Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Primary Effectiveness: Technical Success

    Technical success, defined as complete coverage of the tumor as determined ≤36 hours post-index procedure by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or computerized tomography (CT). \[Core Lab Adjudicated\]

    Up to 36 hours after the index procedure

  • Primary Safety: Freedom From Index Procedure Related Major Complications

    Freedom from index procedure related major complications, defined by Clavien-Dindo Classification Grade 3 or higher up to 30 days after the last histotripsy procedure. \[Clinical Events Committee Adjudicated\]

    30 days Post-Index Procedure

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Technique Efficacy (Primary)

    90 days Post-Index Procedure

  • Technique Efficacy (Secondary)

    90 days Post-Index Procedure

Study Arms (1)

HistoSonics Investigational System

EXPERIMENTAL
Device: HistoSonics Investigational System

Interventions

The HistoSonics Investigational System is intended for the non-invasive destruction of kidney tissue using histotripsy, a non-thermal mechanical process of focused ultrasound.

Also known as: Histotripsy
HistoSonics Investigational System

Eligibility Criteria

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

You may qualify if:

  • Subject is ≥18 years of age.
  • Subject has signed the Ethics Committee (EC) approved trial Informed Consent Form (ICF) prior to any trial related tests/procedures and is willing to comply with trial procedures and required follow-up assessments.
  • Subject is diagnosed with a non-metastatic solid renal mass ≤3cm confirmed via CT or MRI ≤ 30 days prior to the index procedure date.
  • Subject can tolerate general anesthesia.
  • Subject has an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group Performance Status (ECOG PS) grade 0-2 at baseline screening.
  • Subject meets all the following functional criteria at ≤14 days prior to the planned index procedure date:
  • White Blood Cell (WBC) ≥3,000/mm3
  • Absolute Neutrophil Count (ANC) ≥1,200/mm3
  • Hemoglobin (Hgb) ≥9 g/dL
  • Platelet count ≥100,000/mm3 (≥100 10\*9/L)
  • White Blood Cell (WBC) ≤40 cells/µL via urinalysis
  • Albumin ≤300,000 mg/L via urinalysis
  • Subject has an eGFR ≥45mL/min, ≤14 days prior to the planned index procedure date.
  • International Normalized Ratio (INR) score of \<1.5:
  • If on anticoagulants, other than aspirin or non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, assessment must be performed on the day of the procedure; OR
  • +6 more criteria

You may not qualify if:

  • Subject is pregnant or planning to become pregnant or nursing (lactating) during the trial period.
  • Subject is enrolled and being actively treated in another investigational pharmaceutical or device trial ≤30 days prior to planned index procedure date.
  • Subject is undergoing active chemotherapy for any cancer ≤14 days prior to planned index procedure date.
  • Subject is undergoing active immunotherapy ≤40 days prior to planned index procedure date.
  • In the Investigator's opinion, the subject has co-morbid disease(s) or condition(s) that would cause undue risk and preclude safe use of the HistoSonics Investigational System.
  • Subject is on dialysis or being considered for dialysis.
  • Subject has not recovered to Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) grade 2 or better from any adverse effects (except alopecia and neuropathy) related to previous anti-cancer therapy.
  • Subject has an uncorrectable coagulopathy other than that induced by aspirin or non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs.
  • Subject has a planned cancer treatment (e.g., nephrectomy, chemotherapy, immunotherapy etc.) prior to completion of the 30-day follow-up visit.
  • Subject has had previous treatments with chemotherapy, radiotherapy, or both that have not been discontinued ≥14 days prior to the planned index procedure date and have not recovered (CTCAE grade 2 or better) from related toxicity (exclusive of alopecia and neuropathy).
  • Subject has previous treatment with immunotherapies that has not been discontinued ≥40-days prior to the planned index procedure date and has not recovered from related toxicity (CTCAE grade 2 or better).
  • Subject has a life expectancy less than one (\< 1) year.
  • In the investigator's opinion, histotripsy is not a treatment option for the subject.
  • Subject has a concurrent condition that could jeopardize the safety of the subject or compliance with the protocol.
  • Subjects' targeted tumor has had prior locoregional therapy (e.g., ablation, embolization, radiation).
  • +19 more criteria
