About this study

Official title: Clinical Study to Evaluate the Safety, Feasibility and Efficacy of the Coldplay CryoBalloon Focal Ablation System for the Cryoablation of Dysplastic Squamous Tissue in Patients With Esophageal Squamous Cell Dysplasia

To demonstrate the feasibility, safety and efficacy of the CryoBalloon Ablation System for the treatment of esophageal squamous cell dysplasia.

Read the detailed description

Multi-center, prospective, single arm, non-randomized study. The study will proceed in two phases: a pilot phase, followed by the feasibility, safety and efficacy phase. In the pilot phase, up to five (5) patients at one (1) site will be treated with the CryoBalloon Ablation System to confirm its safety and feasibility in the treatment of squamous dysplasia. The second phase will be conducted at two (2) centers and will enroll up to 50 subjects to evaluate the feasibility, safety and efficacy of the CryoBalloon Ablation System for the treatment of squamous dysplasia.

Being tested
CryoBalloon Focal Ablation System

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • CryoBalloon Focal Ablation SystemDevice

    Also called C2 CryoBalloon Focal Ablation System, Coldplay CryoBalloon Focal Ablation System

    Positioned within the esophagus at the target location, the Balloon is simultaneously inflated and cooled with nitrous oxide. The nitrous oxide cools the inner Balloon surface. The Balloon remains stationary during the delivery of the nitrous oxide for the Cryoablation of Dysplastic Squamous Tissue in Patients with Esophageal Squamous Cell Dysplasia

What is being measured

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

  1. Serious, device-related adverse events

    Incidence of serious, device-related adverse events

    Measured: Day 30

  2. Successful, complete ablation of the unstained lesions (USLs) within the treatment area (TA)

    The percentage of subjects with successful, complete ablation of the USLs within the TA as determined by the endoscopist at the time of the treatment endoscopy(s)

    Measured: Day 0

  3. Percentage of subjects with absence of ULS containing medium-grade intraepithelial neoplasia (MGIN) or high-grade intraepithelial neoplasia (HGIN) within the original TA

    Percentage of subjects with absence of ULS containing medium-grade intraepithelial neoplasia (MGIN) or high-grade intraepithelial neoplasia (HGIN) within the original TA at three (3) months following endoscopic cryoablation. This will be evaluated by visual endoscopic exam and two (2) biopsies negative for squamous epithelial dysplasia confirmed by histopathological analysis

    Measured: 3 months

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Absence of USLs containing MGIN, HGIN or cancer

    Efficacy defined as the absence of USLs containing MGIN, HGIN or cancer within the original TA after the last endoscopic ablation.

    Measured: 12 months

  2. Complete eradication after one treatment

    Percentage of subjects achieving complete eradication after one treatment session with the CryoBalloon Ablation System

    Measured: 12 months

  3. Device performance

    Device performance, assessed by Device malfunction

    Measured: Day 0

  4. Procedure time

    Procedure time, defined as the time from the introduction of the endoscope to its removal

    Measured: Day 0

  5. Adverse Events

    Incidence of all treatment-related and serious, non-device related adverse events

    Measured: 12 Months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing CryoBalloon Focal Ablation System in people with Esophageal Squamous Cell Dysplasia, run by Pentax Medical at 1 site in China.

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 8 inclusion and 9 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 20 Apr 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. 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 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?

Serious, device-related adverse events (time frame: Day 30). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT02605759, 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 20 Apr 2022.
