STUDY DEVICE 
The Bashir™ Endovascular Catheter is a device intended for the localized 
infusion of therapeutic agents into the pulmonary artery and peripheral 
vasculature. 
THROMBOLYTIC 
ADMINISTRATION 
Pulse Sprays: 
r-tPA 2mg in 20cc 0.9% NaCl divided into two (2) 10cc syringes to administer 
in two (2) pulse sprays, 10cc each, through the basket infusion port with 10cc 
syringes.  
Unilateral PE: 2mg total in 20cc administered in two (2) 10cc syringes. 
Bilateral PE: 4 mg total in 40cc administered in two (2) 10cc syringes into each 
PA for a total of four (4) syringes, two (2) into each PA. 
Infusion:  
Unilateral PE: r-tPA 10mg in 750cc 0.9% NaCl infused at 1.27mg/hr at an 
infusion rate of 95cc/hr, through the Bashir™ Endovascular Catheter until 
complete. Total r-tPA dose (pulse spray and infusion) is 12.0mg. 
Bilateral PE: r-tPA 5mg in 500cc 0.9% NaCl infused at 0.65mg/hr at an infusion 
rate of 65cc/hr bilaterally through each Bashir™ Endovascular Catheter, until 
complete for a total r-tPA dose of 1.3mg/hr, 0.65mg per hour through each 
catheter. Total r-tPA dose (pulse spray and infusion) is 14.0mg. 
ANTICOAGULANT 
DOSAGE AND 
ADMINISTRATION 
Pre-procedure: Unfractionated heparin will be administered IV to prolong the 
aPTT pre-procedure (suggested range 60-80 seconds). 
Note: Use of enoxaparin (Lovenox®) is permitted pre-procedure for the treatment 
of PE. If Lovenox is given, then catheter directed thrombolysis procedure is to 
start no sooner than 12 hours after the last Lovenox dose was administered. 
Procedure:  Heparin infusion will be discontinued upon arrival in the IR/Cath lab.  
ACT will be monitored in IR/Cath Lab and heparin boluses administered to 
achieve ACT ≥ 200 seconds. 
During r-tPA Infusion: Heparin infusion will be restarted post-procedure and 
administered through the side arm of each sheath to prolong the aPTT (suggested 
range 40-60 seconds).  
Post r-tPA Infusion: Upon completion of r-tPA infusion, maintain patency 
through the BEC by replacing r-tPA with heparinized saline TKO using the 
infusion pump.  Starting 45 minutes (± 15 minutes) after the r-tPA completion, 
administer Lovenox 1mg/kg sub-Q every 12 hours (±30 minutes) through the 
completion of the 48-hour CTA.

 1.0 PROTOCOL SYNOPSIS (CONTINUED) 
POPULATION 
Patients 18 years of age or older who present with symptoms of acute submassive 
PE within 14 days of onset of symptoms will be considered for this study.  
STUDY DESIGN 
Prospective, non-randomized, multi-center study. 
STUDY 
OBJECTIVE 
Assess the safety and feasibility of the Bashir™ Endovascular Catheter for the 
administration of low dose thrombolytic for acute submassive pulmonary 
embolism. 
SAMPLE SIZE 
Up to ten (10) subjects will be enrolled and treated. 
SITES 
Up to five (5) sites will be qualified to participate in this study. 
PRIMARY 
ENDPOINTS 
1.  Safety: Major bleeding, as defined by International Society of Thrombosis and 
Hemostasis (ISTH), within 72 hours of initiation of r-tPA administration.  
Bleeding criteria are as follows: Major Bleeding in Non-Surgical Patients 
a. Fatal bleeding; and/or  
b. Symptomatic bleeding in a critical area or organ, such as intracranial, 
intraspinal, intraocular, retroperitoneal, intraarticular or pericardial, or 
intramuscular with compartment syndrome; and/or 
c. Bleeding causing a fall in hemoglobin level of 2 g/dL (1.24 mmol/L) or 
more or leading to transfusion of two or more units of whole blood or red 
cells. 
2. Feasibility: Device success defined as the ability to use the Bashir™ 
Endovascular Catheter as described in this protocol. 
SECONDARY 
ENDPOINTS 
1. All-cause mortality at hospital discharge through 30-day follow-up. 
2. SAEs through 30-day follow-up. 
3. Anticipated (non-serious) adverse events (AEs) through 30-day follow-up. 
4. Recurrent PE through 30-day follow-up.  
5. Clinically Relevant Non-Major bleeding: Any sign or symptom of 
hemorrhage (e.g. more bleeding than would be expected for a clinical 
circumstance, including bleeding found by imaging alone) that does not fit 
the criteria for the ISTH definition of major bleeding but does meet at least 
one of the following criteria:  
a. Requiring medical intervention by a healthcare professional.  
b. Leading to hospitalization or increased level of care.  
c. Prompting a face to face (i.e., not just a telephone or electronic 
communication) evaluation.  
6. Technical procedural complications. 
7. RV/LV end diastolic diameter ratio at 24 hours after completion of r-tPA 
infusion compared to baseline, by echocardiogram.  
8. RV/LV diameter ratio at 48 hours after completion of r-tPA infusion, by 
contrast-enhanced chest CTA compared to baseline.

