About this study

Official title: Mechanical Circulatory Support Korea Post Market Surveillance Study (MCS Korea PMS)

Medtronic is sponsoring this Mechanical Circulatory Support (MCS) Korea Post-Market Surveillance (PMS) to evaluate the safety and performance of the HeartWare Ventricular Assist Device System (HVAD® System) when used in routine clinical care practice in Korea. The MCS Korea PMS is conducted within Medtronic's Product Surveillance Platform (PSR).

Read the detailed description

The MCS Korea PMS is an observational study conducted at two sites. This MCS Korea PMS is required by the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety (MFDS) as a condition of product approval according to Regulation on Medical Device Re-examination. The designated re-examination period is seven years after the approval date (06 Dec 2013 ~ 05 Dec 2020). All patients who require treatment of a commercially available HVAD System for approved indications between the designated re-examination period at a participating PSR site are eligible for enrollment. All enrolled patients will be followed until patient death, transplant, explant (where applicable), or the end of the study, on 05 Dec 2020.

What participants receive

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

  • HeartWare Ventricular Assist DeviceDevice

    Also called HVAD

    The Medtronic HVAD® System is comprised of three major components: the HVAD Pump with inflow and outflow conduits, a Controller and power sources. In addition to these components, the system includes a Monitor, Battery Charger, AC and DC power adapters, and a Carrying Case. The HVAD® System is indicated for hemodynamic support in patients with advanced, refractory left ventricular heart failure; either as a bridge to cardiac transplantation (BTT), myocardial recovery, or as destination therapy (DT) in patients for whom subsequent transplantation is not planned.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Patients implanted with HVAD SystemPatients who require treatment with HVAD for use as bridge to cardiac transplantation (BTT) or destination therapy (DT) within the re-examination period are eligible for enrollment into the MCS Korea PMS. Patient consent may be obtained prior to HVAD implant or after receiving HVAD implant. Waiver of consent may be allowed if allowed by site's Institutional Review Board (IRB) or Ethics Committee (EC).
Receives: Device: HeartWare Ventricular Assist Device

What is being measured

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

  1. Survival rate up to 6 months and 24 months post-implant

    Success (or survival) will be defined as survival, heart transplantation, or explantation for recovery at 6 months post-implant for BTT patients, survival at 24 months post-implant for DT patients.

    Measured: Implant to 6 months, 24 months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Quality of life, as measured by the Minnesota Living with Heart Failure Questionnaire (MLHFQ), up to 24 months post-implant

    Characterize changes in quality of life over time

    Measured: Implant up through 24 months

  2. Functional status, as measured by the New York Heart Association (NYHA) classification, up to 24 months post-implant

    Characterize changes in NYHA class over time

    Measured: Implant up through 24 months

  3. Functional status, as measured by the 6-minute walk test, up to 24 months post-implant

    Characterize changes in 6-min walk test results (walked distance in meters) over time

    Measured: Implant up through 24 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of End-stage Heart Failure, run by Medtronic Cardiac Rhythm and Heart Failure at 2 sites in South Korea.

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 3 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 18 Jun 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in South Korea. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Survival rate up to 6 months and 24 months post-implant (time frame: Implant to 6 months, 24 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 18 Jun 2021.
