Comparison Between the Octaray and Pentaray Catheters in Patients Undergoing Ablation for Atrial Tachycardia. (OCTOPUS-AT)

March 1, 2023 updated by: Tamas Szili-Torok, Erasmus Medical Center

Comparison Between the Multi-electrode Octaray and Pentaray Catheters in Patients Undergoing Ablation for Atrial Tachycardia Using Coherent Mapping.

The goal of this randomized clinical trial is to compare the 3D electroanatomical activation map-quality and -efficiency in patients undergoing atrial tachycardia (AT) catheter ablation. Primary objective of the study is to contrast CARTO-Coherent mapping quality (electrograms per map) using Octaray versus Pentaray catheter for left and right atrium ATs, separately.

Participants will be randomized with 1:1 ratio for undergoing 3D anatomy map with either Octaray (intervention group) or Pentaray (control) group. Next, all patients will undergo activation map of the AT with both catheters. For ablation in the intervention group, the Ocatray made activation map of the AT will be used, and the Pentary made AT activation map will be used in the control group.

Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

This is a randomized open-label cross-over trial including consecutive patients undergoing ablation for atrial tachycardia of the left and right atrium. The sample-sizes of the left (N=20) and right (N=20) atrium will be equal. Half of the eligible patients with either left or right atrium AT will be randomized to undergo Coherent Mapping with Pentaray catheter first followed by Coherent Mapping with the Octaray catheter. The other half will undergo initial Coherent Mapping with the Octaray catheter followed by Pentaray catheter. This way all study participants (total N=40) will undergo the Coherent Mapping with both catheters (Figure 1). Only the second map created with either Octaray (n active arm left atrium =10 and n active arm right atrium =10) or Pentaray (n control arm left atrium =10 and n control arm right atrium =10) will be used for the subsequent ablation procedure.

The main outcome of the trial is the performance of the Coherent Mapping quality (electrograms per map) with Octaray catheter versus Pentaray catheter for left and right atrium, separately. A map will be considered complete when the fill threshold reach 5 mm for the entire surface area of the left or right atrium, that is the interpolation between points will be <5 mm as previously reported. The high- and low-pass filters settings will be harmonized between the catheters. The following data will be collected: 1) number of electrograms per map; 2) Voltage based signal-to-noise ratio (vSNR),17 calculated as the ratio between the mean of the peak-to-peak amplitude of the true local bipolar atrial signals and the mean of the SD of the peak-to-peak of all other signals considered as far-field or ambient lab noise; 3) electrograms acquisition rate (i.e., the acquired number of points per minute of mapping); 4) electrograms acquisition density (i.e., the acquired number of electrograms per cm2 of the left or right atrium); 5) number of electrograms acquired per beat; 6) the total ablation and fluoroscopy times; 7) acute mapping success rate, defined as termination of AT at the target region; 8) number of entrainments attempted and the best post-pacing interval value at the ablation site when available. Successful entrainment is sometimes not possible (i.e., focal AT) and some investigator may prefer not to entrain. Therefore, the decision to use entrainment and the number of entrainment attempts will be left to the discretion of the operator.

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.

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
