NCT ID NCT07585968
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jul 31, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study tests a new device (Sphere-9 catheter and Affera system) to treat ventricular tachycardia, a fast, dangerous heart rhythm, in 260 adults who have had a heart attack. Participants must have had repeated episodes despite medication or a defibrillator. The goal is to see if the procedure safely stops these episodes without needing stronger drugs for at least 6 months.
