Study summary

A post market clinical study to confirm the performance and safety of the LeMaitre® TufTex Single Lumen Embolectomy Catheter on patients undergoing surgical treatment for the removal of arterial emboli and/or thrombi

Read the detailed description

This prospective, single arm, post market clinical study was designed to proactively collect clinical data on the LeMaitre® TufTex Single Lumen Embolectomy Catheters and to confirm its performance in removing arterial emboli and/or thrombi, to identify and analyze emergent risks on the basis of factual evidence, and to ensure the continued acceptability of the benefit/risk ratio. This post market study is sponsored by LeMaitre® Vascular, Inc., the manufacturer of the device. Study will take place at 3 to 8 sites in Europe, the target sample size is 112 patients.

Terms in these criteria, in plain language(2)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

Contraindication

A reason a treatment, test or procedure should not be given to a particular person, such as an allergy, another illness or a medicine they take.

    LeMaitre TufTex Single Lumen Embolectomy Catheter

    The LeMaitre® Single Lumen Embolectomy Catheter is a catheter that consists of a natural latex rubber balloon secured with ligatures to a single lumen radiopaque shaft. When the balloon the emboli and/or thrombi can be removed by withdrawing the catheter tip through the arteriotomy.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Safety objective is defined as acceptable safety outcomes (e.g. (Serious) Device and/or Procedure Related Events) during the procedure

    The primary safety objective is defined as acceptable safety outcomes (e.g. (Serious) Device and/or Procedure Related Events) during the procedure and 1 Month post index procedure.

    Time frame: During procedure and 1 month post index procedure

  2. Performance objective is the technical success as defined as <30% residual stenosis

    The primary performance objective is the technical success as defined as \<30% residual stenosis of the target vessel.

    Time frame: 1 month post index procedure

Secondary outcomes

  1. 1. Clinical success

    Clinical success is target vessel dependent and defined as; (1) The absence of target vessel limb amputation post-intervention in case of limb cloths, and 2. successful dialysis sessions performed post-intervention in case of dialysis shunt revascularization (2) Revision rate is defined as the number of patients with target vessel reintervention (3) Primary assisted patency is defined as target vessel patency; the target vessel is patent but there may have been some intervention required to maintain that patency. (4) Secondary patency is defined as the target vessel patency including target vessel that have been occluded and there has been an intervention to restore patency.

    Time frame: 1 Month after the index procedure

  2. 2. Revision Rate

    Revision rate is defined as the number of patients with target vessel reintervention

    Time frame: 1 month post index procedure

  3. 3. Primary Assisted Patency

    Primary assisted patency is defined as target vessel patency; the target vessel is patent but there may have been some intervention required to maintain that patency.

    Time frame: 1 month post index procedure

  4. 4. Secondary Patency

    Secondary patency is defined as the target vessel patency including target vessel that have been occluded and there has been an intervention to restore patency.

    Time frame: 1 month post index procedure

Other outcomes

  1. Exploratory endpoints

    Number of LeMaitre® Embolectomy Catheters used per intervention Number of balloon tears per intervention.

    Time frame: 1 month post index procedure

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Oct 18, 2024, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
