Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Safety Endpoints

    * Pulmonary adverse events: pneumothorax, persistent air leak, late onset air leak, residual pleural space, and acute respiratory distress syndrome * Renal adverse events * Cardiac adverse events * Death (all causes) * Hospital readmission

    90 days

Study Arms (3)

Control

OTHER

No treatment.

Other: Control

ProGEL Pleural Air Leak Sealant with standard surgical closure

EXPERIMENTAL

Standard surgical closure (suturing or stapling of visible air leaks incurred during resection of lung parenchyma) plus Progel Pleural Air Leak Sealant.

Device: ProGEL Pleural Air Leak Sealant with standard surgical closure

ProGEL Pleural Air Leak Sealant without standard surgical closure

EXPERIMENTAL

Progel Pleural Air Leak Sealant without standard surgical closure (without suturing or stapling of visible air leaks incurred during resection of lung parenchyma).

Device: ProGEL Pleural Air Leak Sealant without standard surgical closure

Interventions

ControlOTHER

Standard surgical techniques including staples and sutures.

Control

ProGEL is a single-use medical device that is formed as a result of mixing two components: (1) a solution of human serum albumin (HSA) and (2) a synthetic cross-linking component of polyethylene glycol (PEG). Standard closure means, for example, suturing or stapling of visible air leaks incurred during resection of lung parenchyma.
