Randomized Comparison of the RePneu Lung Volume Reduction Coil (LVRC) to Standard of Care for the Treatment of Emphysema (RESET Study)

Phase 1
Completed
Conditions
Emphysema
Interventions
Device: Control
Device: Lung Volume Reduction Coil (LVRC) (PneumRx)
Registration Number
NCT01334307
Lead Sponsor
Boston Scientific Corporation
Brief Summary

The objective of this study is to demonstrate the safety and performance of the PneumRx, Inc. Lung Volume Reduction Coil (LVRC) in a population of patients with emphysema. The PneumRx, Inc. LVRC is used as a less invasive alternative to lung volume reduction surgery.
