About this study

Preoperative computed tomography-guided localization can improve technical success rates associated with sublobar lung nodule resection conducted via video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery. This study sought to compare the clinical efficacy of computed tomography-guided localization needle and coil insertion as approaches to preoperative lung nodule localization.

Read the detailed description

Lung nodules are frequently diagnosed and often exhibit a high potential for malignancy such that they are commonly diagnosed and treated via video-assisted thoracic surgery approaches. Preoperative computed tomography-guided localization strategies are commonly employed to improve the successful rate of video-assisted thoracic surgery-guided sublobar (wedge or segmental) resection procedures. One recent meta-analysis found coil localization to be associated with the lowest rate of complications of tested localization materials. Hook-wire has also been widely used due to its simple placement approaches. However, a number of recent reports have suggested that hook-wire insertion approaches are associated with an increased potential for frequent and potentially severe complications.

The use of a novel lung nodule localization needle strategy based on the modification of this previously described hook-wire approach has recently been employed in clinical contexts. Such localization needles have the potential to incur lower rates of detachment and complications relative to the hook-wire strategy without resulting in an increase in localization difficulty. The relative clinical efficacy of localization needle-based strategies compared to that of other localization materials, however, has yet to be established in the context of lung nodule localization.

What is being measured

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

  1. Technical success of localization

    Lung nodule localization is considered technically successful if the coil tail or marked line can be visible during the video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery. procedure

    Measured: From the date of randomization until the date of first documented failure localization from any cause, assessed up to 7 day.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Localization needle and Coil in people with Lung; Node, run by Xuzhou Central 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 2 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Jan 2022. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Technical success of localization (time frame: From the date of randomization until the date of first documented failure localization from any cause, assessed up to 7 day.). 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 NCT05183945, 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 19 Jan 2022.
