NCT ID NCT04684212

First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study was designed to test a device called LAmbre Plus, which is implanted to seal off a small pouch in the heart where clots can form in people with atrial fibrillation. The goal was to see if it could safely prevent strokes in patients with large or irregularly shaped heart pouches who are at high risk. However, the trial was withdrawn before any participants were enrolled, so no results are available.

Active substance

LAmbre Plus Left Atrial Appendage Closure System (a device implanted to seal off part of the heart)

What this could lead to

If successful, this device could offer a stroke-prevention option for people with atrial fibrillation who cannot take blood thinners long-term.

What could go wrong

The trial was withdrawn before enrolling anyone, so no data exists. Device procedures carry risks like bleeding, heart perforation, or device movement.
