Filter by:This is a Phase 2, multicenter, double-blind, sponsor unblinded, placebo-controlled, single-dose clinical study of CRD-4730 to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamics (PD) of CRD-4730 when administered as single oral doses to participants with Catecholaminergic Polymorphic Ventricular Tachycardia (CPVT). The study will have 2 cohorts in which participants with CPVT will participate in a 3-period, randomized 2-sequence study. Each participant will receive 2 different doses of CRD-4730 and 1 dose of matching placebo, with each study drug administered as a single dose.
Objective: To explore in our center the feasibility and safety of a SBRT treatment method for VT. Study population: Patients with ventricular tachycardia that are refractory to dose-escalated antiarrhythmic drugs and where catheter ablation has either already been performed or is deemed to be unsuccessful or associated with high risks. Intervention: Patients will be treated with a stereotactic body radiotherapy technique as a single fraction treatment up to a dose of 25 Gy delivered to the VT substrate defined by electrophysiological mapping. Main study endpoints: The primary aim is to explore the feasibility and safety of a SBRT treatment method for refractory VT. Secondary endpoints include an assessment of the efficacy of the treatment, quality of life, late toxicity and overall survival. Patients will have to fill in a quality-of-life questionnaire before and after the radiotherapy treatment. The risk associated with this trial is an increase in toxicity.
The purpose of this study is to assess the performance and safety of using the investigational catheter.
Prospective, observational, single center, pilot study to analyze the feasibility of motion and structural data integration in patients with ventricular arrhythmia by means of artificial intelligence for improved arrhythmogenic substrate characterization and motion management during stereotactic arrhythmia radioablation.
Management of cardiac arrest according to published guidelines has remained largely unchanged for a decade. Thames Valley Air Ambulance provide Critical Care Paramedic and Physician teams who respond to cardiac arrests and offer treatments beyond the scope of ambulance service clinicians. Following a review of practice and appraisal of evidence the investigators developed an additional algorithm for cases of adult medical cardiac arrest with refractory shockable rhythms. This adds to but does not replace the Advanced Life Support algorithm and includes: - Delivering shocks with the LUCAS mechanical CPR device running - After 5 shocks have been delivered placing new pads in the Anterior Posterior (AP) position - Delivering shocks using the TVAA Tempus Pro defibrillator rather than the Ambulance Service defibrillator. This bundle was based on recommendations from ILCOR and the Resus Council (UK) Advanced Life Support manual and was launched in October 2021.
Prospective single-arm study investigating the efficacy and safety of non-invasive cardiac radiosurgery for the treatment of ventricular tachycardia (VT) with reduced dose of radiation (20 Gy). The efficacy and safety outcome measures will be compared with historical control - patients treated within the SMART-VT study (NCT04642963) with a single dose of 25 Gy to test the hypothesis that reduced dose of radiation is similarly effective in terms of reduction of VT burden.
Radiofrequency ablation of ventricular tachycardias (VTs) is the gold standard treatment of refractory VTs in patients with ischaemic heart disease. In this setting, ablation is usually performed endocardially. However, even after a procedural success there is a high risk of recurrence, particularly due to the inability to create transmural lesions. Indeed, only the endocardium of the LV has been ablated, while a significant part of the arrhythmia substrate may be located on the other side of the myocardial thickness, on the epicardial side of the LV. First described in 1996, epicardial ablation, performed via a percutaneous subxyphoid approach, has since undergone considerable development. Electrophysiologists often use a double endo- and epicardial approach as first line therapy for the ablation of VTs complicating myocarditis or arrhythmogenic dysplasia of the right ventricle, where the substrate is most often epicardial. For VT in ischaemic heart disease, electrophysiologists perform endocardial ablation, and often perform epicardial ablation only after several endocardial failures. Several observational studies suggest that a combined endo- and epicardial approach as first line therapy is associated with a reduced risk of VT recurrence. Since recurrent VT in patients with ischaemic heart disease as a prognostic impact in terms of morbidity and mortality, it appears essential to optimise rhythm management by ablation, by offering a combined approach from the as first approach to reduce the risk of recurrences. The aim of our prospective, multicentre, controlled, randomized study is therefore to compare the rate of VT recurrence after ablation performed as first line therapy either by endocardial approach alone or by combined endo-epicardial approach.
The goal of this clinical trial is to demonstrate that the OPTIMIZER® Integra CCM-D System (the "CCM-D System") can safely and effective convert induced ventricular fibrillation (VF) and spontaneous ventricular tachycardia and/or ventricular fibrillation (VT/VF) episodes in subjects with Stage C or D heart failure who remain symptomatic despite being on guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT), are not indicated for cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT), and have heart failure with reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF ≤40%). Eligible subjects will be implanted with the CCM-D System. A subset of subjects will be induced into ventricular fibrillation "on the table" in the implant procedure room. During the follow-up period, inappropriate shock rate and device-related complications will be evaluated. The follow-up period is expected to last at least two years.
The Prospective Cardiac Ultrasound Imaging Study is a single center, single arm, feasibility study. The study aims at collecting cardiac ultrasound data from patients diagnosed with ventricular tachycardia, during rest and short breath hold sequences. This study is part of the engineering studies linked to the CardioKit-Minimum Viable Product project. The CardioKit prototype used in the study can monitor cyclical heart-beat motion, cyclical respiratory motion and non-cyclical heart position changes while the patient is lying in supine position.
The goal of this observational study is to learn about the factors which determine how well ventricular tachycardia (VT) is tolerated. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. What impact does coronary artery disease have on the ability for a patient to tolerate VT? 2. Does treatment of coronary artery disease with stents improve the tolerability of VT? Participants who are undergoing a clinically indicated coronary angiogram or coronary angioplasty procedure will have measurements of blood pressure, coronary pressure and coronary flow made during pacing at a range of heart rates.
