About this study

The AdOPT Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy (CRT) study is an acute, prospective, multi-center, non-randomized investigational study designed to compare indices of cardiac function at device settings optimized using the investigational Adaptive CRT (aCRT) algorithm versus nominal programming. The comparison will be performed during rest, atrial pacing and sub-maximal exercise. AdOPT CRT is a sub study of the Adaptive CRT Study (NTC00980057) being conducted in Europe.

Read the detailed description

Adaptive CRT is an implantable heart failure device feature that attempts to optimize CRT without echocardiographic testing.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Stroke Volume at Rest

    Difference in stroke volume (SV) between BiV pacing with aCRT settings and BiV pacing with nominal settings at rest. Biventricular pacing is a type of pacing that paces both the right and left ventricles of the heart. Stroke volume is the volume of blood pumped from a ventricle in one heart beat.

    Measured: Test day visit (within 14 days of enrollment)

  2. Stroke Volume During Atrial Pacing.

    Difference in SV between BiV pacing with aCRT settings and BiV pacing with nominal settings during atrial pacing. Atrial pacing occurs at 20 beats-per-minute (bpm) above the subject's resting heart rate.

    Measured: Test day visit (within 14 days of enrollment)

  3. Stroke Volume During Sub-maximal Exercise.

    Difference in SV between BiV pacing with aCRT settings and BiV pacing with nominal settings during sub-maximal exercise. Sub-maximal exercise is exercise performed at a level below maximum effort. The subject will perform sub-maximal exercise to achieve target heart rate close to 75% of the age-predicted maximal heart rate.

    Measured: Test day visit (within 14 days of enrollment)

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Cardiac Function With aCRT Settings at Rest

    Difference in blood pressure (BP)-derived and echocardiogram (echo)-derived parameters of cardiac function between BiV pacing with aCRT settings and BiV pacing with nominal settings at rest.

    Measured: Test day visit (within 14 days of enrollment)

  2. Cardiac Function With Nominal Settings at Rest.

    Difference in BP-derived and echo-derived parameters of cardiac function between BiV pacing with nominal settings and intrinsic conduction at rest.

    Measured: Test day visit (within 14 days of enrollment)

  3. Cardiac Function With aCRT Settings During Sub-maximal Exercise.

    Difference in BP-derived and echocardiogram (echo)-derived parameters of cardiac function between BiV pacing with aCRT settings and BiV pacing with nominal settings during sub-maximal exercise.

    Measured: Test day visit (within 14 days of enrollment)

  4. Cardiac Function With Nominal Settings During Sub-maximal Exercise.

    Difference in BP-derived and echo-derived parameters of cardiac function between BiV pacing with nominal settings and intrinsic conduction during sub-maximal exercise.

    Measured: Test day visit (within 14 days of enrollment)

  5. Electrical Conduction at Rest.

    Electrical conduction will be evaluated at rest by measuring the subject's intrinsic atrio-ventricular (AV) interval. The AV interval is the amount time between the start of atrial contraction and the start of ventricular contraction.

    Measured: Test day visit (within 14 days of enrollment)

  6. Electrical Conduction During Sub-maximal Exercise.

    Electrical conduction will be evaluated during sub-maximal exercise by measuring the subject's intrinsic AV interval.

    Measured: Time Frame: Test day visit (within 14 days of enrollment)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing CRT pacing at rest and during exercise in people with Heart Failure, run by Medtronic Cardiac Rhythm and Heart Failure at 7 sites in 6 countries.

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 15 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Aug 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 7 sites in Belgium, Austria, Denmark, Germany, Netherlands and 1 more country. 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.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 12 Oct 2012). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Stroke Volume at Rest (time frame: Test day visit (within 14 days of enrollment)). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 5 Aug 2019.
