Trial Outcomes & Findings for InSync Model 8040 (InSync) and InSync III Model 8042 (InSync III) Registry (NCT NCT00273182)

NCT ID: NCT00273182

Last Updated: 2013-08-05

Results Overview

Survival curves of overall mortality and cause specific mortality (due to progressive heart failure and sudden cardiac death) were created based on Kaplan-Meier estimates. Estimates went out to 36 month time point. Confidence intervals were calculated on a log-log scale. The Kaplan-Meier estimates are reported in the statistical analysis modules

Participant Flow

The InSync Registry commenced subject enrollment on February 27, 2002. A total of 1999 subjects were enrolled in the study during the time period of February 2002 through February 2008. 1014 subjects completed the study through 36 month follow up. Follow-up of 1000 subjects was required by the FDA to satisfy the conditions of approval.

1999 subjects were enrolled in the study. Of them 1738 had successful post market implants of InSync Model 8040 (n=601), InSync III Model 8042 (n=512) and CRT-D devices (n=625). The rest 262 subjects came from two pre-market studies: MIRACLE study added 141 subjects to InSync Model 8040, InSync III study added 121 to InSync III Model 8042.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 36 month follow-up

Population: The analysis included data from all subjects enrolled in the InSync Registry study and successfully implanted with the InSync or InSync III system.

Survival curves of overall mortality and cause specific mortality (due to progressive heart failure and sudden cardiac death) were created based on Kaplan-Meier estimates. Estimates went out to 36 month time point. Confidence intervals were calculated on a log-log scale. The Kaplan-Meier estimates are reported in the statistical analysis modules

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 36 months follow-up

Population: The analysis included data from all subjects enrolled in the InSync Registry study.

A left ventricular lead related complication is defined as an adverse event that requires invasive intervention or leads to loss of significant device function resulting from the presence or performance of the LV lead. Kaplan-Meier method was used to estimate complication-free rate during the three years of follow-up. Time to the first post-implant LV lead related complication was used for the calculation. Confidence intervals were calculated on a log-log scale.
