About this study

Official title: HALO Clinical Study: A Single Arm, Prospective, Non-randomized, Multi Center Investigation of the SJM™ Masters HP™ 15mm Rotatable Mechanical Heart Valve

The purpose of the study is to provide evidence of safety and effectiveness of the study valve. The rationale is to offer a replacement mitral valve for patients with anatomy that is too small for the currently commercially available valves ranging in size from 16mm to 37mm.

20 subjects were enrolled as part of the IDE cohort and an additional 3 were enrolled under continued access.

Read the detailed description

The study is a single arm, prospective, non-randomized, multi-center clinical investigation.

The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the 15mm MHV in subjects five years or less of age with a diseased, damaged, or malfunctioning mitral heart valve. The objective will be evaluated by assessing valve-related adverse events, subject survival, subject growth, and echocardiogram assessment of hemodynamic function through the five year follow-up visit as long as the valve remains implanted.

What is being measured

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

  1. Primary Effectiveness Endpoint: Kaplan-Meier Percentage of Participants Who Remained Alive or Had Valve Explanted Due to Anatomical Growth

    The Kaplan-Meier method is a statistical method that summarizes the rate at which subjects survive or are free from a specified event. The method uses whether or not a subject had the specified event and their time to the specified event or the end of their follow-up to calculate the rate.

    Kaplan-Meier event rates with 95% confidence intervals would be calculated for overall survival. All follow-up time through 365 days post implant would be considered. If a subject discontinues prior to one year post implant, all available data would be included.

    Measured: 12 months

  2. Primary Effectiveness Endpoint: Peak Gradient as Assessed by Echocardiography

    Peak gradient as assessed by echocardiography at 12 months post implant or when the valve is removed/replaced due to anatomical growth of the subject, whichever occurs first.

    Measured: 12 months

  3. Primary Effectiveness Endpoint: Mean Gradient as Assessed by Echocardiography

    Mean gradient as assessed by echocardiography at 12 months post implant or when the valve is removed/replaced due to anatomical growth of the subject, whichever occurs first.

    Measured: 12 months

  4. Primary Effectiveness Endpoint: Number of Participants With Valvular Regurgitation

    Valvular regurgitation as assessed by echocardiography at 12 months post implant or when the valve is removed/replaced due to anatomical growth of the subject, whichever occurs first.

    Measured: 12 months

  5. Primary Safety Endpoint: Rate of Total Valve-related Adverse Events

    Kaplan-Meier event rates with 95% confidence intervals would be calculated for valve-related adverse events. All follow-up time through 365 days post implant would be considered. If a subject discontinues prior to one year post implant, all available data would be included.

    Measured: 12 months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Percentage Change in Height Percentiles From Baseline to 12 Months

    Percentiles would be summarized by visit interval from baseline to 12 months for all available data. Summary statistics including number of subjects, mean and standard deviation are provided at the 12-month visit.

    Measured: 12 months

  2. Percentage Change in Weight Percentiles From Baseline to 12 Months

    Percentiles would be summarized by visit interval from baseline to 12 months for all available data.Summary statistics including number of subjects, mean, standard deviation, and difference between visits were used for this endpoint.

    Measured: 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Mitral valve replacement SJM™ Masters HP™ 15mm Rotatable Mechanical Heart Valve in people with Mitral Valve Disease and Damaged Mitral Valve, run by Abbott Medical Devices at 24 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 31 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Feb 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 24 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 2 Jun 2020). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Primary Effectiveness Endpoint: Kaplan-Meier Percentage of Participants Who Remained Alive or Had Valve Explanted Due to Anatomical Growth (time frame: 12 months). The study lists 5 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 11 Feb 2025.
