About this study

Official title: Substrate Ablation Guided by Automatic High Density Mapping for the Treatment of Atrial Fibrillation

To evaluate a new AF Substrate mapping method based on automatic high density CFAE detection with a multipolar catheter (Pentaray) and the " SCI 30-40 " setting of CARTO CFAE algorithm.

Read the detailed description

This study is observational :

This substrate ablation method is performed routinely in the centers involved in the study so, patients were not assigned by the investigators to undergo a specific procedure because of the study, in all cases patient would have beneficiate from this substrate mapping ablation method.

We assessed procedural and follow up outcomes of this subatrate ablation group and compared them with an historical control group undergoing conventional ablation.

Being tested
Routine substrate ablation without pulmonary vein Isolation, Routine conventional ablation with pulmonary vein Isolation
Medical subject headings
Atrial Fibrillation

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Routine substrate ablation without pulmonary vein IsolationProcedure or surgery

  • Routine conventional ablation with pulmonary vein IsolationProcedure or surgery

Study groups in NCT02093949
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
StudiedBetween September 2013 and July 2014, 105 patients were enrolled in 3 centers performing routinely Atrial Fibrillation ablation guided by spatio-temporal electrogram dispersion without pulmonary vein Isolation
Receives: Procedure: Routine substrate ablation without pulmonary vein Isolation
ControlThe validation set included a cohort of 47 patients with symptomatic drug-refractory AF who underwent ablation using a conventional approach.
Receives: Procedure: Routine conventional ablation with pulmonary vein Isolation

What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of Patient With Atrial Fibrillation Termination at the End of the Procedure

    percentage of patient in sinus rhythm or in atrial tachycardia at the end of the procedure

    Measured: up to 240 min

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. % of Patients With Sinus Rhythm Conversion During the Procedure

    Measured: 180 min

  2. Radiofrequency Time (Min)

    Measured: up to 300 min

  3. Percentage of Patients Free From Atrial Fibrillation 18 Months Post Ablation

    % of patients in sinus rhythm or in atrial tachycardia assessed by ECG and/ot 24h-Holter monitoring and clinical examination during follow-up.

    Measured: 18 Months post ablation

  4. Number of Patients With Major Adverse Events During and up to 18 Months After Procedure

    Adverse events

    Measured: 18 months post ablation

  5. Maximum Sustained AF Duration

    duration of the longest AF epiodes in months before ablation

    Measured: from first AF episode to baseline

  6. Mean LA Volume

    Left Atrial volume before ablation in ml

    Measured: baseline

  7. Spontaneous AF at the Beginning of the Procedure

    Spontaneous AF at the beginning of the procedure

    Measured: baseline

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Atrial Fibrillation, run by Hospital St. Joseph, Marseille, France at 3 sites in France.

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 1 inclusion and 1 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 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in France. 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 3 May 2017). 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?

Percentage of Patient With Atrial Fibrillation Termination at the End of the Procedure (time frame: up to 240 min). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02093949, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 2017.
