About this study

Official title: The Use of Aeriseal ® in the Management of Collateral Ventilation Positive COPD Patients Undergoing ELVR (Endoscopic Lung Volume Reduction) Utilizing Endobronchial Valves

The aim of this study is to determine the feasibility of combining a lung sealant with endobronchial valves EBV in managing patients with COPD who are collateral ventilation (CV) positive. This study has two arms; arm 1 is for CV positive participants who will receive the lung sealant and EBV; arm 2 is the CV negative group who will only receive EBV as the standard management.

Being tested
Lung Sealant, Endobronchial Valve (EBV)
Medical subject headings
Pulmonary Disease, Chronic Obstructive

What participants receive

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

  • Lung SealantDevice

    Also called AeriSeal

    The Aeriseal System uses a polymer foam to block or seal fissures, peripheral airways, alveoli, and collateral channels to achieve lung volume reduction.

  • Endobronchial Valve (EBV)Device

    Also called Zephyr Endobronchial Valve System

    The Zephyr EBV System are one way valves inserted into the airways to reduce lung hyperinflation.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Collateral Ventilation NegativeActive comparatorCollateral Ventilation Negative participants will have endobronchial valve implant

Collateral Ventilation PositiveExperimentalCollateral Ventilation Positive participants will have the lung sealant applied and the endobronchial valve implant
Receives: Device: Lung Sealant; Device: Endobronchial Valve (EBV)

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants converted from Collateral Ventilation positive (CV+) to Collateral Ventilation negative (CV-)

    Collateral ventilation status will be functionally assessed and confirmed via CHARTIS® System. Examination of left upper lobe to determine percentage of participants converted from collateral ventilation positive to a collateral ventilation negative state

    Measured: 4 weeks post lung sealant application

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Number of participants with improved lung functioning as measured by lung function tests

    Lung function will be assessed by spirometry, plethysmography, lung diffusion capacity and capillary blood test

    Measured: 12weeks and 52 weeks post valve implant

  2. Changes Lung volume

    Changes in lung volume will be assessed using high resolution computed tomography (HRCT) and target lobe volume reduction (TLVR)

    Measured: 12weeks and 52 weeks post valve implant

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Lung Sealant and Endobronchial Valve (EBV) in people with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), run by Macquarie University, Australia at 1 site in Australia.

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 6 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 31 May 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 Australia. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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 converted from Collateral Ventilation positive (CV+) to Collateral Ventilation negative (CV-) (time frame: 4 weeks post lung sealant application). 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 NCT05396131, 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 31 May 2022.
