NCT ID NCT05164107

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
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
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 Results may not be published yet.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This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.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 study tests a new device that uses short bursts of energy (pulsed field ablation) to treat atrial fibrillation, a common heart rhythm problem. The device maps the heart and then delivers energy to specific areas to correct the rhythm. Researchers will enroll 175 people to see if the procedure is safe and works well.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Globe Mapping and Pulsed Field Ablation System (Globe PF System)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could provide a safer, more precise way to treat atrial fibrillation, potentially reducing complications and improving outcomes.
What could go wrong
This is an early pilot study with no control group, so results are preliminary. The procedure carries risks like any heart ablation, including bleeding, heart damage, or irregular heartbeats.

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.

Participants

About 175 people

The number the study aims to enrol. It can still change while the study runs.

Started

Dec 2021

Expected to finish

May 2027

An estimate. End dates often move.

Lead sponsor

A company

The lead sponsor is a pharmaceutical, biotech, or medical-device company.
