About this study

Official title: First in Man Study to Evaluate Safety and Efficacy of Left Atrial Appendage Pulsed Field Ablation Occluder for Simultaneous Pulsed Field Ablation and Mechanical Closure of the Left Atrial Appendage in Patients With Nonvalvular Atrial Fibrillation

This is the first in man study of E-SeaLATM developed and manufactured by Hangzhou Dinova EP Technology Co., Ltd, which can achieve pulsed field ablation and mechanical closure of the Left Atrial Appendage simultaneously, this study aims to initially verify the safety and efficacy of the device.

Being tested
E-SeaLA, CardioPulse PFA system

What participants receive

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

  • E-SeaLA, CardioPulse PFA systemDevice

    First, pulmonary vein isolation(PVI) was performed with the novel hex spline PFA ablation catheter( CardioPulseTM PFA system, Hangzhou Dinova EP Technology Co., Ltd), then, pulsed field ablation and mechanical closure of the left atrial appendage were achieved by E-SeaLATM(Hangzhou Dinova EP Technology Co., Ltd) implantation.

What is being measured

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

  1. Technical success rate

    Technical success means that the pulmonary vein and left atrial appendage(LAA) remain electrical isolation 20 minutes after ablation, and the per-device leaks≤ 3 mm after E-SeaLA LAA pulsed field ablation(PFA) occluder implantation.

    Measured: immediately after the procedure

  2. The incidence of major adverse events (MAEs) related to devices or procedures 3 months after procedure

    MAE includes death, myocardial infarction, stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA), pulmonary vein stenosis, phrenic nerve palsy, systemic embolism, pericarditis, pericardial effusion/cardiac tamponade, atrial esophageal fistula, severe vascular access complications, device migration, and device embolization.

    Measured: within 3 months after procedure

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Ablation efficiency including total procedure time, catheter dwell time, total ablation time and total X-ray exposure time

    Total procedure time (defined as the total time from initial femoral venipuncture to final catheter removal), catheter dwell time (time between the pulsed field ablation catheter entering the left atrium and its withdrawal from the left atrium), total ablation time (including total PVI ablation time, total LAA ablation time), total X-ray exposure time (the total time of X-ray imaging of the catheter).

    Measured: immediately after the procedure

  2. Left atrial appendage closure rate 12 months after procedure

    after occlusion device implantation, no forward or reverse blood flow through the occluder confirmed by ultrasound, residual forward or reverse blood flow at the edge of the occluder ≤3mm, peri-device leaks ≥grade 3)

    Measured: within 12 months after procedure

  3. Incidence of ischemic stroke within 12 months after procedure (event/patient-year).

    Ischemic stroke refers to the loss of neurological function caused by transient ischemic attack, cerebral thrombosis or cerebral embolism caused by the lesions of the brain itself and/or systemic blood circulation disorders leading to cerebral blood supply disorders. Ischemic stroke is defined as a modified Rankin score (mRS) ≥2 90 days after stroke onset.

    Measured: within 12 months after procedure

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing E-SeaLA, CardioPulse PFA system in people with Nonvalvular Atrial Fibrillation, run by Hangzhou Dinova EP Technology Co., Ltd at 3 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 5 inclusion and 22 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 17 Jan 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Min Tang, professor (+86037158680341, dinova_ep@dnaeps.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Technical success rate (time frame: immediately after the procedure). 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 17 Jan 2024.
