About this study

Official title: Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotriptor Indicated for Fragmenting Urinary Stones in the Kidney (Renal Pelvis)

A total of 20 subjects presenting with urinary stone(s) in the kidney or ureter will be treated with an extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy device to fragment the stones. Subjects will be followed for 14 days. If at the 14 day follow-up visit the subject continues to present with a stone size 4 mm or greater will have an option of retreatment or other intervention. If the subject consents to be retreated at this time, this subject will be followed up for another 14 days.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing LithoSpace Extracorporeal Shockwave Lithotripter in people with Kidney Stones, run by Advance Shockwave Technology GmbH at 2 sites in United States.

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 2 inclusion and 7 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Jun 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in United States. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

stone fragmentation (time frame: 14 days). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 1 Jun 2011.
