About this study

Official title: A Prospective, Non-randomized, Single-arm Study to Evaluate the Safety and Performance of the KALPA X™ Mapping, Imaging, and Navigation Device in Patients Undergoing Left Atrial Appendage Closure (LAAC)

This prospective, multi-center, non-randomized, single-blinded, open-label, single-arm, comparator study will enroll up to 100 eligible subjects from multiple sites undergoing LAAC procedure to evaluate the safety and performance of the KALPA™ mapping, imaging and navigation device in patients undergoing Left Atrial Appendage Closure (LAAC).

Read the detailed description

All subjects will undergo pre-procedural cardiac computed tomography angiography (CCTA) no more than 1 year prior to the performance of the LAAC procedure to evaluate left atrial appendage (LAA) anatomy. Before and after a transseptal puncture, the right atrium (RA), left atrial appendage (LAA), and left upper superior pulmonary vein (LUSPV) will be mapped using the KALPA™ system in combination with a commercially available catheter. Subjects will then undergo LAAC as per routine clinical care. Following implantation of the LAAC device, subjects will be assessed for the peri-device leak (PDL) with a transesophageal echocardiogram (TEE) as well as PDL assessment using the KALPA X™ system (the operator will be blinded to KALPA X™ PDL reading). The entire LAAC procedure will be conducted as customary practice using standard and approved off-the-shelf equipment (body surface electrodes, catheters, etc.) the operator will be blinded to the KALPA™ and KALPA X™ system information. The physician will neither use nor rely on any of the KALPA™ or KALPA X™system output for clinical decision-making.

All patients will then undergo cardiac computed tomography angiography (CCTA) and TEE at 45 days following the index LAAC procedure to assess residual PDL. Intra-procedure PDL post-LAAC assessed by KALPA X™ will be compared to the detection of PDL by TEE. The value of PDL as measured by TEE compared to KALPA X™ at the time of the index LAAC procedure in predicting PDL at 45 days post-LAAC as assessed by CCTA will be compared.

What participants receive

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

  • KALPA X™Device

    Before and after a transseptal puncture, the right atrium (RA), left atrial appendage (LAA), and left upper superior pulmonary vein (LUSPV) will be mapped using the KALPA™ system (WS Software ver. 1.0.229-0 Source control ID: 65f1dbf7) in combination with a commercially available catheter. Subjects will then undergo LAAC as per routine clinical care. The entire LAAC procedure will be conducted as customary practice using standard and approved off-the-shelf equipment (body surface electrodes, catheters, etc.) the operator will be blinded to the KALPA™ and KALPA X™ system information.

KALPA XExperimentalThe KALPA™ and KALPA X™ systems will be used during the performance of the LAAC procedure that is performed using customary and conventional tools and imaging technologies as currently performed in the participating center.
Receives: Device: KALPA X™

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of participants with KALPA X™ device-related adverse events

    Safety of using KALPA X™ during a cardiac procedure, specifically the safety of using KALPA™ during the LAAC procedure, by collecting the records of device related AE's

    Measured: Up to 24 hours

  2. LAA maximum diameter and perimeter assessed by KALPATM compared to cardiac CT

    Measures of LAA maximum diameter and perimeter obtained by KALPATM performed during the LAAC procedure will be compared to these measurements obtained by the pre-procedure cardiac CT

    Measured: Up to 24 hours

  3. Multi-Modality Assessment of Immediate Post-LAAC Peri-Device Leak (PDL) by TEE and KALPA X™

    PDL measured by KALPA X™ (defined below) will be assessed compare to the PDL detected by TEE

    Measured: Up to 24 hours

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Follow-up PDL

    The predictive power of intra-procedural TEE and KALPA X™ for the detection of PDL will be compared to 45 day post-LAAC PDL as detected by TEE and CCTA

    Measured: Up to 45 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing KALPA X™ in people with Left Atrial Appendage Aneurysm, run by Cara Medical Ltd at 2 sites in 2 countries.

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 5 inclusion and 5 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Feb 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Italy, Lithuania. 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?

The study was stopped early (reason given: The intended population has been updated). 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?

Number of participants with KALPA X™ device-related adverse events (time frame: Up to 24 hours). The study lists 3 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 14 Feb 2025.
