Alteplase Through an Indwelling Pleural Catheter for the Management of Symptomatic Septated Malignant Pleural Effusion
A Randomized Trial of Alteplase Versus Placebo Through an Indwelling Pleural Catheter for Management of Symptomatic Septated MPE
Study Overview
Status
Intervention / Treatment
Detailed Description
PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:
I. To evaluate dyspnea using the Borg score at one week in patients with symptomatic septated malignant pleural effusion (MPE) and indwelling pleural catheter (IPC) with inability to drain fully that are treated with intrapleural alteplase.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVE:
I. To evaluate dyspnea using the visual analog scale (VAS) scale at one week in patients with septated MPE and IPC and inability to drain fully that are treated with intrapleural alteplase.
OUTLINE: Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 arms.
ARM I: Patients receive alteplase instilled into the IPC which is capped for 1-2 hours before the catheter is drained.
ARM II: Patients receive placebo instilled into the IPC which is capped for 1-2 hours before the catheter is drained. Beginning 1 week later, patients may receive alteplase as in arm I.

Description
Inclusion Criteria:
- Referral to pulmonary services for inability to drain fully via IPC
- Presence of a symptomatic septated pleural effusion
A pleural effusion of significant moderate to large volume based on:
- Chest radiograph: effusion filling >= 1/3 of the hemithorax, or
- Computed tomography (CT)-scan: AP depth of the effusion >= 1/3 of the AP dimension on the axial image superior to the hemidiaphragm, including atelectatic lung surrounded by effusion, or
- Ultrasound: effusion spanning at least three intercostal spaces, with a >= 3 cm in at least one intercostal space, while the patient sits upright
- Age > 18
- Borg score >= 3
- Absence of a blocked IPC as demonstrated by a flush with 20 cc of saline x1 without resistance
- Draining < 150 cc and > 50 cc via IPC at follow up post IPC placement based on patient's drainage record
- Presence of septated effusion based on ultrasound (US) and chest CT
Exclusion Criteria:
- Inability to provide informed consent
Study subject has any disease or condition that interferes with safe completion of the study including:
- Uncorrectable Coagulopathy based on criteria followed by cardiopulmonary center for procedures. This will include patients on anticoagulation that can't be stopped
- Active bleeding
- Known allergic reaction to thrombolytics
- Pleural effusion is smaller than expected on bedside pre-procedure ultrasound
- No septations and/or no loculations on bedside pre-procedure ultrasound
- Patient is asymptomatic
- Blocked IPC as determined by saline flush
- Inability to undergo CT chest
