About this study

Official title: Postmarket, Retrospective Evaluation of Photo-oxidized Decellularized Bovine Pericardium Used as a Patch in Cardiac Repair or Reconstruction Surgery

The objective of this postmarket, retrospective, single center study is to evaluate the clinical outcomes of patients who have received PhotoFix® Decellularized Bovine Pericardium (PhotoFix) as a patch within a cardiac surgical repair or reconstruction procedure. PhotoFix is prepared from bovine pericardium, which is stabilized using a dye-mediated photo-oxidation process and sterilized using aseptic processing techniques.

Read the detailed description

This study will include a review of approximately 300 charts spanning the implant period of January 1, 2018 through June 30, 2019. Those that meet the inclusion and exclusion criteria will undergo full review and data extraction to be captured in the electronic database. Given the retrospective nature of the study design, a Waiver of Consent will be requested from the Institutional Review Board (IRB). Potential subjects this study are pediatrics or adults who underwent cardiac repair surgery that necessitated the use of a patch. Targeted cardiac procedures include intracardiac repair (including annulus and septal repair), great vessel repair (including superior vena cava, inferior vena cava, pulmonary arteries, pulmonary veins, and ascending aorta), and suture line buttressing and pericardial closure. Follow-up data will be abstracted from the subject's medical record. Study specific testing, including imaging and laboratory testing, will not be required.

What is being measured

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

  1. Overall survival

    Mortality

    Measured: Up to 5 years

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. All-cause reoperation

    The total number of unplanned reoperations required in patients over the follow-up period, which include the repair or alteration of the surgical area around the patch. Patients with planned reoperations, such as CHD staged surgeries, will not be considered.

    Measured: Up to 5 years

  2. Device-related reoperation

    The total number of unplanned reoperations required in patients over the follow-up period, which are determined by the surgeon to be device-related.

    Measured: Up to 5 years

  3. Explant

    The total number of device explants over the course of follow-up.

    Measured: Up to 5 years

  4. Morbidity

    The total number of any adverse event, with specific focus on cardiovascular complications which have the potential to be device-related.

    Measured: Up to 5 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Congenital Heart Disease and Cardiac Anomaly, run by Artivion Inc. at 1 site 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 1 inclusion and 1 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 Jan 2023. 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 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?

The study was stopped early (reason given: Sponsor declined to continue funding the study.). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Overall survival (time frame: Up to 5 years). 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 13 Jan 2023.
