What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
PTMA ImplantDevice
Percutaneous assessment from right or left subclavian vein, with PTMA implant in the coronary sinus, great cardiac vein.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Experimental | Patient is screened for study and given baseline assessments. Patient receives a diagnostic PTMA assessment and if responsive, receives a PTMA implant. Receives: Device: PTMA Implant |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
percent of patients who remain free from device-related major adverse events: death, myocardial infarction, tamponade, emergent cardiac surgery
Measured: 30 days
Secondary outcomes (2)
percent of implanted patients who maintain a sustained 1 grade reduction in mitral regurgitation and reduction in mitral anterior posterior dimension
Measured: 30 days
improvement of clinical symptoms of heart failure as defined by percent of implanted patients who exhibit one of the following: decrease in NYHA class, improvement in Minnesota QOL survey, increase in 6 minute walk, improvement in VO2 max.
Measured: 30 days

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1/2 study testing PTMA Implant in people with Heart Failure and Mitral Regurgitation, run by Viacor at 1 site in Germany.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Nov 2008. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in Germany. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this combined phase mean?
Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.
Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
percent of patients who remain free from device-related major adverse events: death, myocardial infarction, tamponade, emergent cardiac surgery (time frame: 30 days). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 6 Nov 2008.
