A Study of ECHELON™ 3000 (Next Generation Powered Stapler) in General Abdominal and Thoracic Lung Resection Procedures

Overview

About this study

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and performance of the ECHELON™ 3000 Stapler (next generation powered stapler) and reload system in participants undergoing laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy or lung resection procedures (Video-Assisted Thoracoscopic [ATS] or open approach).

Participation eligibility

Participant eligibility includes age, gender, type and stage of disease, and previous treatments or health concerns. Guidelines differ from study to study, and identify who can or cannot participate. There is no guarantee that every individual who qualifies and wants to participate in a trial will be enrolled. Contact the study team to discuss study eligibility and potential participation.

Inclusion Criteria:

Adult and pediatric populations satisfying the following criteria will be considered eligible for enrollment in this study:

Primary procedure where the ECHELON™ 3000 Stapler and reload system is planned to be used for tissue transection per the IFU (with or without the use of a robot) in the following:
- Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy procedure;
- Lung resection procedure (VATS or open).
Willingness to give consent and comply with all study-related evaluations and visit schedule.

Exclusion Criteria:

Subjects meeting any of the following criteria (preoperatively) will be considered ineligible for enrollment in this study:

Physical or psychological condition which would impair study participation.
Procedure is a revision/reoperation for the same indication or same anatomical location.
A procedure where surgical stapling is contraindicated.
Concurrent treatment with medications that the investigator deems could have influence on wound healing.
Enrollment in a concurrent interventional clinical study that could impact the study endpoints.

Note: Other protocol defined Inclusion/Exclusion Criteria may apply.

Eligibility last updated 11/2/23. Questions regarding updates should be directed to the study team contact.

Transection of gastric tissue during laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) can be challenging. Reinforcing the staple line may decrease the incidence of issues requiring intervention. Read More on PubMed
Lung cancer is one of the most prevalent malignancies worldwide. The number of anatomic lung cancer resections performed via video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) is growing rapidly. Staplers are widely used in VATS procedures, but there is limited clinical data regarding how they might affect performance and postoperative outcomes, including air leak. This clinical trial assessed the use of a powered stapler in VATS lung resection, with a primary study endpoint being occurrence and duration of air leak and prolonged air leak (PAL).
