About this study

Official title: A Prospective, Multicenter, Single-Arm Trial to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of the Peripheral Vein Thrombectomy Stent System in the Treatment of Deep Venous Thrombosis

To evaluate the safety and efficacy of peripheral vein thrombectomy stent system produced by Shanghai Tendfu Medical Technology Co., Ltd. in the treatment of acute or subacute deep venous thrombosis.

Read the detailed description

This project is being conducted at qualified clinical research institutions, where investigators are using a thrombectomy device developed by Shanghai Tengfu Medical Technology Co., Ltd. to treat subjects with deep vein thrombosis; it is a prospective, multicenter, single-arm clinical study utilizing a target performance value design, with subject enrollment managed via an online registration system. The primary endpoint-thrombectomy efficacy rate assessed immediately post-procedure-is used to determine whether the investigational device meets the efficacy standard, while device efficacy is further evaluated by the recurrence rate of thrombosis at the target lesion at 1, 3, and 6 months post-procedure, the incidence of post-thrombotic syndrome at 1, 3, and 6 months, device success rate, procedural success rate, and Venous Clinical Severity Score (VCSS) and Chronic Venous Insufficiency Questionnaire (CIVIQ-20) scores at 1, 3, and 6 months. Device safety is assessed based on the incidence of Major Adverse Events (MAEs) at 30 days post-procedure, as well as the incidence of adverse events and serious adverse events at 1, 3, and 6 months post-procedure.

What participants receive

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

  • Peripheral Vein Thrombectomy Stent SystemDevice

    Tendfast™ Peripheral Vein Thrombectomy Stent System (Tendfast™) is a mechanical thrombectomy system consisting of a peripheral vein thrombectomy stent and a thrombus aspiration catheter. Guided by a guidewire, the stent is delivered to the thrombus, deployed against the vessel wall to engage, scrape, and collect the thrombus into its mesh for removal, after which manual negative-pressure aspiration through the catheter clears residual thrombus and restores blood flow.

What is being measured

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

  1. Thrombus clearance rate

    Thrombus clearance (immediately post-procedure): The thrombus clearance rate is divided into 3 grades: Grade I is <50%; Grade II is 50%-95%; Grade III is >95%. The lower extremity veins are divided into 7 segments: inferior vena cava, common iliac vein, external iliac vein, common femoral vein, proximal superficial femoral vein, distal superficial femoral vein, and popliteal vein. Pre- and post-procedure luminal patency is visually assessed by venography: a patent lumen is scored as 0 points, partial occlusion (<50%) as 1 point, severe occlusion (50%-95%) as 2 points, and complete occlusion (95%-100%) as 3 points. The formula for the thrombus clearance rate is: (preoperative venous patency score - postoperative venous patency score) / preoperative venous patency score × 100%. A thrombus clearance rate of Grade II or above is considered effective.

    Measured: immediately after the surgery

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. thrombus recurrence rate

    Compared with before discharge, worsening of symptoms with imaging confirmation that the target lesion thrombus occludes the vessel or interrupts blood flow, requiring repeat intervention.

    Measured: 1, 3, and 6 months

  2. Post-thrombotic syndrome (PTS)

    Occurrence and severity grading assessed by the Villalta score. PTS is defined as a Villalta score >4. The Villalta score includes 5 symptoms (pain, muscle cramps, heaviness, paresthesia, itching) and 6 signs (pretibial edema, pigmentation, lipodermatosclerosis, redness of the skin, superficial venous dilatation, calf muscle tenderness). Severity is classified as mild (5-9), moderate (10-14), and severe (>14 and/or presence of skin ulcer).

    Measured: 1, 3, and 6 months

  3. Device success

    Successful delivery of the thrombectomy device to the target lesion, successful deployment, and successful withdrawal of the delivery system.

    Measured: immediately after the surgery

  4. Procedural success

    Immediate post-procedure thrombus clearance rate of Grade II or above and no major adverse event before discharge

    Measured: immediately after the surgery

  5. Venous Clinical Severity Score (VCSS)

    Evaluation of clinical symptoms by comparing improvement from baseline to post-treatment. VCSS includes 10 clinical elements (pain, varicose veins, edema, skin pigmentation, inflammation, induration, number of active ulcers, ulcer size, and use of compression therapy), each scored 0-3 by severity, with a total score of 30.

    Measured: 1, 3, and 6 months

  6. Chronic Venous Insufficiency Questionnaire (CIVIQ-20) score

    Improvement/change compared with pre-operation based on the CIVIQ-20 score. CIVIQ is a specific, self-administered quality-of-life questionnaire for patients with chronic venous disease of the lower extremities. It includes 20 items across 4 domains-social, psychological, physical, and pain-and mainly reflects the impact of chronic venous insufficiency on patients' quality of life.

    Measured: 1, 3, and 6 months

  7. Major adverse events (MAE) at 30 days

    all-cause death, major bleeding, new-onset symptomatic pulmonary embolism, and target lesion thrombus recurrence. Major bleeding is defined as intracranial hemorrhage or severe bleeding that leads to death, surgery, discontinuation of treatment, or transfusion. Transfusion [15] is defined as two or more units of whole blood (400 mL) or red blood cells (240 mL). Symptomatic pulmonary embolism is defined as pulmonary embolism with clinical symptoms such as dyspnea, chest pain, hemoptysis, panic, cough, or syncope. Target lesion thrombus recurrence is defined as worsening symptoms compared with before discharge, with imaging confirmation that the target lesion thrombus occludes the vessel or interrupts blood flow and requires repeat intervention.

    Measured: 30 days

  8. Adverse event rate within 12 months after surgery

  9. Serious adverse event rate within 12 months after surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Peripheral Vein Thrombectomy Stent System in people with DVT - Deep Vein Thrombosis, run by Shanghai TENDFO Medical Technology Co., Ltd. at 6 sites 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 4 inclusion and 22 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 5 Oct 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 sites 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?

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?

Thrombus clearance rate (time frame: immediately after the surgery). 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 5 Oct 2026.
