Can a new device suck out deadly lung clots?

NCT ID NCT06062329

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed This study
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This trial tests a device called the Symphony Thrombectomy System in people with acute pulmonary embolism, a condition where blood clots block arteries in the lungs. The device is designed to restore blood flow by suctioning out or breaking up the clots. The study will check how safe the device is and whether it reduces strain on the heart, as seen on CT scans, within 48 hours of the procedure.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Symphony Thrombectomy System, a device that removes blood clots from the lungs using aspiration and mechanical clot engagement
What this could lead to
If successful, this device could offer a new way to quickly clear life-threatening blood clots in the lungs, potentially reducing complications and improving recovery for people with acute pulmonary embolism.
What could go wrong
This is an early-stage trial with a moderate number of participants, so the device may not prove safer or more effective than existing treatments. There are risks of bleeding, device-related injury, or other serious adverse events.

Lead sponsor

A company

The lead sponsor is a pharmaceutical, biotech, or medical-device company.

Inclusion Criteria: 1. CTA evidence of acute PE within ≤14 days 2. Clinical signs and symptoms consistent with acute PE. 3. Systolic BP ≥90 mmHg with evidence of dilated RV with an RV/LV ratio \>0.9 (based on Investigator's assessment of RV/LV ratio) 4. Stable heart rate \<130 BPM prior to procedure 5. Subject is between 18 and 80 years of age 6. Subject is willing to sign an IRB-approved informed consent form 7. Subject is willing and able to comply with protocol follow-up Exclusion Criteria: 1. Thrombolytic use within 14 days of baseline CTA 2. International Normalized Ratio (INR) \>3 3. Platelets \<100,000/µL 4. Kidney dysfunction as confirmed by serum creatinine \>1.8 mg/dL or GFR \<45 mL/min 5. Hematocrit \<28% or hemoglobin \<9 g/dL 6. Systolic BP \<90 mmHg for 15 min or requirement of inotropic support to maintain systolic BP ≥90 mmHg any time after admission 7. Experienced cardiac arrest 8. Has left bundle branch block 9. Known bleeding diathesis or coagulation disorder 10. Presence of intracardiac lead in the right ventricle or right atrium 11. Presence of intracardiac thrombus 12. Major trauma within the past 14 days 13. Cardiovascular or pulmonary surgery within last 7 days 14. Known serious, uncontrolled sensitivity to radiographic agents 15. Contraindication to anticoagulants, i.e., heparin or alternative 16. Patient on extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) 17. Cancer requiring active chemotherapy 18. Heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) 19. Pulmonary hypertension with peak pulmonary artery pressure \>70 mmHg by right heart catheterization. 20. History of chronic severe pulmonary hypertension, and/or chronic left heart disease with left ventricular ejection fraction ≤30% 21. Life expectancy \<90 days as determined by investigator 22. Pregnant or nursing 23. COVID-19 positive at hospital admission 24. Current participation in another investigational study 25. Evidence such as imaging or other that suggests the subject is not appropriate for this procedure (e.g., target vessel size is too small to accommodate 16F or 24F catheters).
