About this study

This study is conducted to investigate the short-term safety and preliminary efficacy of stereotactic radiotherapy for renal denervation to treat refractory hypertension.

Read the detailed description

This will be a single centre, single arm, prospective cohort study. Patients with refractory hypertension will receive single fraction stereotactic radiotherapy for renal denervation. The study has been designed in a careful and stepwise dose escalation fashion in order to minimize the potential risks associated with this innovative technique. The dose escalation is guided by 3+3 algorithm to ensure more patients will be spared dose limiting toxicities and more patients will be entered on the dose level that will be chosen as optimal dose of maximal effect. Low dosing levels with established safety profile will first be applied before administering higher dosing levels based on preclinical studies.

Safety is the primary endpoint of this study. Safety will be assessed by incidence and evaluation of any serious adverse events using CTCAE v5.0 criteria associated with the procedure through 90 days. Efficacy will be evaluated by assessing mean reduction in average 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure at 90 days post-treatment.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) in people with Hypertension, run by Xinhua Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine 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 1 inclusion and 2 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 13 Dec 2019. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Yi-Gang Li, MD (86-13761318166, liyigang@xinhuamed.com.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Safety Endpoint (time frame: 90 days). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 13 Dec 2019.
