Perivenous Dexamethasone Therapy: Examining Reduction of Inflammation After Thrombus Removal to Yield Benefit in Acute Femoropopliteal DVT

Perivenous Dexamethasone Therapy: Examining Reduction of Inflammation After Thrombus Removal to Yield Benefit in Acute Femoropopliteal DVT (DEXTERITY-AFP)


Sponsor

Mercator MedSystems, Inc.

Enrollment

80 participants

Start Date

Oct 29, 2021

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Summary

This is a study of a medical procedure that utilizes a commercially available catheter (the Bullfrog® Micro-Infusion Device) to locally deliver a commercially available anti-inflammatory drug (dexamethasone sodium phosphate injection) around the deep veins after DVT recanalization, where DVT symptoms were present for up to 14 days prior to recanalization. The goal of the study is to see if local anti-inflammation helps prevent re-thrombosis of the blood vessel and improvement in symptoms for up to 24 months after the initial DVT recanalization procedure.


Eligibility

Min Age: 18 YearsMax Age: 89 Years

Plain Language Summary

Simplified for easier understanding

This study is testing whether injecting a steroid (dexamethasone) around the vein during a clot-removal procedure (thrombectomy) helps reduce inflammation and improve long-term outcomes for people with a type of deep vein blood clot (DVT) in the leg. **You may be eligible if...** - You are between 18 and 89 years old - You have been diagnosed with a deep vein thrombosis (blood clot) in your femoral or popliteal vein (upper or lower leg vein) - You are willing to follow the study schedule and attend follow-up visits - You (if female and of childbearing potential) are using effective contraception **You may NOT be eligible if...** - You have certain health conditions that make dexamethasone unsafe - You are unwilling to comply with study procedures Talk to your doctor to see if this trial is right for you.
