  • The Percepta® Registry: A Prospective Registry to Evaluate Percepta® Bronchial Genomic Classifier Patient Data

Purpose
A bronchial genomic classifier was developed and validated to improve the sensitivity and NPV of bronchoscopy for lung cancer detection. The Percepta® classifier identifies patients at low risk of malignancy who may be considered for radiographic monitoring instead of invasive procedure following inconclusive bronchoscopy. This registry is designed to observe physician adoption, evaluate the impact of Percepta on management decisions, and monitor test safety.

  • A Prospective, Multi-Center, Randomized, Controlled, Pivotal Trial to Validate the Safety and Efficacy of the Hemolung® Respiratory Assist System for COPD Patients Experiencing an Acute Exacerbation Requiring Ventilatory Support

Purpose
This study evaluates the safety and efficacy of using the Hemolung RAS to provide low-flow extracorporeal carbon dioxide removal (ECCO2R) as an alternative or adjunct to invasive mechanical ventilation for patients who require respiratory support due to an acute exacerbation of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). It is hypothesized that the Hemolung RAS can be safely used to avoid or reduce time on invasive mechanical ventilation compared to COPD patients treated with standard-of-care mechanical ventilation alone. Eligible patients will be randomized to receive lung support with either the Hemolung RAS plus standard-of-care mechanical ventilation, or standard-of-care mechanical ventilation alone.

Study Drug
None

Status

  • A Phase IV Open-Label Pharmacokinetic Study of Minocycline for Injection Following a Single Infusion in Critically-Ill Adults (ACUMIN)

Purpose
This is a Phase IV, multi-center open-label pharmacokinetic trial studying the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of a single dose of Minocin IV. Up to 67 subjects will be enrolled to obtain 50 evaluable, ICU patients who are already receiving antimicrobial therapy for a known or suspected Gram-negative infection. The entire study duration will be approximately 12 months and each subject participation duration will be approximately 2 days depending on whether any follow-up is needed. The study will be conducted at approximately 10 clinical sites. Each subject will receive a single 200 mg dose of Minocin IV infused over approximately 60 minutes. Each subject will have 7 PK samples collected (1 pre-dose, 6 post-dose) at designated time points over a ~48 hour period following the start of the Minocin IV infusion. The primary objectives are: 1) To characterize minocycline PK at the population level in critically-ill adults, with illness known or suspected to be caused by infection with Gram-negative bacteria and 2) To assess patient-level and clinical covariates associated with minocycline pharmacokinetic properties in critically-ill adults, with illness known or suspected to be caused by infection with Gram-negative bacteria.

Study Drug
Minocycline