To deﬁne the CT obstruction index, the arterial tree of each lung is regarded 
as having 10 segmental arteries (3 to the upper lobes, 2 to the middle lobe and 
the lingula, and 5 to the lower lobes).   The presence of embolus in a 
segmental artery is scored 1 point, and emboli in the most proximal arterial 
level are scored a value equal to the number of segmental arteries arising 
distally. To provide additional information about the residual perfusion distal 
to the embolus, a weighting factor is assigned to each value, depending on the 
degree of vascular obstruction.  This factor is equal to zero, when no thrombus 
is observed; 1, when partially occlusive thrombus is observed; or 2, with total 
occlusion. Thus, the maximal CT obstruction index is 40 per patient.22

Cardiac troponins are the most sensitive and the most specific biochemical

acute pericarditis, myocarditis, acute PE, severe cardiac failure, sepsis and 
acute renal failure as well as in myocardial infarction.  In acute PE, the 
mechanic load of the right ventricle is increased because of the increased 
pulmonary vascular resistance following pulmonary artery obstruction. That 
can lead to acute right ventricular dilatation. The dilatation and hypokinesia 
of the right ventricle may cause severe myocardial ischemia and increase the 
troponin levels. Increased serum cTnI levels support the diagnosis of severe 
PE.

4.0 BACKGROUND AND RATIONALE 
4.1 Clinical Problem 
Acute venous thromboembolism (VTE) includes deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and acute 
pulmonary embolism (PE). PE occurs when a deep vein thrombus breaks loose and embolizes 
to the pulmonary artery. Pulmonary embolism is the third leading cause of cardiovascular death 
after myocardial infarction and stroke and is a major global health problem.1,2    
 
Raskob et al (2014) conducted a literature search and review and found that there is a strong and 
consistent association between an increase in incidence of VTE and increasing age. They found 
the annual incidence increased from between 2 and 7 per 1,000 population for those 79 and 
younger to between 3 and 12 per 1,000 population for those aged 80 and older.  This finding has 
major implications for the treatment of the elderly in the US healthcare system.2 It is important 
to note that 60 percent of the VTE events are associated with hospitalization.3 The number of 
deaths from VTE in the USA has previously been reported to be approximately 300,000 
annually.3,4 Clinically, patients may present with DVT or PE, or both.  With many of the known 
risk factors, advanced age, immobility, surgery, obesity, increasing in our society, this number 
only continues to grow.  Because there is no national surveillance program for VTE, the precise 
number with VTE of all types is unknown.5,6 
 
Patients who present with PE may be classified into low risk, intermediate risk (submassive) or 
high risk (massive) PE. Both massive and submassive PE cause right ventricular (RV) 
dysfunction, while massive PE in addition causes systemic hypotension.  Typical diagnostic 
studies include contrast enhanced computerized tomography (CT) to diagnose the PE, 
echocardiography to assess right and left ventricular function, and cardiac biomarkers, such as 
troponin I, and BNP to assess the degree of myocardial ischemia/strain associated with the PE.  
Patients categorized as having a low-risk PE do not have evidence of hemodynamic compromise 
or RV dysfunction.  Low risk PE patients are not included in this study for obvious reasons.7 
4.2 Current Treatment Options   
Anticoagulant therapies are administered to symptomatic patients while their work-ups are 
being completed for a definitive diagnosis of massive or submassive PE.  For the treatment of 
massive and submassive PE, both systemic administration and catheter-directed administration 
of thrombolytic therapies have been utilized.8-10 However, systemic administration of 
thrombolytics carries a prohibitively high risk of bleeding: Up to 7% intracranial bleeds and up 
to 20% major bleeding rates; hence the attraction of delivering thrombolytics in much lower 
dosage directly into the clot to treat this potentially life-threatening condition.11   
Devices for percutaneous treatment of patients in whom systemic thrombolytic therapy is 
absolutely contraindicated have been developed and utilized.   The percutaneous devices include 
manual thrombus fragmentation using a balloon dilatation catheter or a pigtail (off-the shelf 
technologies). More recently, catheters specifically created for thrombus fragmentation that 
produce greater fragmentation of the clot compared to off-the-shelf technologies mentioned

