Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
To Reduce Tumor Burden in the Pleural Space, as Determined by Visual Inspection and Biopsy of the Treatment Sites 2-5 Days Post Treatment. Safety Endpoint Clinical and Radiographic Status at 30 Days Post CryoSpray Treatment and Adverse Events.
1 year
Secondary Outcomes (1)
To Determine if CryoSpray Causes a Pleurodesis Effect. To Determine if CryoSpray Affects Production of Malignant Effusion Within the Treated Pleural Cavity. To Determine if Pleural Cavity Treatment With CryoSpray is Dosimetry Dependent.
1 year
Study Arms (1)
CryoSpray Ablation (TM) System
EXPERIMENTALsubjects will receive cryotherapy using the CryoSpray Ablation (TM) System DOSE: up to 3 cycles of 10-40 second sprays
Interventions
Subjects will be treated with spray cryotherapy using the CryoSpray Ablation (TM) System at Day 0 using up to 3 cycles of 10-40 second sprays as the studied dosimetry and will cover the affected area, including the tumor and the parietal pleural surface. If disease exists bilaterally, only one side will be sprayed. Subjects will be assessed 2-5 days from the initial treatment (Day 0) to check for mucosal sloughing, to reassess tumor burden and for additional CSA therapy as needed.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- years of age
- Deemed a candidate for cryotherapy based on physician physical or medical history review
- Deemed operable based on institutional criteria
- Able to sign informed consent
- Documented lung or other visceral cancer with pleural involvement.
- WBC \> 4,000/mm3, platelets \>100,000mm3
- Physically well enough to undergo moderate sedation and pleuroscopy
- Female patients must be HCG negative
- There should be direct evidence of disease progression despite treatment in previously treated patients
You may not qualify if:
- Pregnant or nursing
- Planning to sire a child while enrolled in the study
- Known history of unresolved drug or alcohol dependency that would limit ability to comprehend or follow instructions related to informed consent, post-treatment instructions, or follow-up guidelines.
- Refusal or inability to give consent.
- Concurrent chemotherapy.
- Medical contraindication or potential problem that would preclude study participation
- Concurrent participation in other experimental studies
- Uncontrolled coagulopathy or bleeding diathesis
- Serious medical illness, including:
- Uncontrolled congestive heart failure
- Uncontrolled angina
- Myocardial infarction
- Cerebrovascular accident within 6 months prior to study entry
