 1 day

  4. Volume of unused saline at teardown time

    Measured: 1 day

  5. Flow rate of contrast agent through the injector

    Measured: 1 day

  6. Volume of contrast agent delivered through injector

    Measured: 1 day

  7. Injector-generated pressure

    Measured: 1 day

  8. Number of automated system alerts

    Incl. alerts due to communication loss, pressure limiting, air detection (Centargo only) and a full waste container (Centrago only).

    Measured: 1 day

  9. Radiographer satisfaction with contrast-media injector by study-related questionnaire

    Questionnaire contains 14 questions on injectors, disposables and software, pertaining to 5 levels of user satisfaction (´Very easy´ to ´Very hard´). Levels of user satisfaction from different questions are not combined.

    Measured: Up to 4.5 months

  10. Number of errors requiring a CT-system reboot

    For Centargo only (Part 2)

    Measured: 1 day

Individual data sharing
Undecided: Availability of this study's data will be determined according to Bayer's commitment to the EFPIA/PhRMA "Principles for responsible clinical trial data sharing". This pertains to scope, timepoint and process of data access. As such, Bayer commits to sharing upon request from qualified researchers patient-level clinical trial data, study-level clinical trial data, and protocols from clinical trials in patients for medicines and indications approved in the US and EU as necessary for conducting legitimate research. This applies to data on new medicines and indications that have been approved by the EU and US regulatory agencies on or after January 01, 2014. Interested researchers can use www.clinicalstudydatarequest.com to request access to anonymized patient-level data and supporting documents from clinical studies to conduct research.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Centargo injector (BPI 1000045) and Stellant MP injector in people with Computed Tomography, run by Bayer at 2 sites in 2 countries.

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 3 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 3 Mar 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Australia, Netherlands. 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?

Setup time of CT systems (time frame: 1 day). The study lists 5 primary outcomes in all. 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 3 Mar 2021.