previously, without aspirating the clot; aspiration or suction thrombectomy devices to decrease 
thrombus burden; rheolytic thrombectomy where a saline jet is directed into the clot and the clot 
and saline are aspirated, have been introduced.7-10,12-14  However, there are also hazards 
associated with rapid clot fragmentation including hemodynamic collapse   due to the distal 
embolization of thrombus and release of vasoactive substances.     
Over the past several years a device received 510(k) clearance for its ultrasound-facilitated, 
catheter directed low-dose fibrinolysis using r-tPA (EKOS, Bothell WA). With this technology, 
the EKOS ultrasound device was used to deliver t-PA in patients with massive and submassive 
PE at 1mg/hour over 24 hours (unilateral PE), and 2mg/hour over 12 hours (bilateral PE). This 
treatment methodology achieved an absolute reduction in RV:LV ratio of 0.42 (±0.36), the mean 
baseline was 1.55 (±0.39) and at 48 hours 1.13 (±0.2).15,17  
While it is critical to reduce RV/LV ratio, it is of great importance to both short-term and long-
term patient outcomes to decrease the thrombus burden as much as is feasible.  Even a small 
reduction in the clot burden can translate into a marked improvement in RV function and 
improve acute survival. However, much more effective reduction in the residual clot burden is 
required to reduce the long-term complications of PE, including disabling post-PE syndrome 
and chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH).7   
4.3 
Study Rationale 
While the medical community continues to focus on prevention of VTE, half of all VTE patients 
have unprovoked VTE. Therefore, the treatment options for patients who present with DVT 
and/or acute PE must continue to evolve to increase efficacy, decrease side effects, limit long-
term complications, and provide an improved quality of life for these patients. This study is 
focused on the treatment of patients with acute submassive PE with an interventional device 
designed to increase the exposure of the thrombus burden to endogenous and exogenous 
thrombolytics, thus this increased exposure has the potential to greatly decrease the thrombus 
burden.  
 
The Bashir™ Endovascular Catheter has been designed to administer therapeutic agents in the 
peripheral vasculature.  Because of the unique design of the catheter, with its six expandable 
infusion limbs, the Bashir™ Endovascular Catheter has the ability to: 1. Create a much larger 
central channel for blood flow, thereby utilizing the body’s own endogenous fibrinolytic agents 
to lyse the clot, and 2. Greatly enhance the radial dispersion of a catheter-administered 
thrombolytic agent throughout the thrombus.  Expansion of the multiple arms of the basket in 
the infusion catheter causes fissuring of the clot. The net result is that a greater surface area of 
clot is exposed to both endogenous and exogenously administered lytic agents, thereby 
promoting clot dissolution. 
 
This first-in-man study will utilize the Bashir™ Endovascular Catheter to administer catheter 
directed thrombolysis in patients with submassive PE who have consented and meet all 
eligibility criteria.  The Bashir™ catheter represents a new methodology for localized catheter-
based delivery of thrombolytics. The thrombolytic to be used in this study is r-tPA (Genentech

Corporation, South San Francisco, USA).16 The dosing of the thrombolytic in the past has been 
much greater than what is proposed in this study.  The SEATTLE II study administered a total 
of 24 mg of r-tPA over 12 hours for bilateral PE and 24mg over 24 hours for unilateral PE.  The 
incidence of major bleeding in the SEATTLE II study was 10 percent.17 The design of the Bashir 
Endovascular Catheter with the multiple infusion limbs creating a basket-like formation when 
expanded, provides a greater surface area in the thrombus for the endogenous and exogenous 
thrombolytics to take effect, as described above.  
 
Because of the rationale stated previously, a reduced dose of thrombolytic can be administered 
over a reduced period of time due to an increased exposure of the clot to endogenous and 
exogenous thrombolytics for clot dissolution.  The Optalyse study, using the EKOS catheter, 
presented at ISET, February 6, 2018, was conducted to assess the outcomes with lower dose r-
tPA administration for the treatment of acute submassive PE. Four groups were administered 
lower doses of r-tPA over a shorter period of time.  While each group showed a statistically 
significant reduction in RV/LV ratio at 48 hours post-procedure, the reduction in residual clot 
burden was noticeably lower (6%) in patients treated with the smallest dose of r- tPA for the 
shortest time period (4/8 mg r-tPA over 2 hours) compared to those treated with the highest dose 
for the longest duration (26% reduction in clot burden; 12/24 mg r-tPA over 6 hours). This 
illustrates the discordance between reduction in RV/LV diameter ratio and reduction in clot 
burden. It is much easier to achieve the former than the latter with low doses of r-tPA for shorter 
periods of time. There is clearly also a lot of room for improvement if 74% of the clot burden 
still remains after the highest dose of infusion in the OPTALYSE study.18  
 
We hypothesize that the dose of r-tPA may be reduced using the Bashir™ Endovascular Catheter 
from what was administered in the SEATTLE II study, i.e. 24mg over 12 hours (bilateral PE) 
or 24 hours (unilateral PE), because of its unique features described previously.17 We therefore 
propose to utilize the following regimen: r-tPA 2mg in 20 cc administered in 1mg and 10cc 
increments x 2 into the PA for a total of 2 pulse sprays into the infusion basket via its infusion 
port on the handle, using a syringe, followed by a 10mg infusion at  1.27mg per hour until 
complete for unilateral PE, and 5mg infusion into each pulmonary artery for bilateral PE, at 
0.65mg/hour until complete for a total dose of 1.3mg/hour for bilateral PE.  This is a total of 12 
mg over approximately 8 hours (pulse spray 1mg x 2 sprays = 2mg plus infusion at 1.27mg/hour 
x 7.87 hours (approximately 8 hours = 12mg) for unilateral PE. For bilateral PE, we propose to 
administer the same pulse spray and one-half of the infusion dose into each PA to total the 
unilateral infusion dose, for a total of 14mg administered including the pulse sprays and the 
infusions. This is a substantially lower dose and a shorter duration of treatment compared to 
SEATTLE II for the treatment of PE in a similar patient cohort.  Additionally, an efficacy study 
stopping rule has been established for this study based on the reduction in RV:LV diameter ratio 
observed in the SEATTLE II study (0.42-0.36).  The minimal reduction of 0.06 in SEATTLE II 
formed the basis for the efficacy study stopping rule for this study.  If a reduction is less than 
0.06 (refer to Section 18.3) in the first three patients, the study will be paused to re-evaluate the 
r-tPA dosage and administration.

