Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
This study involves evaluating a procedure in which the study device, the HALO90 Ablation catheter, is used to heat a thin layer of tissue lining the rectum using radiofrequency (RF) energy in subjects suffering from radiation proctitis (acute inflammation of the inner lining of the rectum caused by the side effects of radiation treatments that can lead to bleeding). In medical procedures, the RF energy used with this device, has been historically used in shrinking or removing soft-tissue, for surgical cutting, and for stopping bleeding. The device is cleared by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for use in coagulation (to assit with stoping bleeding and clotting of blood) of tissue within the digestive tract. The device has been used in areas outside the esophagus (inner lining of the throat), including the rectum to treat radiation proctitis. The stoppage of bleeding of radiation proctitis, using the HALO device, may be one method to control the bleeding. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness and record the results of treatment of radiation proctitis using the HALO device.
