NCT ID NCT03750058

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed This study
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This pilot study tested a new, very small lead (under 2 French) designed to improve cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) for heart failure. In 20 patients getting a standard CRT device, doctors temporarily placed the new lead to see if it could pace the heart's left ventricle from multiple spots. The study measured how often the lead worked well and checked for any immediate problems.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
new micro multipolar lead (device)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could lead to a more precise and less invasive way to deliver cardiac resynchronization therapy for heart failure patients.
What could go wrong
This is a very small pilot study with only 20 patients, so results may not apply to everyone. The lead is new and could have unknown risks or fail to work as expected.

Phase

Not a phased trial

Phase numbers describe drug development. The registry uses this when they do not apply, as it does for trials of devices, procedures or behaviour changes, and for observational studies.

Other sponsor

The registry's catch-all category, for sponsors it does not file as a company, a government agency, or a research network.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Male or female patient aged ≥18 years old. * Patient presenting a CRT-P or CRT-D indication according to the latest ESC guidelines . * Primary implant of a CRT device (including upgrade from a single or dual-chamber pacemaker or ICD). * Signed and dated informed consent. * Patient affiliated with, or beneficiary of a social security category. Exclusion Criteria: * Class IV of NYHA (ambulatory or not). * Allergy to contrast media used for imaging during cardiac catheterization. * Severe Renal Failure (clearance of creatinine \< 30ml/mn/m²). * Previous failure catheterization of the coronary sinus, or previous failure of left ventricular lead implantation. * Already included in another clinical study involving intra-cardiac active implantable device, or participation to any other clinical trial in the last 2 weeks. * Person deprived of liberty by administrative or judicial decision or placed under judicial protection (guardianship or supervision). * Known pregnancy, breastfeeding women or in childbearing age without an adequate contraceptive method (failure rate \< 1%).