5.0 INVESTIGATIONAL DEVICE 
The Bashir™ Endovascular Catheter is a device intended for the localized infusion of therapeutic agents 
into the pulmonary artery and peripheral vasculature. The distal infusion segment of the device contains 
an expandable and retractable radial array of conduits with multiple laser drilled orifices used for the 
delivery of the therapeutic agents at multiple cross-sectional points of the target vessel location. The 
infusion segment can be expanded and collapsed by the actuator (slider) located on the handle at the 
proximal end of the device. The infusion line connector is also located on the handle.19

7.0 METHODOLOGY 
7.1 
Pre-Procedure Testing Within 48 Hours Pre-Procedure 
7.1.1 
Laboratory Tests 
1. CMP, CBC, Cardiac Biomarkers Troponin I and BNP – These tests will 
be drawn within 48 hours pre-procedure. 
 
2. aPTT – Drawn within 48 hours pre-procedure. Unfractionated heparin will 
be infused to prolong the aPTT (suggested range is 60-80 seconds) prior to 
the administration of r-tPA.  The institution is to follow the standard of care 
for the administration of heparin through the completion of the r-tPA 
infusion and the monitoring of aPTT in addition to the aPTTs measured at 
certain time points required by this protocol. 
 
3. International Normalized Ratio (INR) – INR will be drawn within 48 
hours pre-procedure for patients who are on Coumadin and must be ≤ 1.5 
to be eligible for enrollment.  Patients who are on Coumadin and have an 
INR ≤ 1.5 who are in the study the coumadin will be discontinued during 
the heparin infusion and the r-tPA infusion and can be restarted prior to 
discharge.   
 
4. Fibrinogen – Fibrinogen levels are required to be checked within 48 hours 
prior to the procedure.  The assay method must be recorded (e.g. Clauss, 
PT-derived fibrinogen assay, immunological, gravimetric, other) 
7.1.2 
Imaging 
1. Contrast Enhanced CTA of Chest – A contrast enhanced CTA of chest 
will be performed within 48 hours pre-procedure.  The contrast enhanced 
chest CTA is used to determine the pre-procedure Modified Miller Index 
Score within 48 hours prior to the procedure. CT will be sent to the core lab 
for analysis. 
 
2. Lower Extremity Venous DUS – A duplex ultrasound is required pre-
procedure to verify patency of the common femoral vein (CFV) for femoral 
access. The right CFV or the left CFV may be used for access, whichever 
is patent. If both of the CFVs are not patent, an internal jugular (IJ) vein 
may be used for access. IJ access may also be used if that is the operator’s 
preference. 
 
3. Echocardiogram – The echocardiogram will be done to determine the pre-
procedure RV/LV end-diastolic diameter ratio. A core lab protocol will be 
followed for data acquisition. The echocardiogram will be sent to the core 
lab for analyses.

Assessments 
1. Physical Examination – The physician will perform a physical exam 
within 48 hours prior to the procedure to ensure the subject meets eligibility 
criteria. 
 
2. RV/LV Diameter Ratio – The RV/LV ratio will be measured within 48 
hours pre-procedure by contrast enhanced chest CTA to ensure the subject 
meets the eligibility criteria of an axial RV/LV ratio ≥ 0.9.  RV/LV ratio is 
required to be assessed by contrast enhanced chest CTA to determine 
eligibility. The site determines eligibility, and an independent core lab 
protocol will be followed for data acquisition. Both the contrast enhanced 
chest CTA and echocardiogram will be sent to the core lab for analysis. 
 
3. 12-Lead Electrocardiogram (ECG) – A 12-lead ECG will be performed 
prior to the procedure. 
7.1.4 
Anticoagulation 
Unfractionated heparin is required to be used for anticoagulation and is to be 
started pre-procedure by intravenous administration to prolong the aPTT 
(suggested range is 60-80 seconds) unless the patient has received Lovenox.  
The institution is to follow the standard of care for the administration of heparin 
and the monitoring of aPTT in addition to the aPTTs measured at certain time 
points required by this protocol. Stop the heparin administration at the 
completion of the r-tPA infusion. The final aPTT should be measured according 
to standard of care.  
7.1.5 
Patients Receiving Lovenox for Treatment of Pulmonary Embolism 
Lovenox: Use of Lovenox is permitted pre-procedure for the treatment of PE if 
it is the standard of care. If Lovenox is administered to a potential study subject, 
then catheter directed thrombolysis procedure is to start no sooner than 12 hours 
from the last Lovenox dose. 
 
