First Local Anaesthesia Thoracoscopy for Pleural Effusion Diagnosis.
Non randomized study with two groups. The study group includes patients with suspected malignant pleural effusion, in whom the investigation of pleural effusion begins directly with pleural biopsy by Local Anesthesia Thoracoscopy (LAT). The Control Group includes patients who come to the same hospital and are treated with the Standard …
Clinical Validation of Programmable Drain Fluid Regulator to Reduce Morbidity, Care Requirements, and Improve Outcomes
The goal of this Effidrain first-in-human medical device trial is to improve the outcomes of patients with pleural effusions and ascites. The main aims are: The primary aim of this first-in-man device pivotal study (n=120) is to demonstrate that the body fluid drain regulator can perform the function of pleural …
Pleuroscopy First Versus Thoracentesis First in Patients with Suspected Malignant Pleural Effusions
This is a randomized control trial of patients with suspected malignant pleural effusions to compare whether patients who have a thoracentesis or pleuroscopy (pleural biopsy) obtain an adequate biopsy, achieve a diagnosis, and begin cancer-directed therapy faster.
OPC5: Pressurized IntraThoracic Aerosol Chemotherapy (PITAC) in Patients With Malignant Pleural Effusion.
This study will monitor and evaluate patient and personnel safety and toxicity during the implementation and evaluation of Pressurized IntraThoracic Aerosol Chemotherapy (PITAC) directed treatment. Furthermore, this study will focus on Quality of Life questionnaires, LENT score, and evaluate pain and breathlessness using af visual analogue scales (VAS).
A Phase Ib Study of JMKX000197 Injection in the Treatment of Malignant Pleural Effusion
A Phase Ib Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerance, Pharmacokinetics, Pharmacodynamics, and Preliminary Efficacy of JMKX000197 Injection in the Treatment of Malignant Pleural Effusion
Alteplase Through an Indwelling Pleural Catheter for the Management of Symptomatic Septated Malignant Pleural Effusion
This study investigates whether alteplase can help to improve pleural fluid drainage and dyspnea (breathlessness) in patients with non-draining malignant pleural effusion. Alteplase helps dissolve blood clots and is used to treat heart attacks, strokes, and clots in the lungs. Alteplase may help to control symptoms of breathlessness.
Effectiveness and Safety of Sodium Bicarbonate Pleural Lavage in the Treatment of Complex Pleural Effusion
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of sodium bicarbonate pleural lavage in treating complex pleural effusion in adult. The main questions it aims to answer are: Will sodium bicarbonate pleural lavage reduce the failure rate of medical treatment (referral rate for surgery) for …
Strategy for Prompt and Effective Thoracentesis in the Emergency Department
The SPEEDTAP-trial is a prospective, randomised, investigator-initiated, multicenter, clinical superior trial investigating two thoracentesis methods in four emergency departments (ED) in Central Denmark Region. Patients are randomised to either manual fluid removal in the ED or passively fluid drainage using gravity in the radiology department (standard of care). Primary outcome: …
A Phase Ib/II Clinical Trial of M701 in the Treatment of Malignant Pleural Effusions Caused by NSCLC
This is a phase 1/phase 2, multicenter, open-label study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, PK, PD, immunogenicity and preliminary efficacy of M701 in patients with treatment of malignant pleural effusions caused by NSCLC.
IFN-γ Combined With T Cells in the Treatment of Refractory Malignant Pleural Effusion and Ascites
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of IFN- Y combined with T cells in the treatment of refractory malignant pleural effusion and acties, using a multicenter, single-arm, open design.
