Kidney Stone, Renal Stones, Urolithiasis

Brief summary

The purpose of the study is to assess safety and efficacy of a novel steerable ureteral catheter system, the CVAC System for the treatment of urinary stones.

Interventions

DEVICESteerable Ureteroscopic Renal Evacuation (SURE) with the CVAC System

The CVAC Aspiration System is a sterile, single use, steerable ureteral catheter system with integrated vision, irrigation and aspiration for the treatment and removal of urinary stones (kidney stones, fragments, and dust).

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Stone Clearance (% Reduction in Stone Volume)30 DaysThe percent reduction (\[Baseline stone volume- 30-Day stone volume\] / Baseline stone volume) in stone volume following intervention, observed on non-contrast CT (NCCT) (2.0mm slice thickness). A positive result indicates a decrease in stone volume removed during the procedure; a negative value indicates an increase in stone volume following the procedure.
Residual Stone Volume (RSV)30 DaysA continuous quantitative measure of remaining stone volume following intervention, observed on non-contrast CT (NCCT) (2.0mm slice thickness).
Stone Free Rate (SFR) - Zero Fragments30 DaysWhere stone free status is defined as zero residual fragments at 30 days observed on non-contrast CT (NCCT) (2.0mm slice thickness). SFR is calculated by determining the number of kidneys in each treatment arm with a stone free status of zero fragments and dividing that by the total number of kidneys treated in the respective treatment arm.
