About this study

Official title: A Post-Market Study of Performance and Safety of Low-flow Extracorporeal Carbon Dioxide Removal Using PrismaLung+ in Patients With Mild to Moderate Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome

PrismaLung+ is intended to provide extracorporeal carbon dioxide removal (ECCO2R) as a standalone therapy or in combination with continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT). This study is a multi-centre, prospective, open-label, single-arm study. Adult patients with mild or moderate acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) requiring mechanical ventilation were planned to receive ultra-lung protective ventilation (ULPV) associated with ECCO2R using PrismaLung+. The study will assess the capability of PrismaLung+ to allow ULPV, defined as a tidal volume (VT) of 4 mL/kg of predicted body weight, and confirm the safety of PrismaLung+.

PrismaLung+

What participants receive

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

  • PrismaLung+Device

    Overall, up to 60 adult patients will be initiated on ECCO2R using PrismaLung+. A minimum of approximately 15 patients will be treated with ECCO2R using PrismaLung+ as standalone therapy and another minimum of approximately 15 patients will receive ECCO2R using PrismaLung+ in combination with CRRT.

Study groups in NCT04617093
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Total Patient PopulationExperimentalThe planned PrismaLung+ treatment period for this study is 24 hours. Neuromuscular blockade and sedation will be required for the first 24 hours of ECCO2R treatment and thereafter, will be used at the discretion of the attending physician. Patients will require systemic anticoagulation with heparin during ECCO2R treatment. Blood warming during ECCO2R treatment will occur using the TherMax blood warmer.
Receives: Device: PrismaLung+

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of participants achieving ultra-lung protective ventilation (ULPV) 8 and 24 hours following ECCO2R initiation

    Must maintain PaCO2 < 50 mmHg. ULPV is defined as defined as a tidal volume (VT) of 4 mL/kg of predicted body weight.

    Measured: 8 and 24 hours following ECCO2R initiation

  2. Adverse Events related to study device

    Adverse event related to the use of a study device. This definition includes AEs resulting from insufficient or inadequate instructions for use, deployment, implantation, installation, or operation, or any malfunction of the study device.

    This definition includes any event resulting from use error or from intentional misuse of the study device.

    Measured: Day 1 to Day 28

  3. Adverse Events related to study procedure

    Adverse events related to the study procedure (ECCO2R or ECCO2R in combination with CRRT), irrespective of relatedness to the device.

    Measured: Day 1 to Day 28

  4. Adverse Device Effect (ADE)

    This includes study device and study procedure related adverse events.

    Measured: Day 1 to Day 28

  5. Adverse Events leading to study withdrawal

    Any untoward medical occurrence, unintended disease or injury, or untoward clinical signs (including abnormal laboratory findings) in patients, users or other persons, in the context of a clinical investigation leading to study withdrawal.

    Measured: Day 1 to Day 28

  6. Adverse events of special interest (AESIs)

    The AESI's for this study include significant bleeding events (i.e. require administration of ≥ 1 unit of packed red blood cells (pRBC) or result in a related SAE).

    Measured: Day 1 to Day 28

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Carbon dioxide clearance after ECCO2R treatment

    CO2 clearance (mL/min) will be summarized descriptively by group and in total

    Measured: 8 hours following ECCO2R initiation

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing PrismaLung+ in people with Mild to Moderate Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome, run by Vantive Health LLC at 10 sites 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 7 inclusion and 9 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 1 Oct 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 10 sites 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?

Number of participants achieving ultra-lung protective ventilation (ULPV) 8 and 24 hours following ECCO2R initiation (time frame: 8 and 24 hours following ECCO2R initiation). The study lists 6 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT04617093, 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 1 Oct 2025; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 31 Oct 2026.
