Clinical Trial Summary

The study is intended to demonstrate the safe implant of small receiver-electrodes into the endocardial surface of the left ventricle and to demonstrate its utility in providing cardiac resynchronization therapy in heart failure patients.


Description:

Eligible patients will undergo an acoustic window assessment using transthoracic echocardiography. Patients with adequate acoustic windows will undergo implantation of the WiCS-LV system.

Patients will undergo evaluations pre-hospital discharge, and at one month, 3 months, and 6 months post implantation. Extended follow-up will be obtained via a registry at 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 years post implantation.

Gender All
Age group 18 Years to 75 Years
Eligibility Inclusion Criteria:

Patients with standard indications for CRT based upon the most recent ESC/EHRA guidelines AND meeting criteria for one of these two categories:

1. Patients with previously implanted pacemakers or ICD's and meeting standard indications for CRT but in whom standard CRT is not advisable due to known high risk - referred to as "upgrades". Justifications for not using standard CRT must be documented in a CRF.

2. Patients in whom coronary sinus lead implantation or attempted implantation for CRT has failed to provide demonstrable therapy benefit - referred to as "untreated"

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Inability to comply with the study follow-up or other study requirements

2. History of chronic alcohol/drug abuse and currently using alcohol/drugs

3. Non-ambulatory (or unstable) NYHA class 4

4. Contraindication to heparin

5. Contraindication to both chronic anticoagulants and antiplatelet agents

6. Triple anticoagulation therapy (warfarin, clopidogrel, ASA, and other agents)

7. Thrombocytopenia (platelet count <150,000)

8. Contraindication to iodinated contrast agents

9. Intracardiac thrombus by transesophageal echocardiography

10. Age less than 18 years or greater than 75

11. Attempted IPG implant within 3 days

12. Life expectancy of less than 12 months

13. Chronic hemodialysis

14. Stage 4 or 5 renal dysfunction defined as GFR <30

15. Grade 4 mitral valve regurgitation

16. Myocardial infarction within one month

17. Major cardiac surgery within one month

18. History of a pericardial effusion in prior procedures

19. Female of childbearing potential, pregnant, or breastfeeding (a pregnancy test will be obtained where applicable)

20. Non-cardiac implanted electrical stimulation therapy devices

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Number of patients with device-related adverse events as a measure of safety Device-related adverse events are those in which the WiCS-LV system is directly or indirectly responsible. 24 hour peri-operative and one month
Primary Number of patients with procedure-related adverse events as a measure of safety Procedure-related adverse events are those which occur during the WiCS-LV system implant procedure. 24 hour perioperative and one month
Primary Bi-ventricular pacing capture Bi-ventricular pacing capture documented on 12-lead EKG one month
Secondary Number of patients with device-related adverse events as a measure of safety Device-related adverse events are those in which the WiCS-LV system is directly or indirectly responsible. 6 months
Secondary Number of patients with serious adverse events as a measure of safety 6 months
Secondary Bi-ventricular pacing capture Bi-ventricular pacing capture documented on 12-lead EKG 6 months
Secondary Clinical composite score Composite of all cause mortality, heart failure hospitalization, NYHA class, and patient global assessment 6 months
Secondary Change in echocardiographic indices change in left-ventricular end-systolic volume, left ventricular end-diastolic volume, and ejection fraction 6 months