During the CDT procedure in the IR suite/Cath lab ACTs will be checked and 
heparin bolus given to achieve ACT ≥ 200 seconds. 
 
After completion of the CDT procedure, a heparin drip will be started prior to 
leaving the IR suite/Cath lab to maintain therapeutic dose through completion 
of the r-tPA infusion.  
7.1.6 
Data Collection 
The following data will be collected and documented in the CRF in addition to 
the required pre-procedure testing. 
1. Informed Consent – required for all study subjects prior to any testing that 
is not the standard of care.

r-tPA infusion via the basket infusion port of the BEC. 
g. Bilateral PE: Repeat steps a-f in contralateral pulmonary artery for 
bilateral PE. 
h. Once pulse sprays are complete, the basket(s) should remain expanded. 
i. 
As soon as the pulse sprays are administered, immediately re-start the 
r-tPA infusion via the basket infusion port of the BEC in accordance 
with Table 2. Refer to Section 9.3.2 and Table 2 for r-tPA infusion 
instructions.   
j. 
Remove the guidewire(s) from the wire lumen(s). 
k. Ensure the BEC(s) are adequately flushed.  Attach the flushed pressure 
transducer tubing to the wire lumen of the BEC(s).  Measure the 
systolic PA, diastolic PA, and mean PA pressures in each PA with a 
pulmonary embolism from the tip of the BEC through the guidewire 
lumen at the back of the BEC handle. Print the PA waveform tracings 
and mark the tracings where the systolic PA, diastolic PA, and mean 
PA pressures are interpreted and documented.  
l. 
If the waveform is dampened, adequately flush the wire lumen.  If the 
waveform is still dampened after it is flushed, print the dampened 
waveform on paper, and retain the waveform with the source 
documentation for this study. Measure the systolic PA, diastolic PA, 
and mean PA pressures in each PA with a pulmonary embolism on the 
tracing.  If the waveform becomes phasic prior to leaving the lab, print 
the waveform, mark on the waveform where the systolic PA, diastolic 
PA, and mean PA pressures are interpreted and the time the waveform 
became phasic. Retain the printout with the source documentation for 
this study.  
9.3.2 
Part 2 – r-tPA Infusion and Anticoagulation – Prior to Departing the IR 
suite/Cath lab r-tPA Infusion 
Upon completion of the Pulse Sprays, with the basket re-expanded and catheter 
securely in place, begin r-tPA solution infusion(s), as soon as possible 
(immediately following the pulse sprays).   
1. For unilateral PE: The total r-tPA is 10mg at 1.27mg/hr. Using an IV 
pump at 95cc/hour, infuse the 750cc of 0.9% NaCl with the 10mg r-tPA at 
1.27mg/hr until infusion is complete (approximately 8 hours). 
2. For bilateral PE: The total r-tPA dose is 10mg at 1.30mg/hr. Using two 
(2) IV pumps at 65cc/hour, infuse the 500cc of 0.9% NaCl x 2 
simultaneously with the 5mg r-tPA at 0.65mg/hr for each PE for a total of 
1.3mg/hour until complete (approximately 8 hours).  
3. Anticoagulation: Re-start low dose heparin infusion into each sheath to 
prolong the aPTT (suggested range 40 to 60 seconds) prior to leaving the

IR suite/Cath lab to maintain therapeutic dose through completion of the 
48-hour CT scan. 
 
The institution is to follow the standard of care for the administration of 
heparin and the monitoring of aPTT in addition to the aPTTs measured at 
certain time points required by this protocol. 
4. Maintaining Patency Through the Central Lumen of the BEC(s): 
Remove the wire from the central lumen of the BEC and attach a 3-way 
stopcock and flush with heparinized saline to maintain patency in the 
central lumen of the BEC (both BECs if bilateral PEs) when transferring to 
ICU.  
 
If it is standard of care in the IR suite/Cath lab to attach pressure tubing 
prior to transfer to the ICU for continuous PA pressure monitoring in the 
ICU, that may be done in lieu of heparinized flush in a syringe to maintain 
patency when transferring from the IR suite/Cath lab to the ICU.  The 
central lumen of the BEC will be used for continuous monitoring of the PA 
pressures in the ICU.  Hospital standard protocol will be used to maintain 
patency of the central lumen and to perform continuous pressure 
monitoring through the BEC in the ICU.  
 
