About this study

Official title: A Clinical Research for Safety and Feasibility of Implantable Alginate Hydrogel as a Method of Left Ventricular Restoration in Patients With Heart Failure

The objective of this clinical research is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of Implantable Alginate Hydrogel to reconstruct the left ventricle in the treatment of heart failure

Conditions
Heart Failure
Being tested
Implantable Alginate Hydrogel
Keywords
caused by ischemic cardiomyopathy, caused by non-ischemic cardiomyopathy

What participants receive

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

  • Implantable Alginate HydrogelDevice

    Implantable Alginate Hydrogel is a single use, multiple component device. It is expected to be used as a space-occupying material implanted into the myocardium to affect the shape of the left ventricle and reduce the clinical symptoms of patients with left ventricular ischemia and non-ischemic cardiomyopathy.

    The hydrogel serves as an artificial myocardial filler to stop the continuous expansion of the ventricle and restore it to a more favorable shape and size. The expected clinical effect of the Implanted Alginate Hydrogel is to reduce the clinical symptoms of patients and improve the quality of life by improving the structure and function of the failing heart.

What is being measured

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

  1. Rate of Serious Adverse Device Events

    Definition of SADE: Any complications related to the device include but not limited: death, stroke, permanent damage to the heart, any situation that requires further intervention, etc.

    Measured: 30 days after implantation

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Device successfully Setup rate

    Device successfully Setup defined as:

    1. The device reaches the expected implant location
    2. Implant the hydrogel accurately in the left ventricle wall for 6~12 implant points.
    3. Remove the delivery system

    Measured: immediately after the implantation

  2. Incidence of SAE

    Rate of Serious Adverse Events occurred during procedure and follow-up

    Measured: Within 6 months after implantation

  3. NHYA Class level changes rate between baseline and 6 months' follow-up

    Measured: 6 months after implantation

  4. Quality of life changes rate between baseline and 6 months' follow-up

    Measured: 6 months after implantation

  5. Rate of Rehospitalization due to heart failure

    Rehospitalization due to heart failure within 6 months after implantation

    Measured: within 6 months after implantation

  6. LVEF changes rate between baseline and 6 months' follow-up

    Measured: 6 months after implantation

  7. Size of LV changes rate between baseline and 6 months' follow-up

    Measured: 6 months after implantation

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Implantable Alginate Hydrogel in people with Heart Failure, run by Xijing Hospital 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 6 inclusion and 13 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 4 Mar 2021. 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?

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?

Rate of Serious Adverse Device Events (time frame: 30 days after implantation). 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 4 Mar 2021.
