NCT01867658

Brief Summary

The objective of this clinical study is to evaluate the safety of the Progel® PALS, including the Progel® Extended Applicator Spray Tips, in sealing or reducing intraoperative air leaks in patients undergoing video assisted or robotic assisted thoracoscopic (VATS/Robotic) surgeries. The data collected in this clinical study will supplement the Approved PMA P010047 Progel® PALS product.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Rate of Device and/or Procedure-related Adverse Events

    The primary outcome of the study is the rate of device- and/or procedure-related adverse events at one month after surgery in subjects using Progel® PALS in a VATS/Robotic procedure. Endpoint analysis of the rate of device- and/or procedure-related adverse events will be based on the Clinical Events Committee (CEC) adjudication of adverse events.

    One (1) month follow-up

Secondary Outcomes (7)

  • Percentage of Subjects Without Postoperative Air Leaks Following Lung Surgery up to One (1) Month Follow-up

    One (1) month

  • Percentage of Air Leaks That Are Sealed or Reduced

    Day 0

  • Number of Subjects Who Are Free From Air Leaks Immediately Following Surgery

    Day 0

  • Duration of Postoperative Air Leaks From the Time of Surgery Until the Air Leak Seals

    Day 0-46

  • Duration of Chest Tube Drainage

    Day 0-46

  • +2 more secondary outcomes

Eligibility Criteria

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

You may qualify if:

  • Subject is willing and able to provide written informed consent.
  • Subject is scheduled for video assisted or robotic assisted thoracoscopic surgery for lung resection (i.e. lobectomy, bilobectomy, segmentectomy, and wedge resection/lung volume reduction), decortications or biopsy within 45 days of the screening evaluation.
  • Subject is ≥18 years of age.
  • Subject has a life expectancy ≥6 months.
  • Following lung resection, subject has at least one or more visible intraoperative air leaks, after standard closure techniques are applied, that requires treatment with pleural sealant.
  • Subject is willing and able to comply with the study procedures and complete the entire study as specified in the protocol, including the follow-up visits.

You may not qualify if:

  • Subject has undergone previous lung resection or previous use of a sealant for air leaks.
  • Subject has a serum creatinine ≥2.5 mg/dl at baseline or is currently on dialysis.
  • Following lung resection, subject has intraoperative air leaks that require non-standard, visceral pleural closure (e.g. leak is too small or tissue is too fragile to use sutures/staples).
  • Subject has any condition that, in the opinion of the Investigator, would preclude the use of the study device, or preclude the subject from completing the follow-up requirements.
  • Subject has known allergy to human albumin or any component in the Progel® PALS product.
  • Subject has an active or latent infection which is systemic or at the intended surgery site.
  • Subject has necrotic or friable borders of the defect that will not support secure suture fixation if use of sutures is required.
  • Subject is participating in another investigational drug or device trial.
  • Subject is pregnant or has plans to become pregnant during the study period or is currently breastfeeding.
  • Subject is part of the site personnel directly involved with this study.
  • Subject is a family member of the investigational study staff.
