About this study

Official title: Volcano Crux Vena Cava Filter Registry

The Crux Vena Cava Filter (VCF) Registry is a clinical study, sponsored by Volcano Corporation, to evaluate the short and long term performance and clinical outcomes of the Crux Vena Cava Filter System.

Read the detailed description

The Crux VCF Registry is a non-randomized clinical study, sponsored by Volcano Corporation, to evaluate the short and long term performance and clinical outcomes of the Crux VCF System. The registry includes consecutive patients treated with the Crux VCF in a post-market (commercial) setting with data collection at the implant procedure through 2 years post implant or to filter retrieval, whichever comes first. Patients may also be enrolled (roll-in) from a previous Crux VCF implant within the previous 6 months. Follow up assessment will be performed at 6, 12 and 24 months post-implant and at the time of retrieval, if performed.

Medical subject headings
Pulmonary Embolism, Venous Thromboembolism, Venous Thrombosis

What is being measured

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

  1. Prevention of Pulmonary Embolism

    The primary objective is to evaluate the long term clinical outcomes of patients treated with the Crux VCF for the prevention of PE over a two year period or up to filter retrieval, whichever comes first.

    Measured: 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Pulmonary Embolism and Venous Thromboembolism, run by Volcano Corporation at 3 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 4 inclusion and 4 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The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Apr 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 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.

Are results available for this study?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Prevention of Pulmonary Embolism (time frame: 2 years). 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 22 Apr 2016.