For example, heparinized saline to a pressure bag and pressure monitor 
tubing connected to the bedside monitor to transduce pressure from the 
central lumen of the BEC may be performed; if there are two BECs in place 
for bilateral PEs, the central lumen of both BECs require pressure tubing 
for continuous pressure monitoring and kept open with standard pressure 
tubing transduced to the bedside monitor using heparinized saline in a 
pressure bag to keep the line patent and for continuous PA pressure 
monitoring and SvO2 draws.

the r-tPA mixture until the infusion is complete.  
b. Bilateral PE: Infusion rate is to be maintained at 0.65mg/hour through each 
catheter, for a total of 1.3mg/hour infusing into the patient (0.65mg/hour through 
each BEC).  This is a rate of 65cc/hour per infusion for a total of 130cc/hour total 
infusing through two catheters into the patient. Infuse the r-tPA mixture until the 
infusion is complete  
2. Laboratory Tests: Four (4) hours (±1 hour) after initiation of heparin infusion started 
in the IR suite/Cath lab measure: 
a. CBC 
b. aPTT 
3. Hemodynamic Readings: Record the following pressures in the ICU beginning with 
the 1st reading two (2) hours (±30 minutes) after the initiation of the r-tPA infusion and 
then every thirty (30) minutes (±15 minutes) thereafter through the central lumen of the 
BEC.  If a waveform, or both waveforms (if bilateral) appear dampened, verify each 
BEC pressure transducer is set up properly when study subject arrives in ICU.  If the 
waveform continues to be dampened, document the date and time when the waveform 
becomes phasic and print the waveform from the monitor.  Mark on the waveform where 
the systolic PA, diastolic PA, and mean PA pressures are read and retain with the source 
documentation for this study.  Please note that when the waveform becomes phasic, it 
must be documented even if it outside of the “every 30 minutes” scheduled readings. 
This is so the length of time from the 1st pulse spray (in the Cath/IR lab) to when the

clot dissolves in each PA with a pulmonary embolism will be known.   Please note that 
printouts are not required for every reading, only when the dampened waveform 
becomes phasic, if dampened when subject arrives in the ICU. These readings are 
required through the completion of r-tPA infusion: 
a. PAS / PAD / PA Mean Pressures  
b. SpO2 – Arterial Oxygen Saturation (pulse oximeter O2 saturation)  
4. Mixed Venous Oxygen Saturation (SvO2): Record every two (2) hours (±30 minutes) 
in the ICU starting after the initiation of the r-tPA infusion. These readings are required 
through the completion of r-tPA infusion: 
a. SvO2 – Mixed Venous Oxygen Saturations (Sample is from tip of the BEC, 
drawn from the central lumen of the BEC at the end of the handle. If bilateral, 
either BEC is acceptable for drawing the SvO2.) 
5. Anticoagulation – Intensive Care Unit During r-tPA Infusion: Heparin drip should 
be administered until the r-tPA infusion is complete (approximately 8 hours).  
6. Anti-coagulation Immediately Post-rtPA Infusion:  Once the r-tPA infusion is 
complete, turn off the heparin gtt. Starting 45 minutes (±15 minutes) after the r-tPA 
completion, administer Lovenox 1mg/kg sub-Q every 12 hours (±30 minutes) through 
the completion of the 48-hour CTA. 
7. Physical Exam: A physical exam is required to be performed at the completion of the 
r-tPA infusion.  
8. Stopping r-tPA Infusion in ICU at the End of 8 Hours:  Upon completion of r-tPA 
infusion, maintain patency through the BEC by replacing r-tPA with heparinized saline 
using the infusion pump, at TKO, and transport to IR suite/Cath lab to remove BEC. 
Heparinized saline should infuse via infusion pump through the basket infusion port 
until subject arrives at the IR suite/Cath lab for catheter removal. 
10.2 Return to The IR suite/Cath lab at The Completion of Infusion 
At the end of the infusion the patient returns to the IR suite/Cath lab within eight (8) hours 
(+8 hours) of the completion of the r-tPA infusion for removal of the BEC(s) and final 
hemodynamic measurements.  
 
1. Under fluoroscopy, collapse the basket(s) of the BEC. 
2. Remove the BEC by pulling the catheter(s) carefully into the sheath(s) and then 
removing them from the body. 
3. Back bleed or aspirate the sheath(s) and flush with heparinized saline to prevent clot 
formation. 
4. Catheter for Hemodynamic Readings and Blood Draws:   Insert a Swan-Ganz or 
angled pigtail catheter through the sheath and record the following. 
 
a. Hemodynamic Readings 
i. SvO2 – Mixed Venous Oxygen Saturations  
ii. SpO2 – Arterial Oxygen Saturation (pulse oximeter) 
iii. PA Pressures:  PAS / PAD / PA Mean

ANTICIPATED ADVERSE EVENTS  
The following events are anticipated adverse events in subjects who are treated for pulmonary 
embolism. An adverse event is any untoward medical occurrence associated with the use of a 
drug in humans, whether or not considered drug related (21 CFR 312.32(a)). 
Suspected adverse reaction means any adverse event for which there is a reasonable possibility 
that the drug caused the adverse event. For the purposes of IND safety reporting, ‘reasonable 
possibility’ means there is evidence to suggest a causal relationship between the drug and the 
adverse event. A suspected adverse reaction implies a lesser degree of certainty about causality 
than adverse reaction, which means any adverse event caused by a drug. A suspected adverse 
reaction is an adverse event where there is a reasonable possibility the drug caused the adverse 
event. The sponsor is responsible for making the causality.

