CLEAR Trial Summary

This trial is testing whether a new type of endoscopy, which uses a laser to get a more detailed view of the lungs, can improve the accuracy of biopsies performed with a robot.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 22 years old who need a lung nodule biopsy and are fit enough for bronchoscopy under anesthesia. They must not have bleeding disorders, be on certain blood thinners, or have devices like pacemakers that could interfere with the procedure. Pregnant or nursing women and those with known allergies to fluorescein sodium can't participate.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests if using needle-based confocal laser endomicroscopy (nCLE) can make biopsies of lung nodules more accurate when done with robotic-assisted bronchoscopy (RANB) using the Monarch® Endoscopy Platform.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include discomfort from the biopsy procedure, risks associated with general anesthesia, allergic reactions to fluorescein sodium used in nCLE, and possible complications from bronchoscopy such as bleeding or infection.
