About this study

Official title: Evaluation of ACUITY™ X4 Quadripolar Coronary Venous Leads and RELIANCE™ 4-FRONT Defibrillation Leads: NAVIGATE X4

The objective of the NAVIGATE X4 Clinical Study is to gather data to establish the safety, performance and effectiveness of the ACUITY™ X4 quadripolar coronary venous leads and the RELIANCE 4-FRONT™ ventricular defibrillation leads to satisfy FDA requirements for pre-market submission. Additionally, data from this study will be used to support post-market approval requirements for the ACUITY X4 and RELIANCE 4-FRONT leads.

Being tested
ACUITY X4 quadripolar coronary venous lead and RELIANCE 4-FRONT defibrillation lead

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • ACUITY X4 quadripolar coronary venous lead and RELIANCE 4-FRONT defibrillation leadDevice

    Also called LV Quadripolar coronary venous lead, RV defibrillation Lead

    The ACUITY X4 leads are intended for chronic left ventricular pacing and sensing. The leads have 3 tip configuration designs (straight tip, short tip spiral, and long tip spiral), which is intended to provide choices for patients with different anatomies.

    The RELIANCE 4-FRONT leads are designed for right-side heart applications within the ventricle, atrium, and superior vena cava. It is intended for permanent sensing, pacing, and defibrillation when used with a compatible implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) or cardiac resynchronization therapy defibrillator (CRT-D).

    Subjects were allowed to receive both the ACUITY X4 and RELIANCE 4-FRONT lead.

Study groups in NCT02071173
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Enrolled PatientsExperimentalSubjects undergo an implant procedure to receive at least one investigational lead -- ACUITY X4 left ventricular (LV) CRT lead, RELIANCE 4-FRONT right ventricular (RV) ICD lead
Receives: Device: ACUITY X4 quadripolar coronary venous lead and RELIANCE 4-FRONT defibrillation lead

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Percentage of ACUITY X4 Spiral Leads Free From Complication Through 6 Months

    Lead-related complication-free rate of ACUITY X4 Spiral Leads from implant through 6 months post implant.

    Measured: Implant through 6 months

  2. Percentage of ACUITY X4 Straight Leads Free From Complication Through 6 Months

    Measured: Implant through 6 months

  3. Percentage of ACUITY X4 Leads With Acceptable Pacing Capture Thresholds (PCT)

    PCT measurements in the programmed configuration were collected at 3 months post-implant. Programmed configuration refers to the pacing configuration that was selected by the physician to provide LV pacing therapy. The percentage of measurements with PCT ≤ 2.5 V were calculated.

    Measured: Implant through 3 months

  4. Percentage of ACUITY X4 Spiral Leads With Acceptable Pacing Capture Thresholds (PCT) Using the Best Proximal Electrode

    PCT measurements in the in the proximal zone (electrodes 2, 3, 4) were collected at 3 months post-implant. Physician investigators were instructed to use the best proximal electrode (E2, E3 or E4) as the cathode and the RV lead coil or pulse generator as the anode; best was defined as the electrode with the lowest PCT without phrenic nerve stimulation. The percentage of measurements with PCT ≤ 2.5 V were calculated.

    Measured: 3 months

  5. Percentage of RELIANCE 4-FRONT Leads Free From Complication Through 3 Months

    Lead-related complication-free rate of RELIANCE 4-FRONT Leads from implant through 3 months post implant.

    Measured: Implant through 3 months

  6. Percentage of RELIANCE 4-FRONT Leads Free From Complication From 3 Through 24 Months

    Lead-related complication-free rate of RELIANCE 4-FRONT Leads from 3 through 24 months post implant.

    Measured: 3 months through 24 months

  7. Mean Pacing Capture Threshold (PCT) of RELIANCE 4-FRONT Leads at 3 Months

    PCT measurements from RELIANCE 4-FRONT leads were collected at 3 months post-implant. Measurements were performed using 0.5 millisecond pulse width.

    Measured: Implant through 3 months

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. Mean Sensed Amplitude of ACUITY X4 Spiral Leads at 3 Months

    Sensed amplitude measurements from ACUITY X4 Spiral leads were collected at 3 months post-implant.

    Measured: 3 months

  2. Mean Sensed Amplitude of ACUITY X4 Straight Leads at 3 Months

    Sensed amplitude measurements from ACUITY X4 Straight leads were collected at 3 months post-implant.

    Measured: 3 months

  3. Mean Pacing Impedance of ACUITY X4 Spiral Leads at 3 Months

    Pacing impedance measurements from ACUITY X4 Spiral leads were collected at 3 months post-implant.

    Measured: 3 months

  4. Mean Pacing Impedance ACUITY X4 Straight Leads at 3 Months

    Pacing impedance measurements from ACUITY X4 Straight leads were collected at 3 months post-implant.

    Measured: 3 months

  5. Mean Detection Time of Induced Ventricular Tachycardia / Ventricular Fibrillation (VT/VF) Episodes Using RELIANCE 4-FRONT Leads

    The mean detection time, in seconds, of induced VT/VF episodes occurring within 30 days of implant were evaluated. Subjects were required to implanted with RELIANCE 4-FRONT leads to be evaluated.

    Measured: Within 30 days of implant

  6. Mean Sensed Amplitude of RELIANCE 4-FRONT Leads at 3 Months

    Sensed amplitude measurements from RELIANCE 4-FRONT leads were collected at 3 months post-implant.

    Measured: 3 months

  7. Mean Pacing Impedance of RELIANCE 4-FRONT Active Fixation Leads at 3 Months

    Pacing impedance measurements from RELIANCE 4-FRONT Active Fixation leads were collected at 3 months post-implant.

    Measured: 3 months

  8. Mean Pacing Impedance of RELIANCE 4-FRONT Passive Fixation Leads at 3 Months

    Pacing impedance measurements from RELIANCE 4-FRONT Passive Fixation leads were collected at 3 months post-implant.

    Measured: 3 months

  9. Percentage of Successfully Converted Induced Ventricular Tachycardia / Ventricular Fibrillation (VT/VF) Episodes Using RELIANCE 4-FRONT Leads

    Ventricular Tachyarrhythmia (VT/VF) Shock Conversion Efficacy, analyzed within 30 days of implant

    Measured: Within 30 days of implant

What does the primary outcome measure?

Percentage of ACUITY X4 Spiral Leads Free From Complication Through 6 Months (time frame: Implant through 6 months). The study lists 7 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02071173, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
