Who cannot join

  • Pregnant or nursing patients and those who plan pregnancy in the period up to 1 year following index procedure. Female patients of childbearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test done within 7 days prior to index procedure per site standard test.
  • Patients with atrial fibrillation that is defined by a single occurrence, or that is transient or reversible (e.g., secondary to CABG, an interventional procedure, pneumonia, or hyperthyroidism)
  • Patients who require long-term anticoagulation for a condition other than atrial fibrillation
  • Patients with an indication for chronic P2Y12 platelet inhibition therapy

About this study

Official title: A Prospective, Multicenter, Randomized Controlled Trial Assessing the Safety and Efficacy of the LAmbre™ Plus Left Atrial Appendage Closure System to REDUCE the Risk of Thromboembolism in Patients With Non-Valvular Atrial Fibrillation

Randomized controlled trial assessing the safety and efficacy of the LAmbre Plus LAA Closure System to rescue the risk of thromboembolism in patients with non-valvular AF.

Read the detailed description

The goal of this clinical trial is to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of the LAmbre Plus device in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation in comparison with the commercially available transcatheter LAAO device(s). The main questions it aims to answer are:

Overall safety of the device that is assessed at the 12 month time period. Overall efficacy, after all subjects have reached the 18 month time period.

Participants will be randomized to either the LAmbre device or other FDA approved LAAO devices.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing LAmbre investigational device in people with Atrial Fibrillation, run by Kansas City Heart Rhythm Research Foundation.

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 7 inclusion and 25 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Aug 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 Donita Atkins, RN, BSN (816-651-1969, datkins@kchrf.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Major procedure related complications - cardiac perforation (time frame: up to 7 days following implant procedure). The study lists 7 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT06465706, which also lists 48 linked publications.

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 23 Aug 2024.
