E.2.3 | Trial contains a sub-study | Information not present in EudraCT |
E.3 | Principal inclusion criteria | Pre-operative: Informed consent obtained, 18 years of age or above, planned elective lobectomy for lung malingnancy with intrapulmonary lymphadenectomy (with antero- or postero-lateral incision), use of adequate contraception for females. After pulmonary lobectomy: Air leakage of grade 1 or 2 | |
E.4 | Principal exclusion criteria | Pre-operative: Previous lung surgery on the same side; anti-tumour chemotherapy within last 3 weeks; radiotherapy for lung malingnancy within last 4 weeks; allergic reactions after application of human fibrinogen, human thrombin and/or collagen of any origin; emergency surgery, FEV1 (forced expiratory volume) < 40%; previousely exposure to TachoComb, TachoComb H or TachoSil; present abuse of drug or alcohol, participation in any other trial with an investigational drug or device within 30 days prior to inclusion, participation or planned praticipation in another trial during the trial period; positive pregnancy test (females) and breastfeeding (females). After pulmonary lobectomy: Serious complications including need for surgical adhesiolysis of the remaining lung tissue, pneumonectomy, wedge or sleeve resection of the lung, use of any fibrin sealant (including TachoSil) before randomisation. | |
