Safety and Efficacy of the GORE® Septal Occluder to Treat Ostium Secundum Atrial Septal Defects

August 10, 2020 updated by: W.L.Gore & Associates

GORE® Septal Occluder Clinical Study: A Study to Evaluate Safety and Efficacy in the Treatment of Transcatheter Closure of Ostium Secundum Atrial Septal Defects (ASDs)

The primary objective of the GORE® Septal Occluder Study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the occluder device in the treatment of transcatheter closure of ostium secundum atrial septal defects (ASDs). The data obtained in this study will evaluate this next generation device as compared to outcomes of prior studies conducted with the GORE® HELEX® Septal Occluder.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

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.

Detailed Description

Ostium secundum atrial septal defects present as a persistent communication between the atria and are a common congenital cardiac anomaly accounting for approximately 10% of all congenital heart disease. They are one of the most common congenital heart defects to present in adulthood. Untreated, ASDs produce right heart volume overload and progressive impairment over time, including reduced aerobic capacity, atrial dysrhythmias, congestive heart failure, pulmonary hypertension, and potential paradoxical embolism. In the U.S. alone it is estimated that approximately 10,000 new patients per year can be expected to have an ASD. Successful surgical repair of ASD has been performed for 50 years with continued improvement in technique and outcomes. King and Mills reported the first transcatheter closure of ASD in 1976, but the delivery system was quite large and impractical, especially for younger patients. With time, improvements in design concepts and materials discoveries have led to improved results in transcatheter closure systems. Several devices are now available commercially for transcatheter ASD closure.

Study Type

Study Type

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.

Enrollment (Actual)

Enrollment

The number of participants in a clinical study. The "anticipated" enrollment is the target number of participants that the researchers need for the study.
400

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. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

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

  • Child
  • Adult
  • Older Adult

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • ASD less than or equal to 17 mm.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Conditions that would confound treatment of ASD or complicate distinguishing onset of adverse events.
  • Unable to accommodate device delivery catheter.

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
Number of Subjects With 6-Month Composite Clinical Success
Time Frame: 6 months

Among subjects with attempted study device closure, the number of subjects who satisfy all of the following components:

  1. Technical Success: Successful deployment and retention at conclusion of index procedure of a GORE® CARDIOFORM Septal Occluder

  2. Safety Success:

    • Freedom from any Serious Adverse Event (SAE) through 30 days post-procedure
    • Freedom from device events (post-procedure embolization, device removal, or other device reintervention) from completion of the implant procedure through 6 months (195 days) post-procedure
  3. Closure Success: A clinical residual defect status of occluded or clinically insignificant as determined by the Echo Core Lab at the 6-month evaluation
6 months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures
