A Study of the ReCor Medical Paradise System in Clinical Hypertension (RADIANCE-HTN)

August 26, 2022 updated by: ReCor Medical, Inc.

The "RADIANCE-HTN" Study. A Study of the ReCor Medical Paradise System in Clinical Hypertension

RADIANCE-HTN is a randomized, double-blind, sham controlled, 2-cohort study (TRIO and SOLO) designed to demonstrate efficacy and document the safety of the Paradise Renal Denervation System in two distinct populations of hypertensive subjects.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Subjects with essential hypertension controlled on 1 or 2 antihypertensive medications or uncontrolled on 0-2 antihypertensive medications will be included in the RADIANCE Solo cohort while subjects with treatment resistant hypertension on a minimum of 3 antihypertensive medications will be included in the RADIANCE Trio cohort. Prior to randomization, subjects will be hypertensive in the absence of hypertension medication (SOLO) or despite the presence of a stabilized, single pill, triple, fixed dose antihypertensive medication regimen (TRIO).

Study Plan

This section provides details of the study plan, including how the study is designed and what the study is measuring.

How is the study designed?

Design Details

  • Primary Purpose: Treatment
  • Allocation: Randomized
  • Interventional Model: Parallel Assignment
  • Masking: Triple

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Ultrasound Renal Denervation
Subjects in the TRIO or SOLO cohorts that are randomized to treatment, will receive renal denervation following a renal angiogram
Randomization will occur following the diagnostic renal angiogram. Blinded patients randomized to treatment will receive the renal denervation procedure using the Paradise System to deliver ultrasound energy to thermally ablate and disrupt the renal sympathetic nerves while sparing the renal arterial wall.
Other Names:
  • renal denervation
Sham Comparator: Sham Procedure
For subjects in TRIO or SOLO cohorts that randomize to the sham procedure, the diagnostic renal angiogram intervention will be considered the sham procedure.
Randomization will occur following the diagnostic renal angiogram. For blinded patients randomized to control, the diagnostic renal angiogram will be considered the sham procedure.
Other Names:
  • renal angiogram
