About this study

Official title: A Prospective, Multicenter Clinical Study of Percutaneous Left Atrial Appendage Closure as Secondary Prevention of Atrial Fibrillation-related Embolic Events in Patients With Atrial Fibrillation

This clinical study is a prospective, multi-center, non-interventional study designed to investigate the safety and effectiveness of percutaneous LAA appendage closure by using LAmbre™ Left Atrial Appendage Occluder System. 579 patients with valvular AF complicated with previous AF-related embolic events (including ischemic stroke, TIA and systemic embolism) were enrolled at about 20 study sites nationwide. The baseline data, operation process and relevant follow-up information of subjects were recorded at 7 months after operation or before discharge and at 1, 3, 6, 12 and 24 months after operation.

Read the detailed description

Study Population Patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation and previous AF-related embolic events Purpose To assess the feasibility and safety of percutaneous LAA closure as secondary prevention for patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) and previous atrial fibrillation (AF) related embolic events (including ischemic stroke, transient ischemic attack (TIA), and systemic embolism).

What participants receive

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

  • Transthoracic EchocardiographyDiagnostic test

    Also called Transesophageal Echocardiography

    After the surgey, the tests data will be collected during 8 visits when the subjects go back to the hospital.

What is being measured

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

  1. Incidence of new ischemic stroke, systemic embolism, and cardiac death 12 months after operation

    Ischemic stroke, systemic embolism, and cardiac death events

    Measured: 12 months

  2. Incidence of major bleeding events (intracranial or gastrointestinal, or any bleeding requiring transfusion of ≥ 2 units of red blood cells) at 12 months after operation

    Bleeding events

    Measured: 12 months

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Surgical success rate

    Surgical success

    Measured: 24 months

  2. Success rate of LAA closure at 3 months after operation

    Successful LAA closure was defined as a residual shunt ≤ 3 mm by TEE or ICE after implantation of the LAA occluder.

    Measured: 3 months

  3. The composite endpoint of new ischemic stroke, systemic embolism and cardiac death at 7 months after operation or before discharge and at 1, 3, 6 and 24 months after operation

    Ischemic stroke, systemic embolism, and cardiac death events

    Measured: 24 months

  4. (4)Perioperative (7 days after operation or before discharge) surgery-related complications

    7 days after operation or pre-discharge procedure-related complications include but are not limited to stroke (ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke), systemic embolism, allergic reaction, gas embolism, pericardial effusion/cardiac tamponade requiring intervention, occluder detachment, occluder thrombosis (DRT), minor bleeding events (including but not limited to puncture site hematoma, non-major bleeding events), infection, arrhythmia, damage to blood vessels or organs on the implantation path and adjacent organs

    Measured: 7 days

  5. Procedure-related complications during follow-up

    Follow-up at 1, 3, 6, 12 and 24 months after operation for procedure-related complications, including all-cause death, stroke (ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke), cardiac perforation, pericardial effusion/cardiac tamponade requiring intervention, major bleeding events (intracranial or gastrointestinal, or any bleeding requiring transfusion of ≥ 2 units of red blood cells), occluder thrombosis (DRT), infection, systemic embolism, allergic reaction, arrhythmia, and other serious cardiovascular events requiring intervention or surgical treatment

    Measured: 24 months

  6. Occluder defects during operation and in the 3rd month after operation

    Including but not limited: Occluder displacement, Occluder detachment, Occluder breakage, Occluder damage, etc

    Measured: 3 months

  7. Incidence rate of severe adverse events within 24 months after operation

    including but not limited to all-cause death, events requiring hospitalization or prolongation of hospitalization, severe endocarditis requiring surgery, pericarditis, cardiac perforation, valvular injury, vascular or gas embolism events, occluder detachment/displacement, occluder fracture, occluder thrombosis (DRT), stroke events

    Measured: 24 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Non-valvular Atrial Fibrillation and Embolic Stroke, run by Lifetech Scientific (Shenzhen) Co., Ltd. at 5 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 11 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Dec 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 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.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Chenyang Jiang, Doctor (8613857190051, panshangming@lifetechmed.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Incidence of new ischemic stroke, systemic embolism, and cardiac death 12 months after operation (time frame: 12 months). 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 19 Dec 2022.
