About this study

The purpose of this study is to observe the safety and effectiveness of the AMPLATZER™ Cardiac Plug (ACP) device in Chinese population indicated for use of AMPLATZER™ Cardiac Plug after its market approval by China FDA (CFDA). This is a prospective, multi-centre, single arm, post approval, observational study. The clinical study will be conducted at up to 35 sites in China. Approximately 343 subjects will be enrolled in this study.

The total study duration is expected to be approximately 7 years. The study population included patients who have non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) and are contraindicated to long-term oral anticoagulant; or patients who experience stroke or other thromboembolic event despite taking warfarin.

Scheduled office visits occur at 45 days (+45 days), 6M (+/- 3 weeks) 12M (+/- 6 weeks) and 24 M(+/- 6 weeks) post procedure; Phone contact follow up visits occur at, 36 M (+/- 6 weeks), 48M (+/- 6 weeks) and 60 M (+/- 6 weeks) post procedures.

What participants receive

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

  • AMPLATZER™ Cardiac PlugDevice

    The AMPLATZER™ Cardiac Plug is a transcatheter, self-expanding device intended for use in preventing thrombus embolization from the left atrial appendage. The device is constructed from a nitinol mesh and consists of a lobe and a disc connected by a central waist. The device is designed to facilitate occlusion. The lobe has stabilizing wires to improve device placement and retention. The device has threaded screw attachments at each end for connection to the delivery and loading cables. The device has radiopaque markers at each end and at the stabilizing wires. Device Sizes: 16, 18, 20, 22, 24, 26, 28, and 30 mm (lobe diameter) Delivery System: AMPLATZER TorqVue® 45º x 45º (sheath sizes 9, 10, or 13 Fr)

What is being measured

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

  1. Short-Term Safety Endpoint: Composite Rate of Death, Stroke, Systemic Embolism, and Procedure or Device-related Complications Requiring Intervention

    The primary short-term safety endpoint was the composite of death, stroke (ischemic or haemorrhagic), systemic embolism and procedure or device-related complications requiring major cardiovascular or endovascular intervention.

    Measured: Within 7 days of the procedure

  2. Long-Term Safety Endpoint: Composite Rate of Device Embolization/Device Erosion/Device Interference With Surrounding Structure/Device Thrombus/Device Fracture/Device Infection/Device Perforation/Device Laceration/Device Allergy

    The primary long-term safety endpoint was the composite of of device embolization, device erosion, clinically significant device interference with surrounding structure, device thrombus, device fracture, device infection (endocarditis and pericarditis), device perforation, device laceration, or device allergy.

    Measured: Within 2 years of the procedure

  3. Long-Term Effectiveness Endpoint: Composite Rate of Ischemic Stroke or Systemic Embolism

    The primary long-term effectiveness endpoint was the composite rate of ischemic stroke or systemic embolism.

    Measured: Within 2 years of the procedure

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Non-valvular Atrial Fibrillation (NVAF), run by Abbott Medical Devices at 6 sites in China.

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 10 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 24 Jun 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 sites in China. 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 24 Jun 2022). 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?

Short-Term Safety Endpoint: Composite Rate of Death, Stroke, Systemic Embolism, and Procedure or Device-related Complications Requiring Intervention (time frame: Within 7 days of the procedure). The study lists 3 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 24 Jun 2022.
