About this study

Official title: A Phase II Study to Evaluate the Efficacy of Anti-Fibrin Humanized Monoclonal Antibody(DI-DD3B6/22-80B3) Fab' Fragment (ThromboView®) Conjugated With Technetium-99m in the Detection of Pulmonary Emboli

The aim of the study is to determine the diagnostic accuracy of 99mTc ThromboView® SPECT imaging for the detection of acute pulmonary embolism (PE) in patients for whom there is a moderate to high clinical suspicion for PE.

  • ThromboViewOther

    Radiopharmaceutical, single dose, of the diagnosis of venous thromboembolism

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Provide estimates of the sensitivity of 99mTc ThromboView® in subjects with confirmed PE, as determined by computed tomographic pulmonary angiography (CTPA) and the specificity of 99mTc ThromboView® in subjects with PE excluded by CTPA

    Measured: June 2008

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing ThromboView in people with Acute Pulmonary Embolism, run by Agen Biomedical at 6 sites in 2 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 15 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Apr 2009. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 sites in United States, Canada. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Provide estimates of the sensitivity of 99mTc ThromboView® in subjects with confirmed PE, as determined by computed tomographic pulmonary angiography (CTPA) and the specificity of 99mTc ThromboView® in subjects with PE excluded by CTPA (time frame: June 2008). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00519506, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 14 Apr 2009.
