Clinical Trial Summary

Patients with severe emphysema have limited options for treatment. Current treatments include lung transplant, lung volume reduction surgery or endobronchial lung volume reduction using valves or coils. These options are only available for a small and selected group of patients. The Free Flow Medical Lung Tensioning Device System (LTD) is thought to be the next generation endobronchial treatment for patients with severe emphysema designed to address this unmet need. The LTD is designed to compress the areas of lung parenchyma most damaged by emphysema and to tension surrounding tissue to help restore lung elastic recoil in a similar manner to the lung volume reduction coils.
