Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • At least 18 years of age
  • Cardiac dysfunction due to failure-to-wean from cardiopulmonary bypass
  • Subjects who are on IABP, CPB, ECMO or CPS support prior to evaluation should have the device turned off, if possible, for the purpose of measuring inclusion hemodynamics. However, these devices should not be turned off in patients who would be harmed by interruption of support.
  • All subjects must meet the following criteria at the time of enrollment:

  • Hemodynamics:

    1. cardiac index ≤ 2.2 L/min/m2
    2. For patients being evaluated for left-sided support (LVAD): PCWP ≥ 18 mmHg or PADP ≥ 18 mmHg or LAP ≥ 18 mmHg
    3. For patients being evaluated for right or biventricular support: CVP ≥ 15 mmHg or RAP ≥ 15 mmHg and RVSWI ≤ 4.1 gm/m2/beat
    4. Enrollment without hemodynamic measurements due to frequent or unpredictable dysrhythmias, unacceptable cardiac function, or hemodynamic instability is allowed.
  • Placement of an intra-aortic balloon pump has been attempted unless contraindicated
  • All possible measures have been attempted to correct low arterial pH, arterial blood gas abnormalities, electrolytes, hypovolemia, hypervolemia, inadequate cardiac rate, dysrhythmias and residual hypothermia
  • Cardiac resuscitation using pharmacologic agents, and epicardial pacing (if appropriate and possible) has been attempted
  • Written, signed, and dated informed consent

Exclusion Criteria:

  • BUN > 100 mg/dl
  • Creatinine > 5 mg/dl
  • Presence of any investigational mechanical circulatory support device
  • Known history of liver cirrhosis or portal hypertension
  • Pulmonary infarction
  • Stroke, TIA or history of either condition within the last six months and/or any confirmed, existing neurologic deficits
  • Active systemic infection defined as positive blood cultures, core temperature >100.5 degrees, white blood count > 12,500, and treatment with antimicrobials
  • Participation in a clinical trial with any experimental treatment within 30 days prior to screening or previous participation in the present study
  • Other serious disease(s) limiting life expectancy

  • Interventional Model: Single Group Assignment
  • Masking: None (Open Label)

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm

Participant Group / Arm

A group or subgroup of participants in a clinical trial that receives a specific intervention/treatment, or no intervention, according to the trial's protocol.
Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.
Experimental: CentriMag Ventricular Assist System
All patients meeting the patient selection criteria will be treated with the CentriMag Ventricular Assist System.
Device: CentriMag Ventricular Assist System
All eligible subjects will receive the CentriMag Ventricular Assist System. The system is comprised of a single-use centrifugal blood pump, a motor, a primary drive console, a back up drive console and cannulae. Blood from the failing heart is directed from the ventricle or the atrium to the inlet of the pump via an inlet cannula. Blood exits through the outlet port of the pump through the outlet cannula ultimately to the pulmonary or systemic circulation. The system can be used in either a right, left or biventricular configuration.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Survival
Time Frame: 30 days post-support or to hospital discharge, whichever is longer OR to induction of anesthesia for implantation of a long-term device or heart transplant
Number of patients alive 30 days after device implantation
30 days post-support or to hospital discharge, whichever is longer OR to induction of anesthesia for implantation of a long-term device or heart transplant

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Improvement in Central Venous Pressure (CVP) and Mean Arterial Blood Pressure (MAP)
Time Frame: Mean CVP or MAP during support (up to 30 days) minus baseline CVP or MAP
Change in mean CVP while on pump support and in MAP during pump support. CVP and MAP were measured daily during pump support and the mean CVP and MAP during pump support were compared to baseline. Mean CVP or MAP during support (up to 30 days) minus baseline CVP or MAP.
Mean CVP or MAP during support (up to 30 days) minus baseline CVP or MAP

Primary Completion (Actual)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure.

For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.

Study Completion (Actual)

Study Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention/treatment to collect final data for the primary outcome measures, secondary outcome measures, and adverse events (that is, the last participant's last visit).
