10 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
This research is being done to evaluate the feasibility, and biopsy quality, of using a 1.1mm disposable cryoprobe that is passed through the working channel of the Ion Robotic bronchoscope to collect biopsy tissue.
To collect data on diagnostic yield of thin and ultrathin bronchoscopes with radial probe endobronchial ultrasound (radial EBUS) and transbronchial needle aspiration (TBNA) during routine standard of care bronchoscopy for peripheral pulmonary lesions.
In this study, the feasibility of performing robotic navigation of peripheral airways in human subjects for the purpose of biopsying peripheral lung lesions will be evaluated.
Despite technological advancements directed towards the diagnosis of peripheral pulmonary lesions, an optimal approach has yet to be designed. The potential advantages of catheter based techniques include the ability to utilize instruments smaller than the diameter of a conventional bronchoscope, thereby allowing better access to the lung periphery. The drawbacks of a catheter based approach include the relative inability to steer a conventional catheter, and the inability to perform direct visualization and airway inspection through a conventional catheter. This study will evaluate a novel steerable catheter system with optical capabilities and pair this with electromagnetic navigation bronchoscopy to biopsy peripheral pulmonary lesions.
RELIANT 2 is a pragmatic randomized controlled trial. The goal of this study is to compare the diagnostic yield of robotic assisted bronchoscopy with integrated cone beam computed tomography to that of electromagnetic navigation bronchoscopy with integrated digital tomosynthesis in patients undergoing bronchoscopy to biopsy a pulmonary lesion.
This is an investigator-initiated, cluster randomized controlled trial. The primary objective is to compare the diagnostic yield of the Ion™ Endoluminal System (SSCB) to the ILLUMISITE™ Platform (EMN bronchoscopy) in patients undergoing bronchoscopy for peripheral pulmonary lesion (PPL) evaluation.
The objectives of this study are to evaluate intraoperative percutaneous lung lesion marking assisted by electromagnetic guided percutaneous navigation and related tools.
The purpose of this study is to compare the yield of two methods for obtaining a lung tissue sample: Procedure #1: standard fiberoptic bronchoscopy (FB) with fluoroscopy, and Procedure #2: ultrathin bronchoscope procedure with fluoroscopy and radial endobronchial ultrasound (R-EBUS). These two procedures are similar in that they both: (1) enable your doctor to look inside your lungs with a device called a bronchoscope, and (2) Use fluoroscopy, which is a technique that uses X-rays to see your lungs. This will give the doctor an opportunity to use either of the bronchoscopy methods described above and compare the tests to see if R-EBUS provides better results than standard bronchoscopy.
The goal of this clinical research study is to test the use of a minimally invasive multimodality image-guided (MIMIG) intervention system used for performing a lung biopsy. The safety of the MIMIG intervention system will also be studied.
This study is designed to evaluate clinical safety and diagnostic accuracy of the robotic-assisted bronchoscopy with biopsy performed with the Monarch™ Endoscopy Platform in a broad range of patients with pulmonary lesions.
