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.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

19 years to 85 years (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Sampling Method

Probability Sample

Study Population

Patients are eligible for inclusion if they are scheduled for a vena cava filter implant with the Crux VCF System or have had a Crux VCF implanted within the previous 6 months for any of the following situations:

  1. Pulmonary thromboembolism when anticoagulation therapy is contraindicated;
  2. Failure of anticoagulation therapy in thromboembolic disease;
  3. Emergency treatment following massive pulmonary embolism where anticipated benefits of conventional therapy are reduced; and
  4. Chronic, recurrent pulmonary embolism where anticoagulant therapy has failed or is contraindicated.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. The patient is >18 years of age.
  2. Patient or their legally authorized representative understands the research nature of the study and is willing and capable of providing informed consent.
  3. Scheduled for and receives a Crux VCF implant or;
  4. Have previously had a Crux VCF implanted within the previous 6 months.

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Patient is scheduled for filter implant, but did not have a Crux VCF filter implanted due to anatomical exclusions or technical failures.
  2. Patients unwilling or unable to comply with the protocol and provide informed consent.
  3. Female patient of childbearing potential who is pregnant (she must have negative pregnancy test within the 48 hours prior to implantation and any retrieval procedure)
  4. Patient is participating in another device or drug clinical trial that interferes with this protocol follow up schedule.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Prevention of Pulmonary Embolism
Time Frame: 2 years
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.

Study record dates

These dates track the progress of study record and summary results submissions to ClinicalTrials.gov. Study records and reported results are reviewed by the National Library of Medicine (NLM) to make sure they meet specific quality control standards before being posted on the public website.

Study Major Dates

Study Start

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.
January 1, 2016

Primary Completion (Anticipated)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.

Study Completion (Anticipated)

Study Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention/treatment to collect final data for the primary outcome measures, secondary outcome measures, and adverse events (that is, the last participant's last visit). The "anticipated" study completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the study completion date.
