Fetal Embolization for Severe Vein of Galen Malformation - A Feasibility and Safety Trial
Fetal Embolization Via Transcardiac Transarterial Ultrasound and Fluoroscopy-guided Endovascular Surgery (FETTUS) for Severe Vein of Galen Malformation - A Feasibility and Safety Trial
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the feasibility and safety of fetal embolization for severe, otherwise lethal, Vein of Galen Malformation (VOGM) via a laparotomy-assisted approach by assessing maternal, fetal, neonatal, and infant outcomes in a cohort of 10 participants. The hypothesis is that in utero embolization of severe VOGM will reduce postnatal mortality and morbidity in severe VOGM infants with minimal maternal risks and acceptably low fetal risks.

詳細な説明
Participants will be offered the FETTUS technique as an alternative to the traditional standard postnatal VOGM embolization if all study criteria are met. During the surgery, the mother's uterus is exteriorized using the standard laparotomy approach that we currently use for our fetoscopic spina bifida repair and then transuterine fetal cardiac access is obtained under continuous ultrasound guidance. Once the needle is in place, a microcatheter is advanced through the blood vessels in the heart and up to the site of the malformation in the brain. The malformation will be embolized using medical-grade glue (Trufill n-BCA Liquid Embolic System, Johnson & Johnson)
All participants will be closely followed with postoperative ultrasound scans and consultations. Delivery will be scheduled at Texas Children's Hospital, and the infants will be followed by our research team until they reach 24 months of age.

説明
Inclusion Criteria:
-
Pregnant woman - maternal age 18 years or older
-
Singleton pregnancy
-
Prenatal sonographic evidence of Vein of Galen Malformation (VOGM) between 23-0/7 and 37-0/7 weeks of gestation
-
VOGM volume ratio (VBR) >9.69% and narrowest mediolateral diameter of the straight or falcine sinus (>10.15 mm) on prenatal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)
-
Worsening VOGM severity on follow up prenatal imaging (i.e. ultrasound, MRI and/or echocardiography), and exceeding the specified threshold measurements in any one or more of the following prognostic markers: VOGM varix volume (≥10.9cm3), new or progressive middle cerebral artery pseudofeeders, and/or worsening combined cardiac index (CCI >750 mL/kg/min).
-
Absence of bilateral extensive brain damage on fetal MRI
-
Absence of significant* fetal anomalies unrelated to VOGM on fetal US and/or MRI imaging
-
Gestational age at the time of the procedure will be between 30-0/7 and 37-0/7 weeks
-
Negative maternal serological tests for HIV, Hepatitis B and Hepatitis C because of the increased risk of transmission to the fetus during maternal-fetal surgery. If the pregnant woman's HIV status or Hepatitis status is unknown, she must be tested and found to have negative results before enrollment
-
The pregnant woman has considered and declined termination of pregnancy
-
The pregnant woman meets psychosocial criteria (sufficient social support, ability to understand the requirements of the study)
-
Signed informed consent by participant and the father of the baby
- Significant associated anomalies are defined as such anomalies that would, in and of themselves, be life limiting or life threatening. A minor anomaly, such as a small VSD or ASD not deemed to be life limiting or threatening, or a cleft lip or other such anomaly, unless part of a genetic syndrome, will not disqualify the fetus.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Extensive fetal brain parenchymal injury or gliosis on fetal MRI, defined as greater than one quarter of supratentorial brain volume consistent with advanced irreversible brain injury
- Severe hydrops fetalis on fetal ultrasound, characterized by large-volume effusions resulting in organ compression, diffuse fetal skin edema, and marked cardiomegaly
- Increased risk for preterm labor including short cervical length (≤ 2.0 cm), history of incompetent cervix with or without cerclage, and previous preterm birth in a singleton pregnancy (other than a patient delivered for a non-repeating medical or surgical indication)
- Placental abnormalities (previa, abruption, accreta) known at time of enrollment
- Pre-pregnancy body-mass index (BMI) ≥40
- Contraindications to surgery including previous hysterotomy (whether from a previous classical cesarean, uterine anomaly such as an arcuate or bicornuate uterus, major myomectomy resection, or previous fetal surgery) in active uterine segment
- Technical limitations precluding fetal surgery, such as extensive uterine fibroids, fetal membrane separation, or uterine anomalies
- Maternal-fetal Rh alloimmunization, Kell sensitization, or neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia affecting the current pregnancy
- Maternal medical condition that is a contraindication to surgery or anesthesia, i.e. any inadequately controlled maternal medical condition resulting in an American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) Physical Status classification of III or higher
- Low amniotic fluid volume (Amniotic Fluid Index less than 5cm), unresponsive to maternal hydration, if deemed to be due to fetal anomaly, poor placental perfusion or function, or membrane rupture
- The pregnant woman does not have a support person (i.e., spouse, partner, family member, or close friend) available to support her for the duration of the pregnancy
- Inability to comply with the travel and follow-up requirements of the trial
- The pregnant woman has severe depression and has not been cleared by a psychiatrist
- The pregnant woman is enrolled or has been enrolled in any another intervention study that affects the mother or fetus
- Maternal contraindications to nonionic contrast agent such as acute thyroid dysfunction and acute kidney injury
- Maternal hypersensitivity to any of the entities associated with the use of nonionic contrast agent. The use of Omnipaque distributed by GE Healthcare company is contraindicated for participants sensitive to any of the components listed on the container package, i.e. Iohexol (Bis(2,3-dihydroxypropyl)-5-[N-(2,3-dihydroxypropyl)-acetamido]-2,4,6-triiodoisophthalamide), edetate calcium disodium and tromethamine
- Maternal hypersensitivity to any of the entities associated with the use of liquid embolic system. The use of Trufill (n-BCA) distributed by Cerenovus - Johnson&Johnson company is contraindicated for participants sensitive to any of the components listed on the container, i.e. n-BCA, Ethiodized Oil and Tantalum Powder

実験的:Fetal Embolization
This is a single arm study in which participants will undergo a one-time intervention of fetal embolization for severe Vein of Galen Malformation. |
Participants will undergo a laparotomy, exteriorization of the uterus, and uterine needle puncture to obtain fetal cardiac access so a catheter can be inserted into an artery and guided up to the site of the malformation. A liquid embolic system (Trufill n-Butyl CyanoAcrylate, Johnson & Johnson) will be used to occlude the dominant arterial pedicle supplying the shunt.
