What is being measured

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

  1. Major adverse events

    All cause death, renal artery occlusion, renal artery stenosis, renal infarction and/or renal failure

    Measured: 30 days

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Change from baseline in office blood pressure measurement

    Measured: 30 days, 3 months, 6 months, 9 months, 12 months

  2. Change from baseline in ambulatory 24-hour blood pressure measurement

    Measured: 6 months, 12 months

  3. Change from baseline in renal artery dimensions

    Change in renal artery dimensions as measured by renal angiography, CT, or MRI

    Measured: 30 days

  4. Change from baseline in creatinine

    Measured: 6 months

  5. Adverse events and device complications

    Measured: 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Early Phase 1 study testing Ultrasound-based Renal Denervation in people with Uncontrolled Hypertension, run by Sound Interventions, Inc. at 1 site in Czechia.

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 4 inclusion and 3 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 31 May 2013. 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 Czechia. 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?

Early Phase 1 (sometimes called Phase 0) studies give a very small amount of a treatment to a few people, mainly to see how the body handles it.

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 David A. Smith (dsmith@sounditv.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Major adverse events (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 31 May 2013.
