Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: Retrospective patients (those who already have one of the Medcomp LTHD catheters inserted) will be enrolled. Retrospective patients from the previous 36 months will be approached for participation in the study. Patients who have previously received a Medcomp LTHD catheter will also be approached for consent and assessment of eligibility.

Who may be able to join

  • ≥ 18 years of age at the time of enrollment
  • Patients who have previously received the Medcomp subject device or patients currently receiving hemodialysis treatment, who have had a Medcomp subject device implanted for >90 days
  • Health records relevant to this study are complete and accessible by Study team at the hemodialysis center, implantation center, medical facilities where complications are treated, and by the participating Principal Investigator (PI)
  • Subject or authorized representative participated in the Informed Consent process and signed/dated the relevant institutional ethics committee approved Informed Consent form

Who cannot join

  • Meet any of the contraindications listed on the Medcomp Long Term Hemodialysis Catheter Instructions for Use
  • Participation in any other drug, device, or biologic study concomitantly, or within the last 30 days (which may clinically interfere with this Study in the opinion of the sponsor in consultation with the Principal Investigator)

About this study

Official title: Post-Market Clinical Follow-up Study - Open Label, Consecutive Series, Observational Study on the Use of Medcomp Long Term Catheters for Hemodialysis (LTHD)

The primary objective of this observational PMCF study is to collect clinical data on the safety and efficacy of Medcomp Long Term Hemodialysis (LTHD) Catheter Kits in compliance with MDR 2017/745.

Read the detailed description

The Observational Study will enroll a target of 198 subjects across two cohorts of 89 patients per cohort, with each cohort representing one catheter type. Retrospective patients previously treated with either a Hemo-Flow or Titan HD catheter will be enrolled. The primary endpoint of this study for all device families is insertion success. For the purposes of this data, a successful insertion will be defined as the successful initiation of vascular access device insertion, as determined by the investigator.

Conditions
CKD, ESRD
Being tested
Long term hemodialysis catheter
Medical subject headings
Kidney Failure, Chronic

Study groups in NCT04782297
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Titan HD CatheterThe Titan HD Catheter is a double lumen catheter that provides 2 dedicated (arterial/venous) access lumens. Each lumen is connected through an extension line with female luer connectors. The arterial and venous catheter lumens connect to a hub to facilitate connection of extension tubes with clamps intended to prevent air/fluid communication and control fluid flow through the catheter. At the proximal end of the extension tubes are female Luer fittings to provide a needleless connection. The clamps and the sleeves are color-coded red for the arterial lumen and blue for the venous lumen. Each catheter has a cuff which is intended to be positioned underneath the skin at the skin exit to aid in securing the catheter and to provide a barrier to minimize the risk of infection. Each lumen is connected through an extension line with female Luer connectors. The transition between lumen and extension is housed within a molded hub.
Receives: Device: Long term hemodialysis catheter
Hemo-Flow CatheterThe Hemo-Flow® Catheter has two lumens (one arterial lumen, one venous lumen) comprised of a biocompatible polymeric material that contains radiopaque filler to allow radiographic imaging of the distal tips to ensure proper placement into the superior vena cava. The arterial lumen is utilized to withdraw blood from the patient and the venous lumen returns the blood to the patient after treatment
Receives: Device: Long term hemodialysis catheter

What is being measured

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

  1. Insertion Success

    Successful initiation of vascular access device insertion, as determined by the investigator.

    Measured: Percentage at Insertion

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Adverse Events (Infection per 1000 catheter days)

    Infection, Removals due to infection or thrombosis, catheter related blood stream infection (CRBSI)

    Measured: 1000 catheter days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of CKD and ESRD, run by Medical Components, Inc dba MedComp at 2 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 4 inclusion and 2 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 10 Jan 2024. 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, Spain. 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?

Insertion Success (time frame: Percentage at Insertion). 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 10 Jan 2024.
