Clinical Study Summaries
FEV1 Percent Change
from Baseline to 12 Months
Published in The American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine1
The benefits are comparable to those seen with LVRS (lung volume reduction surgery) but with a reduction in post-procedure morbidity.”
- Multicenter, multinational, randomized controlled trial
- Results out to 12 months
- Heterogeneous emphysema with little to no collateral ventilation
- Clinically meaningful and statistically significant benefits over current standard of care medical therapy
- Improvements in:
- Lung function
- Exercise tolerance
- Dyspnea
- Quality of life
FEV1 Percent Change
from Baseline to 6 Months
Published in The American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine2
Benefits are in line with those seen with LVRS (lung volume reduction surgery), and the consistent trial results, potential reduction in post-procedure morbidity, and reversibility of the procedure position Zephyr Valve treatment as a viable treatment option in those who remain symptomatic on maximal medical therapy.”
- Multicenter, multinational, randomized controlled trial
- Heterogeneous emphysema with little or no collateral ventilation
- Clinically meaningful and statistically significant benefits over current standard of care medical therapy
- Improvements in:
- Lung function
- Exercise tolerance
- Dyspnea
- Quality of life
FEV1 Percent Change
from Baseline to 6 Months
Published in The American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine3
EBV therapy in selected patients with homogeneous emphysema without collateral ventilation results in clinically meaningful benefits of improved lung function, exercise tolerance, and quality of life. Given the very limited treatment options available for this patient population, EBV therapy should be considered in these patients.”
- Prospective randomized controlled trial
- Homogeneous emphysema with little or no collateral ventilation
- Clinically meaningful benefits in:
- Lung function
- Exercise tolerance
- Quality of life
FEV1 Percent Change
from Baseline to 6 Months
US-EN-2234-v1
Published in The New England Journal of Medicine4
Endobronchial valve treatment in patients with emphysema and a proven absence of interlobar collateral ventilation provided a measurable clinical benefit, with significantly improved lung function, exercise capacity, and quality of life as compared with usual care.”
- Prospective randomized controlled trial
- First randomized study to use Chartis® System to pre-select candidates
- Emphysema with little or no collateral ventilation
- Statistically and clinically greater improvements than the control group for:
- Pulmonary function (FEV1 and FVC)
- Exercise capacity
- Quality of life
- One-year follow-up published in The American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine5
