NCT00145548

Brief Summary

The Spiration Intra-Bronchial Valve is intended for use as a minimally invasive treatment for severe emphysema, using standard bronchoscopy. The valve is designed to limit airflow to a selected portion of the lung, producing a reduction in lung volume, which may improve pulmonary function in patients with emphysema.

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 70 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Male and Female subjects at least 18 years of age.
  • Subject has severe, heterogeneous, predominantly upper lobe emphysema.
  • Subject has ability to meet goals of, or currently satisfies goals of, a comprehensive pulmonary rehabilitation program.
  • Subject has satisfied requirement for post-rehabilitation 6-minute walk of ≥ 140 m 6 and is able to complete 3 min unloaded pedaling in exercise tolerance test.
  • Subject has abstained from cigarette smoking for 4 months, as confirmed by urine or serum cotinine test.
  • Pulmonary function testing results demonstrate:
  • FEV1 ≤ 45% predicted (≥ 15% predicted if age ≥ 70 years)
  • TLC ≥ 100% predicted
  • RV ≥ 150% predicted
  • Arterial blood gas level indicates:
  • PCO2 ≤ 50 mm Hg
  • PO2 ≥ 45 mm Hg on room air (Denver criterion: PO2 ≥ 30 mm Hg)
  • Subject has no co-existing major medical problems that would significantly increase the risk of the bronchoscopy procedure and is classified as ASA Class P4 or lower.
  • If female, subject is not pregnant by a negative HCG pregnancy test within 7 days prior to the procedure.
  • Subject has willingness to undertake the risk and morbidity associated with the required bronchoscopic procedures.
  • +3 more criteria

You may not qualify if:

  • Patients with FEV1\< 20% predicted and either homogeneous emphysema or DLCO \< 20%. 3
  • Subject is unable to provide informed consent.
  • Subject is not an appropriate candidate for, or unable to tolerate, flexible bronchoscopy procedures.
  • Subject has dysrhythmia that might pose a risk during exercise or training.
  • Subject has resting bradycardia (\< 50 beats/min); frequent multifocal PVCs; complex ventricular arrhythmia; sustained SVT.
  • Subject has history of exercise-related syncope.
  • Subject has uncontrolled hypertension (systolic, \> 200 mm; diastolic \> 110 mm).
  • Subject has history of recurrent infections with clinically significant sputum production
  • Subject has known, active asthma, chronic bronchitis or clinically significant bronchiectasis.
  • Subject has giant bulla (\> 1/3 volume of lung).
  • Subject has pulmonary hypertension: peak systolic PPA, ≥ 45 mm Hg (Denver criterion: ≥ 50 mm Hg) or mean PPA, ≥ 35 mm Hg (Denver criterion: ≥ 38 mm Hg). (Right heart catheter is required to rule out pulmonary hypertension if peak systolic PPA on echocardiogram is ≥ 45 mm Hg.)
  • Subject has requirement for \> 6 L O2 to keep saturation ≥ 90% with exercise.
  • Subject has evidence of systemic disease or neoplasia expected to compromise survival during the 1-year study period.
  • Subject demonstrates 6MWT distance ≤ 140 m after rehabilitation.
  • Subject has any disease or condition that interferes with completion of initial or follow-up assessments.
  • +3 more criteria
