Clinical Evaluation of a Novel Wearable Compression Technology in the Treatment of Lymphedema, An Open-Label Controlled Study (DAYSPRING)

May 28, 2021 updated by: Koya Medical, Inc.

An open-label study to clinically assess a novel wearable advanced compression technology (Dayspring™) undertaken to determine if potential barriers to lymphedema self-care were effectively addressed. The Dayspring™ device is a novel FDA-cleared wearable solution that is portable and easy-to-use sequential compression system. The following endpoints are examined:

  1. Improvement in QoL in subject with upper-extremity edema after 28 days as measured by the LYMQOL disease-specific validated assessment tool.
  2. Arm volume maintenance or improvement as measured prior to and after 28 days of device use.
  3. Safety as assessed by reported adverse events
  4. Patient satisfaction as measured by visual analog scale (VAS) and survey at the end of the study; and
  5. Adherence to therapy as measured with a smart phone app.

Study Overview

Status

Status

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

Study Type

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.

40

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.

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

14 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

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
LYMQOL (LYMphedema Quality of Life)
Time Frame: 28 days
The Lymphedema Quality of Life Questionnaire (LYMQOL), a validated disease-specific QoL tool, was also administered at baseline and at day 28. Overall QoL is scored on a single item by the patient on a scale of 1-10.
28 days
Arm Volume Maintenance or Improvement
Time Frame: 28 days
Limb volume measurement was performed by using a calibrated tape measure to measure circumference from the wrist and the ulnar styloid process and at 4cm increments to the axilla. Measurements were taken for both upper extremities. If both extremities exhibited edema, a study arm was designated for treatment. Measurements were taken by the same investigator throughout the study. Volume was calculated based on cylindrical segment analysis.
28 days
Safety/AEs
Time Frame: 28 days
As assessed by reported adverse events
28 days
Therapy adherence tracking
Time Frame: 28 days
Therapy adherence tracked via the mobile app linked to the Dayspring™ device.
28 days

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
Patient survey
Time Frame: 28 days
A visual analog scale (VAS) and study survey were administered at the end of the study to measure patient satisfaction (day 28). The six-item questionnaire was used to document the time of day the device was used, if daily activities were supported during use, function, and symptoms. All were measured on a scale from 1-5. The VAS was administered to previous users of pneumatic compression devices to assess preference and likelihood to recommend to others with lymphedema.
