About this study

Official title: To Assess the Initial Safety and Performance of COR-VG-001 Conduit in Pediatric Patients Undergoing Extracardiac Total Cavopulmonary Connection (EC-TCPC)

The extracardiac Fontan surgery/procedure involves diverting the venous blood from the inferior vena cava to the pulmonary arteries without passing through the morphologic right ventricle. In the extracardiac conduit type of Fontan, one end of a synthetic tube graft is connected to the inferior vena cava and the other end to the pulmonary artery confluence.

Xeltis developed a biodegradable prosthesis, the Xeltis Vascular Graft Model COR-VG-001, to be used as an extracardiac conduit between right atrium and the pulmonary arteries. The prosthesis is immediately mechanically functional, while its physiochemical characteristics should enable cell infiltration and tissue formation.

The Xeltis Vascular Graft Model COR-VG-OO is specifically designed to enhance the Fontan surgery outcome by reducing synthetic material related complications and improving hemodynamic characteristics.

Read the detailed description

Although significant progress has been made in recent years in the field of congenital heart disease treatment, a substantial unmet clinical need remains for implantable materials/devices such as vascular grafts and heart valves with improved long-term performance and reduced device-related complications.

To address these limitations new generation of biodegradable polymers using recent advances in supramolecular chemistry have been developed to create highly porous vascular grafts allowing efficient cell infiltration following by gradual replacement of the polymer material with the patient's own native-like vascular tissue resulting in full functional restoration. In addition to the ability of reducing postoperative graft-related complications such types of implants have a potential to grow to adapt to the overall body growth and therefore may represent a completely new modality for the treatment of congenital heart disease. In contrast to today's situation with synthetic non-absorbable vascular grafts considered as a "standard of care", where the pediatric patients have to be re-operated several times to adjust the prosthesis size to the somatic growth of the child associated with substantial morbidity and mortality and requiring prolonged anticoagulation treatment, a biodegradable polymer implant could represent a "one-time solution".

What participants receive

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

  • Vascular Graft, Model COR-VG-001Device

    The intended use of the Xeltis Vascular Graft, Model COR-VG-001 is to create an extracardiac total cavopulmonary connection (EC-TCPC) connection to divert the venous blood from the inferior vena cava to the pulmonary arteries without passing through the morphologic right ventricle reducing the volume load on the functional single ventricle and thereby improving hemodynamics by minimizing the deleterious effects of ventricular hypertrophy.

What is being measured

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

  1. The Number of Graft Related Post-operative Complications That Require a Repeat Surgery or a Non Surgical Treatment Within 12-month Post Implantation.

    Evaluation of the safety of the COR-VG-001 as defined by numbers of patients having graft related post-operative complications requiring surgery, intervention or leading to death within 12-month post implantation

    Measured: 12 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. The Number of Grafts That Have a Reduced Function Post Operatively.

    Evaluation of the performance of the COR-VG-01 by analyzing, with the help of echocardiography, the incidence of loss of functionality requiring intervention within 12 months post implantation.

    Measured: 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Vascular Graft, Model COR-VG-001 in people with Heart Defects, Congenital, run by Xeltis at 1 site in Russia.

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 3 inclusion and 28 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 10 Nov 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Russia. 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 10 Nov 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?

The Number of Graft Related Post-operative Complications That Require a Repeat Surgery or a Non Surgical Treatment Within 12-month Post Implantation. (time frame: 12 months). 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 10 Nov 2020.
