About this study

Official title: Clinical Investigation Plan (CIP) for: Safety and Performance Study for Arterial Large Hole Vascular Closure Device - ELITE Study

To study will assess safety and performance of the PerQseal Elite Closure Device when used with the 18F PerQseal Elite Introducer to percutaneously close femoral artery punctures and to induce arterial haemostasis in patients undergoing endovascular procedures requiring an arteriotomy created by 14 to 22 F sheaths.

Note, for reference purposes, it is expected arteriotomies created with 14 to 22 F sheaths will create an arteriotomy in the range of 16 - 26 F (being the outer diameter of these sheaths).

Read the detailed description

This study will be a prospective, multi-centred, non-randomized study to investigate the safety and performance of the PerQseal Elite. The study shall not be blinded prior to, during or post the procedure. All patients undergoing an endovascular procedure requiring an arteriotomy created by 14 to 22 F sheaths, via the common femoral artery will be screened against the inclusion/exclusion criteria.

All subjects shall have a pre-discharge, 30-Days ± 7-Days and 180-Days ± 30-Days follow-up assessment. All safety data from the study will be assessed by the Data Safety Monitoring Committee on a continuous basis.

    Percutaneous ELITE Arterial Closure Device

    The term PerQseal Elite used singularly refers to the closure system comprising the closure device and Introducer. These individually are referred to as: "PerQseal Elite VCD" or "PerQseal Elite closure device" and/or "PerQseal Elite Introducer".

What is being measured

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

  1. Primary Safety Endpoint - Major access site complications

    Rate of major access site complications attributable to the PerQseal Elite device

    Measured: through 30 Days

  2. Primary Effectiveness Endpoint - Time to Haemostasis

    Time to Haemostasis (TTH) defined as elapsed time in minutes from PerQseal Elite (Introducer-sheath and Delivery-device) removal to first observed cessation of common femoral artery (CFA) bleeding, excluding cutaneous or subcutaneous oozing, and in the absence of a developing haematoma.

    Measured: 20 Minutes

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Secondary Safety Endpoint - Incidence of Minor Access Site Complications

    The Incidence of minor access site complications attributable to the PerQseal Elite device

    Measured: Through 30 Days

  2. Secondary Effectiveness Endpoint - PerQseal Elite Technical Success Rate

    Defined as the number of PerQseal Elite devices that are deployed and achieve haemostasis (i.e., cessation of arterial bleeding excluding cutaneous or subcutaneous oozing) without need for more than 10 minutes of firm, adjunctive manual compression or alternative treatment (other than adjunctive endovascular ballooning) at target access site, divided by the total number of PerQseal Elite devices where deployment was attempted, within the mITT population

    Measured: 10 Minutes

  3. Secondary Effectiveness Endpoint - PerQseal Elite Treatment Success Rate

    Defined as the number of subjects who meet PerQseal Elite Technical Success without experiencing a device related Major Access Site Complication (based on CEC adjudication) through 30-days, divided by the total number of subjects where PerQseal Elite device deployment was attempted, within the mITT population.

    Measured: through 30 days

  4. Secondary Effectiveness Endpoint - Time to Device Deployment

    Defined as the time from insertion of the PerQseal Elite delivery device into the PerQseal Elite Introducer sheath to complete removal of the PerQseal Elite (delivery device and introducer-sheath) from the subject following PerQseal Elite deployment.

    Measured: 20 Minutes

  5. Secondary Effectiveness Endpoint - Time to Ambulation

    Defined as the elapsed time from PerQseal Elite removal from the subject post deployment until the subject can walk 20 feet/6 meters without arterial re-bleeding at the target access site. This endpoint will be evaluated only for subjects who are ambulatory (e.g., not confined to wheelchair or bed) at the time of enrolment.

    Measured: through 24 hours

  6. Secondary Effectiveness Endpoint - Total Closure Time

    Total Closure Time is defined as: Time to Haemostasis (TTH) plus Time to Device Deployment (TTDD).

    Measured: 40 Minutes

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing PerQseal ELITE in people with Large Hole Percutaneous Arterial Closure, run by Vivasure Medical Limited.

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 4 inclusion and 42 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 Jul 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Chris Martin (+353 91 395 442, Chris.Martin@vsuremed.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Primary Safety Endpoint - Major access site complications (time frame: through 30 Days). The study lists 2 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 19 Jul 2023.
