About this study

Official title: 3D Cardiac Electrophysiological Mapping System on Renal Artery Radiofrequency Ablation System for Hypertension: a Prospective, Multicenter, Randomized Controlled Trial

To verify the safety and effectiveness of the renal artery radiofrequency ablation system under the guidance of the three-dimensional cardiac electrophysiological mapping system in the renal denervation of essential hypertension.

Read the detailed description

This trial is a prospective, multi-center, randomized controlled clinical study to verify the safety and efficacy of the renal artery radiofrequency ablation system under the guidance of the three-dimensional cardiac electrophysiological mapping system in the application of renal denervation of essential hypertension,designed to include drug-control research and sham-control resarch. Provide the basis for product registration and marketing and clinical application. Drug-control research include 65 subiects (5 are subjects trained and taught by the experimental group leader unit center, 40 subjects are randomly to the renal artery ablation with durg treatment group, 20 subjects to the drug treatment group). Sham-control research include 180 subjects, will be randomly assigned according to 2:1 (120 subjects in the renal artery ablation with drug treatment group and 60 subjects in the sham procedure with drug treatment group).

Patients will be followed for blood pressure measurement and antihypertensive medication at 1 month, 2 months, 3 months, 4 months, 5 months, 6 months, and 12 months after the procedure. Patients' urine samples will be collected for drug testing (LC-MS/MS) to determine their medication compliance in an independent laboratory.

What is being measured

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

  4. Percentage of subjects change the number, class, dose of antihypertensive drugs

    Measured: Baseline to 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 months post procedure

  5. Difference in antihypertensive drug burden index

    Measured: Baseline to 6 months post procedure

  6. Subjects level of TTR ( time in target BP range)

    Measured: Baseline to 6 months post procedure

  7. Success rate of the renal interventional therapy procedure

    Procedure success rate defined as successful introduction of the catheter, navigation to the treatment site, and there are no procedure-related SAE.

    Measured: during the procedure

  8. Incident of acute procedure safety events

    Measured: 7 days post procedure

  9. Incident of chronic procedure safety events

    Measured: 6 months post procedure

  10. Incidence of TTR with MAE, all cause death, stroke and myocardial infarction

    Measured: Baseline to 6 months post procedure

  11. Incidence of adverse events

    Measured: Baseline to 6 months post procedure

  12. Incident of serious adverse events

    Measured: Baseline to 6 months post procedure

  13. Ablation system defect rate

    Measured: During procedure

What does the primary outcome measure?

24-hour ambulatory mean systolic blood pressure reduction (time frame: Baseline to 6 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT05590871, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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.
