About this study

An open-label study to clinically assess a novel wearable advanced compression technology (Dayspring™) undertaken to determine if potential barriers to lymphedema self-care were effectively addressed. The Dayspring™ device is a novel FDA-cleared wearable solution that is portable and easy-to-use sequential compression system. The following endpoints are examined:

  1. Improvement in QoL in subject with upper-extremity edema after 28 days as measured by the LYMQOL disease-specific validated assessment tool.
  2. Arm volume maintenance or improvement as measured prior to and after 28 days of device use.
  3. Safety as assessed by reported adverse events
  4. Patient satisfaction as measured by visual analog scale (VAS) and survey at the end of the study; and
  5. Adherence to therapy as measured with a smart phone app.

What is being measured

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

  1. LYMQOL (LYMphedema Quality of Life)

    The Lymphedema Quality of Life Questionnaire (LYMQOL), a validated disease-specific QoL tool, was also administered at baseline and at day 28. Overall QoL is scored on a single item by the patient on a scale of 1-10.

    Measured: 28 days

  2. Arm Volume Maintenance or Improvement

    Limb volume measurement was performed by using a calibrated tape measure to measure circumference from the wrist and the ulnar styloid process and at 4cm increments to the axilla. Measurements were taken for both upper extremities. If both extremities exhibited edema, a study arm was designated for treatment. Measurements were taken by the same investigator throughout the study. Volume was calculated based on cylindrical segment analysis.

    Measured: 28 days

  3. Safety/AEs

    As assessed by reported adverse events

    Measured: 28 days

  4. Therapy adherence tracking

    Therapy adherence tracked via the mobile app linked to the Dayspring™ device.

    Measured: 28 days

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Patient survey

    A visual analog scale (VAS) and study survey were administered at the end of the study to measure patient satisfaction (day 28). The six-item questionnaire was used to document the time of day the device was used, if daily activities were supported during use, function, and symptoms. All were measured on a scale from 1-5. The VAS was administered to previous users of pneumatic compression devices to assess preference and likelihood to recommend to others with lymphedema.

    Measured: 28 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing User of Dayspring device in people with Breast Cancer Related Lymphedema and Lymphedema of Upper Arm, run by Koya Medical, Inc. at 2 sites 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 3 inclusion and 16 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 Jun 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 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?

LYMQOL (LYMphedema Quality of Life) (time frame: 28 days). The study lists 4 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 1 Jun 2021.
