Study summary

The goal of this observational study is to gather additional safety and performance (effectiveness) data on the device for the treatment of symptomatic lower extremity venous obstructions and occlusions. The main questions the study aims to answer are:

  • What is the observed rate of safety events through the 30-day follow-up?
  • What is the rate of technical success (acute procedural success) achieved at the index procedure?

Participants already undergoing treatment with the Recana as part of their regular medical care will be followed for 1 year.

Read the detailed description

The CALIBER Registry is a prospective, multi-center, non-randomized, non-interventional (observational) registry of the Recana Thrombectomy Catheter System for the treatment of symptomatic venous obstructions. Commensurate with the continuum of care and usual practice for the follow-up of the study population, subjects are assessed at post-procedure/discharge, 30-day (30D), 180-day (180D) and 365-day (365D) post-index procedure [reporting on these timepoints are based on standard of care clinic visits that occur closest to timepoints at 30D, 180D and 365D post-procedure].

Terms in these criteria, in plain language(5)

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.

Hypersensitivity

An allergy, or another reaction of the immune system, to a substance. “Hypersensitivity to the study drug” means a known allergic reaction to it — not every side effect a medicine can have.

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.

Life expectancy

The study doctor’s estimate of how long someone is likely to live. Criteria use it so that people can stay in the study long enough for it to answer its question.

Investigational drug or device

A drug or device being studied in a clinical trial.

It may be new, or already approved and being studied for another use, dose or form. Criteria often leave out people who took part in another study of one within a recent period, commonly 30 days or five half-lives.

    Time frame: From Index Procedure (Day 0) to 30-Days Post-Procedure

  2. Immediate Technical Success (Acute Procedural Success)

    • Defined as patency ≥50% luminal diameter measured by IVUS at the end of the procedure

    Time frame: Index Procedure (Day 0)

Secondary outcomes

  1. Incidence rates of the following: (1) Individual components of the MAE composite endpoint; (2) Minor bleeding; and (3) Access site complications from the index procedure (hematoma, false aneurysm, perforation)

    Incidence rates (counts) through 30-days of 3 outcome measures: (1) Individual components of the MAE composite endpoint (death (all-cause mortality), major bleeding, and symptomatic pulmonary embolism); (2) Minor bleeding; and (3) Access site complications from the index procedure (hematoma, false aneurysm, perforation).

    Time frame: From Index Procedure (Day 0) to 30-Days Post-Procedure

  2. Incidence rate of device-related death

    Incidence rate (count) of any device-related death through 365-days post-procedure.

    Time frame: From Index Procedure (Day 0) through study completion assessed up to 365-days post-procedure

  3. Incidence rate of procedure-related death

    Incidence rate (count) of any procedure-related death through 365-days post-procedure.

    Time frame: From Index Procedure (Day 0) through study completion assessed up to 365-days post-procedure

  4. Patency rates of Target Venous Segment (TVS)

    TVS patency determined by duplex ultrasound or other imaging modality preferred by investigator through 365-days post-procedure.

    Time frame: From Index Procedure (Day 0) through study completion assessed up to 365-days post-procedure

  5. Incidence rate of device-related rethrombosis of the Target Venous Segment (TVS)

    Incidence rate (count) of device-related rethrombosis of the Target Venous Segment (TVS) through 365-days post-procedure.

    Time frame: From Index Procedure (Day 0) through study completion assessed up to 365-days post-procedure

    Time frame: From Index Procedure (Day 0) through study completion assessed up to 365-days post-procedure

  7. Comparison of baseline target limb edema to the 365-Days Post-Procedure score

    Target limb edema determined using the edema scale of the revised Venous Clinical Severity Score (rVCSS) at baseline (pre-procedure) will be compared to edema observed at 365-days post-procedure.

    Time frame: From Index Procedure (Day 0) through study completion assessed up to 365-days post-procedure

  8. Comparison of baseline revised Venous Clinical Severity Score (rVCSS) to the rVCSS at 365-Days Post-Procedure

    The revised Venous Clinical Severity Score (rVCSS) is comprised of 10 clinical categories. The scoring ranges from 0 (none) to 3 (severe) for each category, depending on the presence and severity of symptoms, signs, and the use of compression therapy. The scores are added to calculate the total rVCSS. A separate score is assigned to each leg. Total rVCSS ranges from 0 to 30, with higher numbers correlating to more severe symptoms, significant impairment to quality of life, and more advanced chronic venous insufficiency. The baseline rVCSS will be compared to the rVCSS obtained at 365-days post-procedure,

    Time frame: From Index Procedure (Day 0) through study completion up assessed to 365-days post-procedure

  9. Comparison of baseline Villalta Score with the Villalta Score obtained 365-Days Post-Procedure

    The Villalta score is a clinical tool used to assess the severity of chronic venous disease (CVD) in the setting of Post Thrombotic Syndrome (PTS). The scoring ranges from 0 (none) to 3 (severe) based on the severity of signs and symptoms. A separate score is assigned to each leg. The total score for one leg is the sum of all scores for each symptom and clinical sign for that leg, and the total Villalta score ranges from 0 to 33 with higher scores correlating to worse outcomes (more severe clinical signs and symptoms). The presence of venous ulcers indicates severe PTS. A total Villalta score of 0-4 indicates no disease (negative for PTS); a score of 5-9 indicates mild disease; a score of 10-14 indicates moderate disease; and a score of 15 or greater indicates severe disease. The baseline Villalta score will be compared to the Villalta score obtained at 365-days post-procedure.

    Time frame: From Index Procedure (Day 0) through study completion assessed up to 365-days post-procedure

  10. Comparison of baseline VEINES Quality of Life (QoL)/Symptom (Sym) Scores with the VEINES Quality of Life (QoL)/Symptom (Sym) Scores obtained 365-Days Post-Procedure

    The VEINES-QoL/Sym is a 26-item, self-administered questionnaire measuring quality of life (QoL) and symptoms (Sym) in patients with chronic venous disorders or deep vein thrombosis (DVT). It evaluates symptom severity, frequency, and daily impact, providing two distinct scores - VEINES-QoL and VEINES-Sym - with higher scores indicating better outcomes. The VEINES-QoL component evaluates the impact of venous disease on daily life, social functioning, and physical limitations. The VEINES-Sym component assesses specific symptoms, including heavy legs, aching, swelling, night cramps, heat/burning, restless legs, throbbing, itching, and tingling. Scores can range from 0-100, where higher scores indicate better outcomes (higher quality of life and less severe symptoms). The baseline VEINES-QoL/Sym scores will be compared to the VEINES-QoL/Sym scores obtained at 365-days post-procedure.

    Time frame: From Index Procedure (Day 0) through study completion assessed up to 365-days post-procedure
