What participants receive

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

  • Percutaneous Lung BiopsyDevice

    Patients will undergo the usual biopsy procedure with a fine needle inserted through a larger guide needle, under CT guidance; at the end of the biopsy, the MIPP-Kit will be introduced through the same guide needle. The guide needle and the MIPP Kit will be retracted together slowly, whilst injecting BioGlue in appropriate amounts along the whole track, from the lesion to the skin.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Percutaneous Lung Biopsy in people with Complications in Diagnostic Percutaneous Lung Biopsy Procedures, run by BetaGlue Technologies spa at 3 sites in Italy.

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 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed 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?

Rate of complications associated with percutaneous lung biopsy (time frame: 48 hours after procedure). 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 NCT04071509, 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 14 Jul 2020; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
