About this study

Official title: Multi-center Trial of Percutaneous Pulmonary Valve Implantation Using Venus-P Valve for Patients With Severe Pulmonary Regurgitation and Native Right Ventricular Outflow Tract After Previous Surgical Repair

Venus-P Valve (Venus Medtech, Shanghai, China) is the first self-expandable interventional Pulmonary Valve, which is composed of a Nitinol multilevel support frame with a tri-leaflet porcine pericardial tissue valve, and a 14-22 Fr delivery catheter. The purpose of the multi-center trial is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the Venus-P Valve for percutaneous pulmonary valve implantation (PPVI) in patients pulmonary regurgitation and native right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) after surgical repair of RVOT.

Read the detailed description

Clinical experience to date with transcatheter pulmonary valve replacement has been limited to two balloon expandable systems, namely the Melody Valve (Medtronic Inc, Minneapolis, MN) and the Sapien valve (Edwards Lifesciences, Irvine, CA). Both valves have undergone clinical trials with good medium-term valve durability. Although both the Melody and the Sapien valves have been used in native outflow tracts with good success , limitations to the extended application of these valves have generally centered on the maximum diameter of the RVOT. Indeed in the majority of patients requiring pulmonary valve replacement (PVR), these balloon expandable systems are not large enough to maintain stable valve position within the dilated native RVOT.Therefore more recent efforts have concentrated on a self-expanding system to provide valve competence despite significant dilation of the native RVOT.

Venus-P Valve (Venus Medtech, Shanghai, China) is the first self-expandable interventional Pulmonary Valve, which is composed of a Nitinol multilevel support frame with a tri-leaflet porcine pericardial tissue valve, and a 14-22 Fr delivery catheter. The purpose of the trial is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the Venus-P Valve for PPVI in patients pulmonary regurgitation and native RVOT after surgical repair of RVOT.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing Venues-P Valve in people with Pulmonary Regurgitation and Tetralogy of Fallot, run by Shanghai Zhongshan Hospital at 3 sites 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 8 inclusion and 10 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 29 Oct 2015. 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 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.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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 Wenzhi Pan, M.D. (peden@sina.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

right ventricular end diastolic volume index (time frame: 6 months). 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 NCT02590679, 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 29 Oct 2015.
