About this study
Official title: EFS Study of the Renal Nerve Mapping/Selective Renal Denervation (msRDN) System in the Absence of Antihypertensive Medications: A Prospective, Multicentre, Single-Arm Exploratory Trial
This small-scale, proof-of-concept pilot study aims to obtain preliminary evidence of msRDN procedural safety, feasibility, and short-term efficacy in patients with hypertension without medication therapy, to adequately plan an appropriate pivotal study.
Read the detailed description
This is a prospective, multicenter, single-arm, exploratory study enrolling 15 subjects across approximately four sites with a 6-month follow-up period. Subjects are patients with uncontrolled hypertension who receive 1-2 antihypertensive medications and have completed a minimum two-week medication wash-out period prior to enrollment, or patients with uncontrolled hypertension without medication therapy.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A study testing The SymPioneer G2 Mapping/Selective Renal Denervation Device and SyMapCath Catheter II in people with Hypertensive Disease, run by SyMap Medical (Suzhou), Ltd. at 1 site 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 6 inclusion and 9 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 13 Jan 2026. 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 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 Jie WANG, MD,PHD (+8613511604566, jay329329@yahoo.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Change in daytime ASBP (time frame: From baseline to 2 months after RDN). 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 2026.
