New radiofrequency wire aims to make heart procedures safer
NCT ID NCT07361445
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This early study tests a new device that uses a special wire with radiofrequency energy to safely cross the wall between the heart's upper chambers. This step is needed for procedures that treat heart rhythm problems or close the left atrial appendage. The study will enroll 60 adults and follow them only until they leave the hospital.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Agilis RF Transseptal System (radiofrequency wire device)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this device could make heart procedures safer and more reliable by improving how doctors access the left side of the heart.
- What could go wrong
- This is a very early, first-in-human study with only 60 people and no long-term follow-up. The device may not work as expected or could cause complications like heart injury or bleeding.

Inclusion Criteria: * Is able and willing to provide written informed consent prior to any clinical investigation-related procedure * Plans to undergo an ablation procedure in LA, LV or concomitant procedure with ablation and LAAO device implantation requiring transseptal puncture * Is at least 18 years of age * Able and willing to comply with all study requirements Exclusion Criteria: * Currently participating in another clinical trial or has participated in a clinical trial within 30 days prior to screening that may interfere with this clinical trial without pre-approval from the study Sponsor * Pregnant or nursing * Known presence of intracardiac thrombus * Known existing circumferential pericardial effusion (\>2 mm) * Previous interatrial septal patch or prosthetic atrial septal defect closure device * Any previous thromboembolic event with in the last 6 months * Known or suspected left atrial myxoma * Known or suspected myocardial infarction within the last two weeks * Unstable angina * Recent (within the last 3 months) cerebral vascular accident (CVA) * Patients with an active infection * Patients who do not tolerate anticoagulation therapy * Presence of other anatomic or comorbid conditions, or other medical, social, or psychological conditions that, in the investigator's opinion, could limit the subject's ability to participate in the clinical investigation or to comply with follow-up requirements, or impact the scientific soundness of the clinical investigation results
