About this study

The STEP IV Study is a prospective, single-center, non-randomized, single-arm study without concurrent or historical controls. The objective of the study is to generate safety and performance data of the latest AtaCor EV Temporary Pacing Lead System to support the development of a future pivotal study with an indication limited to a maximum of 7 days.

Read the detailed description

The primary safety objective is freedom from Adverse Device Effects (ADE). The primary performance objective is summary statistics for pacing capture threshold, impedance, and sensed R-wave amplitude with the StealthTrac Lead from insertion through removal.

One (1) Investigational Site in Paraguay will participate with up to 16 subjects enrolled in the study. Subjects indicated for a closed-chest cardiac invasive procedure will be eligible for participation. Subjects undergoing a qualifying index procedure will have a Model AC-1013 StealthTrac Lead inserted and evaluated over the follow-up period (up to 7 days post procedure). Study participation requires 2 to 7 days with the Study Lead inserted. Following Study Lead removal, a final follow-up will be performed 27-33 days after lead insertion to assess for any latent Adverse Events. Subjects remain enrolled until completion of the 30-Day Follow Up.

The maximum duration for study participation is 33 days. The Study is expected to last up to 3 months after first enrollment: Enrollment and follow-up (1 month) and final report (2 months).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing AtaCor StealthTrac Lead in people with Conduction Defect, run by AtaCor Medical, Inc. at 1 site in Paraguay.

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 2 inclusion and 18 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 3 Mar 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 Paraguay. 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?

Freedom from ADEs (time frame: Up to 7 days post-implant). The study lists 4 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 3 Mar 2023; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 30 Oct 2026.