ADVERSE EVENT REPORTING 
13.1 
Serious Adverse Events and Serious Suspected Adverse Reactions 
Serious adverse events (SAE) or serious suspected adverse reaction (SUSAR) 
must be reported to the study manager within 24 hours of knowledge of the 
event.   
Serious adverse event or serious suspected adverse reaction:   An adverse event or 
suspected adverse reaction is considered "serious" if, in the view of either the 
investigator or sponsor, it results in any of the following outcomes:  
1. Death;  
2. A life-threatening adverse event; 
3. Inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization; 
4. A persistent or significant incapacity or substantial disruption of the ability to 
conduct normal life functions, or a congenital anomaly/birth defect;

5. Important medical events that may not result in death, be life-threatening, or require 
hospitalization may be considered serious when, based upon appropriate medical 
judgment, they may jeopardize the patient or subject and may require medical or 
surgical intervention to prevent one of the outcomes listed in this definition.   
The following event definitions, as defined in 21 CFR 312.32(a) will be reported 
as serious adverse events and the reporting requirements above must be 
followed.  
Life-threatening 
adverse 
event (or life-threatening 
suspected 
adverse 
reaction):  An adverse event or suspected adverse reaction is considered "life-
threatening" if, in the view of either the investigator or sponsor, its occurrence places 
the patient or subject at immediate risk of death. It does not include an adverse event or 
suspected adverse reaction that, had it occurred in a more severe form, might have 
caused death. 
13.2 
Unexpected Adverse Event or Unexpected Suspected Adverse Reaction 
The following event definitions, as defined in 21 CFR 312.32(a) will be reported 
as serious adverse events and the reporting requirements above must be 
followed.  
An Adverse Event or Suspected Adverse Reaction is considered "unexpected" if it is 
not listed in the investigator brochure or is not listed at the specificity or severity that 
has been observed; or, if an investigator brochure is not required or available, is not 
consistent with the risk information described in the general investigational plan or 
elsewhere in the current application, as amended.  
It is anticipated that no unexpected adverse reactions will occur as r-tPA is FDA 
approved for the treatment of pulmonary embolism.  The currently approved 
labeling requires 100mg of r-tPA to be administered intravenously over two (2) 
hours. This is 86mg more than the maximum dose required in this protocol 
administered over two (2) hours, not over approximately eight (8) hours as in 
this protocol.

Related 
The adverse event is clearly related to the investigational 
agent/procedure – i.e. an event that follows a reasonable 
temporal sequence from administration of the study intervention, 
follows a known or expected response pattern to the suspected 
intervention, that is confirmed by improvement on stopping and 
reappearance of the event on repeated exposure and that could 
not be reasonably explained by the known characteristics of the 
subject’s clinical state. 
Possibly 
Related 
An adverse event that follows a reasonable temporal sequence 
from administration of the study intervention follows a known or 
expected response pattern to the suspected intervention, but that 
could readily have been produced by a number of other factors. 
Not Related 
The adverse event is clearly not related to the investigational 
agent/procedure - i.e. another cause of the event is most 
plausible; and/or a clinically plausible temporal sequence is 
inconsistent with the onset of the event and the study intervention 
and/or a causal relationship is considered biologically 
implausible. 
13.5  
Investigator SAE Reporting Requirements 
An SAE occurring during the study or within 30 days of stopping the treatment must 
be reported to the study safety monitor. Any such SAE due to any cause, whether or 
not related to the study medication, must be reported within 24 hours of occurrence or 
when the investigator becomes aware of the event.  
The investigator must send a preliminary report of any such SAE to the project 
manager via the EDC system within 24 hours or if this is not possible via email or fax 
using an SAE Report Form, or at a minimum by telephone.   
The event must be recorded on the electronic SAE CRF page. Preliminary reports of 
SAEs must be followed by detailed descriptions, including clear pseudonymized 
photocopies of hospital case reports, consultant reports, autopsy reports, and other 
documents when requested and applicable. All photocopies should be redacted to 
remove patients’ personal details and annotated with the patient’s unique study 
identifiers. SAE reports must be made whether or not the investigator considers the 
event to be related to the investigational drug.  Appropriate remedial measures should 
be taken to treat the SAE, and the response to treatment should be recorded. Patients 
must be closely followed until sufficient information is obtained to indicate a return to 
normal status or until the event stabilizes at a level acceptable to the investigator.

STATISTICAL CONSIDERATIONS 
16.1 
Sample Size Justification 
The sample size selected (10) is considered to be a number sufficient to gather essential 
early information on the safety and performance of the device. The essential information 
is identified in the primary and secondary endpoints defined. The sample size will also 
assist in identifying additional meaningful data points, refine study endpoints, and 
improve study procedures before proceeding to a larger statistically powered pivotal 
trial.

