Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Treatment: Devices - InterVapor® treatment plus Optimal Medical Therapy
Other interventions - Optimal Medical Therapy

Experimental: Treatment plus Optimal Medical Therapy - Patients will be treated with the InterVapor System and Optimal Medical Therapy

Active comparator: Optimal Medical Therapy - Patients will be treated according to Optimal Medical Therapy


Treatment: Devices: InterVapor® treatment plus Optimal Medical Therapy
Patients will be treated with the InterVapor System in 1 to 2 segments in the upper lobes of each lung (2 to 3 segments total). Patients will also receive Optimal Medical Therapy. Guidelines for prescribing medical treatment for emphysema are published by the American Thoracic Society (ATS) and the National Heart Lung and Blood Institute/World Health Organization (NHLBI/WHO GOLD workshop summary).

Other interventions: Optimal Medical Therapy
Patients will receive Optimal Medical Therapy. Guidelines for prescribing medical treatment for emphysema are published by the American Thoracic Society (ATS) and the National Heart Lung and Blood Institute/World Health Organization (NHLBI/WHO GOLD workshop summary).
