A Clinical Trial to Evaluate Safety and Efficacy of Endovascualr Denervation in Treatment of Cancer Pain

July 8, 2019 updated by: Shanghai Golden Leaf MedTec Co. Ltd

A Prospective, Multicenter, Self-Control Clinical Trial to Evaluate Safety and Efficacy of Endovascular Denervation in Treatment of Cancer Pain

A prospective, multicenter, self-control clinical trial aim to enroll 110 patients suffered from upper abdominal (liver, pancreas, stomach, etc.) cancers . Patients who have taken at least one opioid drug for pain for two weeks and still have a VAS pain scale greater than 6 will receive endovascular denervation (EDN). They will be followed up for 3 months. The VAS scales, quantity of analgesics as represented by morphine equivalent and quality of life scores will be compared before and after EDN. Safety parameters such as arterial deformation, embolism, infection, liver and kidney functions will also be monitored.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Unknown

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Study Type

Enrollment (Anticipated)

Enrollment

The number of participants in a clinical study. The "anticipated" enrollment is the target number of participants that the researchers need for the study.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Study Contact

Study Contact

The name and contact information for the person who can answer enrollment questions for a clinical study. Each location where the study is being conducted may also have a specific contact, who may be better able to answer those questions.

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.

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
Visual Analog Scale Changes over the time
Time Frame: Pre-treatment; 1, 3, 15, 30, 60, and 90 days after treatment.
Pain scale is evaluated as Woodforde Visual Analig Scale (VAS) method. The scale is from 0 to 10, with 0 being no pain, and 10 being unbearable pain.
Pre-treatment; 1, 3, 15, 30, 60, and 90 days after treatment.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Morphine Equivalent Changes over the time
Time Frame: Pre-treatment; 1, 3, 15, 30, 60, and 90 days after treatment.
All analgesics used will be calculated to Morphine Equivalent using published conversion factors.
Pre-treatment; 1, 3, 15, 30, 60, and 90 days after treatment.
Quality of Life Score Changes over the time
Time Frame: Pre-treatment; 1, 3, 15, 30, 60, and 90 days after treatment.
Qulaity of Life Scores are obtained using Functional Assessment of Cancer Theray-Generic Scale (FACT-G) (v 4.0) sale. The score is from 0 to 108, with 0 being no quality of life, and 108 being highest quality of life.
Pre-treatment; 1, 3, 15, 30, 60, and 90 days after treatment.