16.2 
Data Analysis 
Data collected will be summarized using descriptive statistics. The study is not 
statistically powered for the analysis of primary endpoints.   Concomitant medications 
will be coded using the World Health Organization (WHO)-drug dictionary and AEs 
will be coded using the Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Affairs (MedDRA). 
16.3 
Data Entry 
 
Data will be entered into a 21 CFR 11 compliant database, electronic data capture 
(EDC) for this study.  The site staff shall be responsible for data entry. 
17.0 
DATA SAFETY MONITOR 
A data safety monitor will be selected to review the study conduct, feasibility data, and safety data and 
will adjudicate all types of adverse events reported in this study.  The independent DSM shall have the 
final adjudication for the events.  A data safety charter will be established and will be approved by the 
data safety monitor.  Qualifications for the DSM, at a minimum, shall include current experience with 
catheter directed thrombolysis for the treatment of massive and submassive pulmonary emboli, 
management of the patient post-treatment and extensive research experience. Adherence to the study 
stopping criteria in this protocol will also be included in the DSM meetings in addition to following the 
charter. 
18.0 
STUDY STOPPING CRITERIA 
This first-in-man study is to demonstrate safety and device success defined as the ability to use the 
Bashir™ Endovascular Catheter as intended for the treatment of pulmonary embolism.  The treatment 
for pulmonary embolism in this study utilizes the Bashir™ Endovascular Catheter for the delivery of r-
tPA into the pulmonary artery. The dose of r-tPA in this study is much less than the FDA approved 
prescribed dose (FDA approved dosing 100mg infused intravenously over two hours for massive PE 
versus this study dose of approximately 12mg [for unilateral PE] to approximately 14mg [for bilateral 
PEs] over approximately 8 hours into the PA).   The study stopping criteria will be based on criteria 
related to bleeding, device use, and early efficacy. 
 
18.1 
General Study Stopping Rules 
18.1.1 The Sponsor, DSM, IRBs, regulatory authorities, or the principal investigators 
may make recommendations to terminate the study if the safety and well-being 
of the subjects are in jeopardy.  
18.1.2 If the study is terminated or suspended, prompt notification will be provided to 
all parties involved in the conduct of the study. 
18.1.3 Patient enrollment may be paused or terminated early if the Sponsor or DSM 
determines that the potential benefits of the investigational device are unlikely 
to outweigh the risks associated with continuation of the trial.

18.2 
Safety Study Stopping Rule 
If two (2) patients undergoing the investigational procedure die or experience 
an unprovoked intracranial hemorrhage, confirmed by independent DSM 
adjudication, and did not have a protocol violation such that he/she cannot be 
considered as representative of the intended patient population, the study shall 
be paused for re-evaluation, and may be stopped.  
18.3 
Efficacy Study Stopping Rule 
Should the treatment not achieve a reduction in RV:LV ratio as measured by 
CT at 48 hours by at least 0.06 compared to baseline, in three of the first three 
patients, the study shall be paused for re-evaluation. 
18.4 
Device Study Stopping Rules 
18.4.1 Should it be suspected that a device caused a serious adverse event, the serious 
adverse event will be adjudicated by the independent DSM and the device shall 
be returned to the manufacturer.  A root cause analysis shall be performed. The 
DSM will determine if the study should be stopped, temporarily suspended, or 
continued after each such event.   
 
18.4.2 There are device malfunctions, or non-conformances, that may impact the 
patient and prevent treatment with an investigational device.  Upon 
commencement of enrollment, if there are device failures that prevent three (3) 
patients from being treated in this study, the study shall be paused for re-
evaluation.   A root cause analysis will be performed to determine the cause(s) 
of the device failures and a corrective and preventative action will be 
implemented.   
18.5 
Study Safety Reporting Requirements 
The following reporting requirements are the responsibility of the sponsor and are 
transferred to Eminence Clinical research, Inc. to meet these reporting obligations.  For 
investigations of marketed drugs under an IND, such as in this study requiring the 
administration of FDA approved r-tPA, Eminence Clinical Research, Inc. shall submit

1 INR is only required at baseline for patients on Coumadin (warfarin) and must be ≤ 1.5 prior to enrollment. If patient is eligible for the study, Coumadin will be discontinued temporarily for study purposes. 
2 Pre-procedure suggested aPTT 60-80s.  Suggested aPTT during r-tPA administration is 40-60s. Check aPTT and CBC 4 hr (±1 hr) after heparin is restarted in the IR suite/Cath lab (suggested range 60-80s). 
3 Unfractionated Heparin will be infused IV pre-procedure or Lovenox. Stop Heparin prior to start of procedure. Restart Heparin post procedure with r-tPA infusion. Fibrinogen to be drawn at time of BEC removal in IR suite/Cath lab. 
 Heparin infusion will continue until the completion of the r-tPA infusion. Lovenox 1mg/kg Sub-Q will be started 45 minutes (±15 minutes) from the completion of the r-tPA infusion and given q12hrs (±30 min). 
4Required: PAS, PAD, PA Mean, CO, CI, SpO2, SvO2 / ACT - in IR/Cath lab at baseline (print waveforms) and post-infusion in the IR suite/Cath Lab. Swan-Ganz or angled pigtail may be used. CO= Modified Fick calculation. ACT 
will be done to achieve  (and document) an ACT ≥ 200 seconds.  
5IV solution must be mixed according to protocol and infuse at the prescribed rate into target PA, or both PAs if bilateral PE. Infusion is to be administered at the rate prescribed in this protocol, which is a duration of approximately 8 
 hours. Once the r-tPA infusion is complete, heparinized saline must infuse TKO using the infusion pump until BEC removal.
