About this study
Official title: Renal Artery DenervatIon Using Radial accesS in Uncontrolled HyperTensioN:Non Inferiority Study Comparing Safety and Efficacy of Radio Frequency Renal Denervation Using Iberis Renal Denervation System Via Radial Access Compared With Femoral
Non-inferiority, prospective, multi-center, international, post-market, randomized (1:1) clinical trial in patients with uncontrolled hypertension to compare the safety and efficacy of radio frequency renal denervation using Iberis Renal Denervation System via radial access compared with femoral access.
Read the detailed description
Non-inferiority, prospective, multi-center, international, post-market, randomized (1:1) clinical trial.
90 patients with uncontrolled hypertension treated with 2 to 5 antihypertensive drugs including one angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB) or angiotensin-converting enzyme Inhibitor (ACE-I) in combination with one diuretic or calcium channel blocker will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to the radial access renal denervation group (intervention) or the femoral access renal denervation group (control).
Around 12 sites in 3 European countries (France, Germany and Switzerland) are planned to enroll 90 patients.
For patients with a contraindication for the TransFemoral Access (major femoral disease, bilateral femoral vascular prosthesis, extreme obesity), a register is also carried out in parallel with the study. The inclusion and exclusion criteria will be the same except the fact that patients have to be eligible for TransFemoral access, endpoints and data collected will be the same.
All patients will be followed per standard of care practice and follow-up visits are scheduled at 3 months (follow-up time window +14 days) and 6 months (follow-up time window +30 days).
Estimated duration of inclusions: 27 months. Total estimated duration of study: 38 months.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A study testing Transfemoral Renal Denervation and Transradial Renal Denervation in people with Hypertension, run by Shanghai AngioCare Medical at 11 sites in 3 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 6 inclusion and 7 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 5 Jul 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 11 sites in France, Germany, Switzerland. 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 Bradley S Hubbard, DVM (713-818-3188, bshdvm@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Change in office systolic blood pressure at 3 months. (time frame: 3 months). 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 5 Jul 2024.
