About this study

Official title: Efficacy of Left Atrial Appendage Closure After Gastrointestinal Bleeding

Patients with atrial fibrillation requiring anticoagulation treatment are at high risk of gastrointestinal bleeding. The investigators propose the percutaneous stop the oral anticoagulation and closure of the left atrial appendage with the Amplatzer ® system in patients receiving anticoagulant therapy for atrial fibrillation without associated valvular heart disease, to reduce significantly the risk of stroke while minimizing the risk of bleeding in a group of patients with high risk for both events.

ELIGIBLE trial(Left atrial appendage Efficacy of GastroIntestinal Bleeding after closure) is a prospective, multicentric and randomized (2 to 1) trial, comparing percutaneous closure of atrial appendage left versus standard treatment with oral anticoagulants in patients with history of gastrointestinal bleeding and high embolic risk.

What is being measured

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

  1. Combined overall mortality, major bleeding, stroke or procedure-related complications

    The primary end point will be at one year the combined overall mortality, major bleeding, stroke or procedure-related complications.

    1. Mortality from any cause
    2. Severe bleeding defined according to VARC criteria
    3. Ischemic stroke or hemorrhagic stroke at 12 months.
    4. Complications related to the procedure: include:
    • device embolization
    • severe pericardial effusion with hemodynamic compromise that requires drainage
    • Device thrombosis
    • cardiac perforation
    • major local complications (according to definitions of VARC)

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Left atrial appendage occlusion in people with Adverse Reaction to Drugs Affecting the Gastrointestinal System, run by Hospital Clinic of Barcelona at 6 sites in Spain.

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 6 inclusion and 11 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Jun 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 sites in Spain. 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 phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Victoria Martín Yuste, MD, PhD (+34-93-227-55-19, vmartiny@clinic.ub.es), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Combined overall mortality, major bleeding, stroke or procedure-related complications (time frame: 1 year). 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 26 Jun 2012.
