About this study

Official title: A Prospective Observational Study Evaluating the Accuracy of the Tool-in-lesion Technology of the Galaxy SystemTM in Normal Clinical Practice

A prospective observational study evaluating the accuracy of the tool-in-lesion technology of the Galaxy SystemTM in normal clinical practice.

Read the detailed description

The goal of this study is to collect clinical data from eligible subjects in routine clinical practice to confirm the safety and effectiveness of the Galaxy SystemTM with integrated tool-in-lesion tomography (TiLT+) in bronchoscopically biopsying small peripheral pulmonary nodules.

Being tested
Robotic assisted bronchoscopy
Medical subject headings
Lung Neoplasms

What participants receive

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

  • Robotic assisted bronchoscopyDevice

    Subjects will undergo a robotic navigated bronchoscopy to biopsy peripheral pulmonary nodules.

Study groups in NCT06685133
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Intervention/TreatmentSubjects who undergo bronchoscopy of the airways using the Galaxy System.
Receives: Device: Robotic assisted bronchoscopy

What is being measured

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

  1. Successful Navigation to the lesion

    Placing the scope in an adequate location which the physician operator judges as suitable to initiate biopsy.

    Measured: During the procedure

  2. Successful tool-in-lesion

    Successful tool-in-lesion (defined as the tool within the lesion) as confirmed by CBCT.

    Measured: During the procedure

  3. Serious Adverse Events

    Serious device or procedure related adverse events

    Measured: During the procedure and up to 7 days post procedure

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Diagnostic yield

    Number of patients who are provided a definitive diagnosis based on the pathology report of the biopsied tissue.

    Measured: End of procedure and up to 2-years post-procedure

  2. Center Strike

    Center strike (defined as inner one-third of lesion from all 3 views (axial, sagittal, and coronal) confirmed by CBCT.

    Measured: During the procedure

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Lung Cancer and Lung; Nodule, run by Noah Medical 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 5 inclusion and 8 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: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Aug 2025. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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?

Successful Navigation to the lesion (time frame: During the procedure). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT06685133, 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 15 Aug 2025.
