OPTImal Treatment of Sinus VENOSUS Defect (OPTIVENOSUS)

August 9, 2023 updated by: Centre Chirurgical Marie Lannelongue

OPTImal Treatment of Sinus VENOSUS Defect - Efficacy and Safety of Transcatheter Correction Compared to Surgical Treatment in Patients With Sinus Venosus Defect

Sinus venosus defect (SVD) accounts for 10% of atrial septal defects and is characterized by an anomalous pulmonary venous return in the superior vena cava associated with a high situated atrial septal defect. Since 2013, transcatheter correction of this congenital heart disease has emerged as a new treatment option. The procedure involves placement of a covered stent in the superior vena cava that tunnels the anomalous pulmonary venous return to the left atrium. Preliminary results are limited but promising.

The devices to be used depend on anatomic considerations. XXL stents than 70mm are often required. Today, the availability of CE marked stents is limited. There have been recent reports of successful corrections with the specifically developed Optimus XXL 100mm covered stent (ANDRATEC) with compassionate approval from the Agence Nationale de Sûreté du Médicament in France. Setting up a feasibility study to investigate the use of medical devices in this indication was required.

The objective of this project is to study the feasibility, efficacy and safety of the Optimus stent in this newly developed transcatheter procedure, in comparison with the gold-standard surgical method. A French national multicenter comparative cohort study including all eligible patients referred for transcatheter correction of SVD was designed. The feasibility of the transcatheter procedures will be investigated beforehand by virtual digital simulation and simulation on a 3D printed model. The procedures will then be performed in centers of the M3C network for complex congenital heart diseases (CARDIOGEN). The primary endpoint will be a composite of efficacy, defined as complete occlusion of the shunt, and safety, defined as the absence of major events at 6 months. The secondary endpoints will be anatomical, functional and psychosocial (quality of life).

It is expected that transcatheter treatment gives comparable results to surgery on the primary endpoint. This could justify the further development of this procedure as an alternative to surgery and facilitate the validation of dedicated equipment.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

OPTIVENOSUS will be offered to patients who have an correction of SVD. A pre-therapeutic assessment will be prescribed with a CT scan and MRI, followed by a complementary assessment with a 6-minute walk test, a functional cardiorespiratory examination, a Holter and an ECG.

In addition, the images from the CT scan carried out during the pre-therapeutic assessment will be transferred to a secure platform approved for hosting health data. These images will be the subject of a 3D reconstruction.

Then a multidisciplinary consultation meeting held by paediatric cardiologists, specialists in adult congenital heart disease, surgeons and interventional cardiologists will be held to assess whether or not the patient is ineligible for surgery and whether or not the patient is eligible for transcatheter correction of SVD on the basis of the imaging examinations and the clinical assessment.

During this meeting, the imaging core lab and the experts will give their opinion on the feasibility of the endovascular procedure.

The criteria considered for ineligibility for surgery will include

  • Comorbidities
  • Complications (rhythm disorders, heart failure, pulmonary hypertension).
  • Age of the patient
  • Anatomical considerations

The criteria considered for eligibility for percutaneous treatment are:

  • Ineligibility for surgery
  • An adult patient with a compatible anatomy (distance between the upper edge of the anomalous pulmonary venous return and the lower edge of the innominate venous trunk > 2cm allowing sufficient stent attachment in the SVD; a diameter of the atrial septal defect >10mm allowing redirection of flow from the anomalous pulmonary venous return to the left atrium without restriction and a position of the anomalous pulmonary veins allowing redirection of flow to the left atrium without obstruction by the stent in digital simulation). These 3 elements will be analysed on the injected scanner and then confirmed by the scanner simulation, the 3D printed model and the simulation of the procedure on an experimental test bench.

If the patient is eligible for the endovascular approach, a bench simulation of the endovascular procedure will be performed.

A simulation of the endovascular procedure is performed on a test bench in the hybrid room of the Marie Lannelongue Hospital. The test bench consists of a 3D model of the heart that corresponds exactly to the patient's anatomy, produced using CT images.

The simulation allows on the one hand to confirm the feasibility of transcatheter correction of SVD and on the other hand to define the characteristics in terms of diameter and length of the necessary devices (stent and balloons) for the procedure in order to have a personalized approach.

The simulation session will take place in the presence of the referring interventional cardiologists.

All patients, regardless of the mode of correction of SVD, will have the same follow-up at D7, 1 month, 6 months and then every year for 5 years with an echographic control and a clinical evaluation
