A Prospective Randomized Multi-Centered Study and Efficacy Evaluation of the Bio-Seal Biopsy Track Plug for Reducing Pneumothorax Rates Post Lung Biopsy Procedures
In Brief
A Phase 3 clinical trial evaluating Bio-Seal Track Plug and No lung plug for Lung Cancer. Completed, enrolled 77 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate safety and effectiveness of the Bio-Seal Biopsy Track Plug in a clinical setting for use in lung biopsy procedures to reduce the rate of air leaks, commonly associated with the procedure. The Bio-Seal System is cleared in the U.S. with an indication for use as a lung biopsy site marker.

Timeline
Interventions
The lung plug will be inserted into the left track when the biopsy needle is removed. The smaller sampling needle is removed, and the lung plug is inserted through the larger needle using a delivery tool that has a plunger to push the plug in place. The lung plug remains in the track left when the larger needle is removed.
Standard lung biopsy without placement of the plug.
