About this study

Official title: Treatment of Resistant Hypertension Using a Radiofrequency Percutaneous Transluminal Angioplasty Catheter in China

REDUCE-HTN-China study is a prospective, multi-center, single cohort study for the percutaneous therapeutic treatment of medication-resistant hypertension in China.The primary objective is to assess the efficacy performance of the Vessix™ Renal Denervation System for the treatment of medication resistant hypertension on the basis of the hypothesis that the percutaneous therapeutic renal denervation for the treatment of medication-resistant hypertension using the Vessix™ Renal Denervation System will reduce systolic (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) at 6- month compared to baseline as accessed by office-based blood pressure measurements.

Read the detailed description

The Vessix System is a highly-differentiated and advanced renal denervation system that features an intuitive push-button interface, a short 30-second treatment time and an over-the-wire, balloon-based approach familiar to most cardiac and vascular specialists. The Vessix System has both CE Mark and TGA approval and is currently available for sale in Europe, the Middle East, Australia, New Zealand and selected markets in Asia. The Vessix System is an investigational device and not available for sale in China. An current analysis of the REDUCE-HTN post market study affirms the device's safety profile and effective treatment for resistant hypertension.

What is being measured

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

  1. The mean reduction of systolic blood pressure measured by office-based blood pressure assessment

    Measured: at 6-month post procedure

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Major adverse event (MAE) rate

    Major adverse event (MAE) rate is a composite rate including the following events: All-cause death; Renal failure (eGFR <15 ml/min/1.73m2 or need for renal replacement therapy); Significant embolic event resulting in end-organ damage or intervention to prevent it; Renal artery dissection or perforation requiring intervention;Hospitalization for hypertensive crisis not related to confirmed non-adherence with anti-hypertensive medications; Vascular complications requiring surgical repair, interventional procedure, thrombin injection, or blood transfusion

    Measured: at one month post procedure

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Percutaneous renal denervation with the Vessix™ Renal Denervation System in people with Medication-resistant Hypertension, run by Boston Scientific Corporation at 1 site in China.

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 9 inclusion and 22 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 14 Sep 2020. 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 China. 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?

The study was stopped early (reason given: company strategic change). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

The mean reduction of systolic blood pressure measured by office-based blood pressure assessment (time frame: at 6-month post procedure). 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 14 Sep 2020.
