Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The objective of this registry is to collect and evaluate various clinical effectiveness parameters in patients with transplanted donor lung that were preserved and transported within the LUNGguard system, as well as retrospective standard of care patients

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

GUARDIAN-Lung is a post-market, observational registry of adult and pediatric lung transplant recipient patients whose donor lungs was preserved and transported within the LUNGguard. The data is being collected retrospectively from medical records of patients already transplanted before the initiation of the registry and any new patients who meet the eligibility criteria.

About 500 male and female subjects (including pediatric patients) meeting the study inclusion and exclusion criteria will be enrolled into the study at about 5 clinical sites.

Candidates that fit the eligibility criteria and have had their donor lungs transported with a Paragonix product or a standard of care method can be enrolled. The baseline characteristics and outcomes of the two groups will be compared.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

LungGuard patients

Patients whose donor lung(s) was transported with the LungGuard device.

LungGuard

Intervention Type DEVICE

The LUNGguard is an FDA cleared and is a CE-marked medical device intended to be used for the static hypothermic preservation of lungs during transportation and eventual transplantation into a recipient using cold storage solutions indicated for use with the lungs. The intended organ storage time for the LUNGguard is up to 8 hours.

Standard Transport Patients

Patients whose donor lung(s) was transported with a method other than the LungGuard

No interventions assigned to this group

BAROGuard Patients

Patients whose donor lung(s) was transported with the BAROGuard device.

BAROGuard

Intervention Type DEVICE

The BAROguard (the "System") is ultraportable hypothermic preservation and transport system intended for use with donor lungs. BAROguard is a legally marketed, FDA cleared medical device in the United States. The intended organ storage time for BAROguard™ is up to 8 hours.
