Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of SaExten vena cava filter (VCF) system (ShenZhen KYD BioTech Co., Ltd., China) in prevention of pulmonary embolism (PE). This is a prospective, multicenter, randomized controlled, positive-controlled clinical trial, which will enroll 204 participants in total. Participants will undergo interventions with SaExten VCF System or Denali filter (C. R. BARD, Inc., USA).
Detailed description
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of SaExten vena cava filter (VCF) system in prevention of pulmonary embolism (PE). This is a prospective, multicenter, randomized controlled, positive-controlled clinical trial, which will enroll 204 participants in total, with 102 in each group. Participants will undergo interventions with SaExten VCF System or Denali filter, and be followed up to 12 months if the implantation is permanent, to evaluate the efficacy and safety of SaExten VCF System in prevention of PE.
Interventions
Subjects will undergo intervention, be implanted with a SaExten filter. The filter will be retrieved within 90 days or indwelled permanently, depending on the existence of thrombosis and the evaluation of the physician.
Subjects will undergo intervention, be implanted with a Denali filter. The filter will be retrieved within 90 days or indwelled permanently, depending on the existence of thrombosis and the evaluation of the physician.

Eligibility
Inclusion criteria

Patients with acute (≤14 days of onset) proximal (inferior lumen, iliac, femoral, popliteal vein) deep vein thrombosis (DVT), or at risk of pulmonary embolism (PE) caused by thrombus detoxification, with or without symptoms of pulmonary embolism; 4. People at risk of pulmonary embolism (PE) meet at least one of the following conditions: * Patients with acute DVT who plan to undergo catheter-directed thrombolysis (CDT), percutaneous mechanical thrombectomy (PMT) or surgical thrombectomy; * Patients who have failed anticoagulant therapy, have recurrent PE and/or DVT, and have contraindications to anticoagulant therapy or are at serious risk of bleeding; * Floating thrombus in iliac, femoral vein or inferior vena cava; * Patients with high risk factors for acute DVT and PE who underwent abdominal, pelvic or lower limb surgery; * Patients with DVT who have already developed a large area of PE and are at risk of developing PE again; * DVT accompanied by serious heart and lung disease, pulmonary hypertension; * Severe injuries (such as hip fracture, etc.), accompanied by vascular endothelial injury, accompanied by blood hypercoagulability and anticoagulant therapy contraindications; 5. Those who can understand the purpose of the trial, cooperate with the follow-up, and sign the informed consent voluntarily.
Exclusion criteria

Persons considered by the investigator to be unsuitable for participation in this clinical trial.
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Clinical success rate of IVCF implantation | 6 months | Clinical success requires the following three factors: * No clinical symptomatic pulmonary embolism occurred within 6 months after long-term filter implantation, which was confirmed by CT pulmonary angiography (CTPA); No clinical pulmonary embolism occurred between the time of filter implantation and the time of filter retrieval, which was confirmed by pulmonary angiography. * The IVCF was successfully implanted with satisfactory shape and position; * No filter fracture, no displacement over 20 mm , no inclination (\> 15°) during implantation/retrieval, no IVC penetration, no thrombosis of the IVC, and no implant-related or operation-related deaths. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Clinical success rate of IVCF retrieval | 90 days | Clinical success of filter recovery is defined as: The filter was successfully and completely removed from patients attempting to retrieve the filter within 90 days of filter implantation, without complications requiring clinical intervention. |
| Technical success rate of IVCF retrieval | 90 days | Successful filter retrieval is defined as: the filter was successfully and completely removed in patients who attempted to retrieve the filter within 90 days after implantation, and no complications associated with the filter occured during the operation. |
| Evaluation of operation performance of filter and transporting system | 90 days | Technical success of the filter and transporting system is defined as: during the operation, the marking and development of the transporting system were good, the filter was transported to the expected position of the vena cava smoothly, the preloaded filter was released completely, and all parts of the transporting system were removed from the body smoothly without falling off or breaking. |
| The combined incidence of filter displacement over 20 mm, fracture, tilt (> 15°) and IVC penetration within 6 months after implantation | 6 months | These measures are used to describe the incidences of filter post-implantation. |
| Technical success rate of IVCF implantation | 1 day | Successful filter implantation is defined as: The filter was successfully implanted with satisfactory shape and position, and no complications associated with the filter occurred during the operation procedure. |
| The incidence of new or aggravated deep vein thrombosis within 6 months after implantation | 6 months | It is used to describe the incidence of DVT post-implantation. |
| The incidence of compound clinical events of pulmonary embolism, IVC thrombosis, death, and recurrent deep venous thrombosis of lower limbs at 30 days, 3 months, and 6 months after vena cava filter implantation | 30 days, 3 months, and 6 months | These measures are used to describe the incidence of PE, IVC thrombosis, death, and and recurrent DVT post-implantation. |
| The number of days from implantation to retrieval (for patients whose filters have been retrieved) | 90 days | It is used to describe the time from IVC filter implantation to retrieval. |
| Incidence of pulmonary embolism within 6 months after implantation. | 6 months | It is used to describe the incidence of PE post-implantation. |
