About this study

Official title: A Prospective, Multi-center, Randomized, Controlled Non-inferiority Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of Cera™ Patent Foramen Ovale Occluders.

To evaluate the performance of Cera™ patent foramen ovale occluders developed by Lifetech Scientific (Shenzhen) Co., LTD;

Read the detailed description

The purpose of this prospective, multi-center, randomized, controlled non-inferiority clinical trial was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Cera™ patent foramen ovale occluders developed by Lifetech Scientific (Shenzhen) Co., LTD for the treatment of cryptogenic stroke complicated with patent foramen ovale. The study required the implant to follow instructions strictly.

Being tested
Cera™ patent foramen ovale occluders, Another patent foramen ovale occluders
Medical subject headings
Foramen Ovale, Patent, Ischemic Stroke

What is being measured

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

  1. Success rate of effective occlusion

    Effective occlusion was defined as: 180 days after the surgery, Transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) showed that the position and shape of the occluder were normal, and no horizontal atrial shunt was observed. Re-examination by Contrast transthoracic echocardiography (cTTE) showed no or only a small amount of right-to-left shunt, that is, no microvesicles or less than 10 microvesicles/frame in left heart cavity after Valsalva and resting state.

    Measured: 180 days after surgery

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. Success rate of occluder implantation technology

    The success of occluder implantation technology is defined as successful intraoperative implantation of occluder and immediate Echocardiography confirmed that the shape and position of the sealing device were appropriate, no new pericardial effusion or valve regurgitation was found, and the perioperative patients survived.

    Measured: 7 days after surgery

  2. Success rate of surgical implantation of occlusion

    Successful occluder implantation was defined as successful implantation of occluder and routine postoperative hospitalization that there were no serious adverse events related to surgery.

    Measured: 7 days after surgery

  3. Success rate of complete occlusion

    Complete occlusion was defined as the Transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) showing occlusion 180 days after surgery The position and shape of the apparatus were normal, and no horizontal atrial shunt was observed. The results of Contrast transthoracic echocardiography (cTTE) were reviewed there was no right-to-left shunt, that is, no microbubbles in the left heart cavity after Valsalva and resting state.

    Measured: 180 days after surgery

  4. Success rate of effective occlusion

    Success rate of effective occlusion was defined as: Transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) showed the position and shape of the occluder 360 days after the operation Normal condition, no horizontal atrial shunt; Reexamination by Contrast transthoracic echocardiography (cTTE) showed no or few results in other words, there were no microbubbles or less than 10 microbubbles in the left heart cavity after Valsalva and resting state.

    Measured: 360 days after surgery

  5. Recurrence or incidence of cryptogenic stroke during follow-up

    Cryptogenic stroke was defined as a new focal cerebral ischemia confirmed by neuroimaging (cranial MRI or CT), which was performed After extensive vascular, cardiac, and blood evaluation, non-atherosclerotic, cardiogenic, or arteriolar obliterators were identified Cerebral infarction caused by the diagnosis of exclusion.

    Measured: 360 days, 2 years, 3 years, 4 years, 5 years after surgery

  6. All-cause mortality rate

    All-cause death is defined as death from any cause during the follow-up period.

    Measured: 360 days, 2 years, 3 years, 4 years, 5 years after surgery

  7. Incidence of new atrial fibrillation and atrial flutter during follow-up period

    atrial fibrillation and atrial flutter

    Measured: 360 days, 2 years, 3 years, 4 years, 5 years after surgery

  8. Incidence of device-related serious adverse events during follow-up (including device-related thrombosis, embolic stroke, and peripheral stroke)

    Arterial embolism, Atrioventricular block III degree, heart abrasion, infective endocarditis, severe hemolytic anemia, etc.);

    Measured: 360 days, 2 years, 3 years, 4 years, 5 years after surgery

  9. Incidence of device defects.

    Device defects refer to unreasonable risks that may endanger human health and safety under normal use of medical devices in clinical trials, such as label errors, quality problems and failures.

    Measured: 360 days, 2 years, 3 years, 4 years, 5 years after surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Cera™ patent foramen ovale occluders and Another patent foramen ovale occluders in people with Patent Foramen Ovale and Cryptogenic Stroke, run by Lifetech Scientific (Shenzhen) Co., Ltd. at 14 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 10 inclusion and 21 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Sep 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 14 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Xiangbin Pan, Doctor (13811763898, xiangbin428@hotmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Success rate of effective occlusion (time frame: 180 days after surgery). 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 1 Sep 2023.
