Trial summary

The purpose of this research study is to compare how well a wire like device disrupts and removes blood clot in your blocked dialysis graft/fistula in comparison to inflating a balloon in your access for the same purpose. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Pharmacomechanical Dialysis Access Salvage With Balloon Assisted Maceration Versus Rotational Thrombectomy

The purpose of this research study is to compare how well a wire like device disrupts and removes blood clot in your blocked dialysis graft/fistula in comparison to inflating a balloon in your access for the same purpose. The wire like device is called the Cleaner XT and has already been approved by the government/Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for this purpose.

Blood clots in your dialysis access can be fairly common and prevent you from being able to get dialysis. Procedures for opening this blockage must then be performed which is why you have been sent to the hospital today. There are different ways of opening up this blockage which can including blowing up a balloon in multiple areas of the graft/fistula to squeeze the blood clot to break up the blockage or using a wire like device to break up the clot in small pieces and try to remove all of the clot from the wall of the graft/fistula.

What is being measured

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

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Cleaner XT and Balloon in people with Dialysis Access Malfunction and Dialysis; Complications, run by University of Alabama at Birmingham.

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 7 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The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 May 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Secondary patency (time frame: 6 months post procedurally). 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 19 May 2023.
