Single-Arm Study Evaluating Use of the CORA Catheters for the Crossing of Coronary Chronic Total Occlusions

NCT ID: NCT05848232

Last Updated: 2024-05-10

Basic Information

• Recruitment Status: NOT_YET_RECRUITING
• Clinical Phase: PHASE3
• Total Enrollment: 150 participants
• Study Classification: INTERVENTIONAL
• Study Start Date: 2024-06-30
• Study Completion Date: 2025-02-28

Brief Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the coraFlex, coraForce, and coraCross catheters for crossing chronic total occlusions of the coronary arteries. The study will compare the rate of procedure success to success rates from previous trials.

Participants will undergo percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for a chronic total occlusion and be followed for 30 days post-procedure.

Detailed Description

The primary objective of this prospective, multicenter, single arm clinical study is to compare the rate of procedure success of the coraCross, coraForce, and coraFlex catheters in facilitating guidewire placement beyond coronary chronic total occlusions to a pre-defined performance goal based on literature. The study population will consist of those 18 years or older with symptomatic ischemic heart disease, undergoing clinically indicated percutaneous recanalization of an occlusive coronary lesion, and meeting all other eligibility criteria. Measures will be assessed through 30 days post-intervention.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

1. Subject willing and able to provide informed consent and able to comply with the study protocol and follow up.

2. Male or non-pregnant female ≥18 years of age at time of consent.

3. Subjects experiencing clinical symptoms suggestive of ischemic heart disease or has evidence of myocardial ischemia attributed to the CTO target vessel and is scheduled for clinically indicated percutaneous revascularization.

4. Subject is a candidate for PTCA, stenting, and emergency CABG.

1. A minimum of one de novo lesion with at least one target segment in a native coronary vessel meeting CTO criteria {defined as TIMI grade 0 flow} and estimated to be > 3 months duration by clinical history and/or comparison with a prior angiogram or electrocardiogram.

Exclusion Criteria

1. Subject unwilling or unable to comply with the protocol or follow-up requirements, in the opinion of the investigator.

2. Subject life expectancy less than one year, in the opinion of the investigator.

3. Subject is pregnant or planning to become pregnant during the course of the trial.

4. Evidence of MI within 72 hours prior to the index procedure.

5. History of stroke or transient ischemic attack within 6 months prior to the index procedure.

6. Prior coronary interventional procedure (including coronary artery bypass graft surgery) of any kind within 30 days of the index procedure.

7. Inability to tolerate DAPT with aspirin plus a P2Y12 inhibitor.

8. Known allergies or sensitivities to heparin, antiplatelet drugs, or other anticoagulant therapies, which could not be substituted, including history of major bleeding event in the last 6 months.

9. Allergy or sensitivity to contrast media that cannot be adequately pre-treated prior to the index procedure.

10. Subjects with known history of clinically significant abnormal laboratory findings ≤30 days prior to enrollment including:

1. Neutropenia (<1000 neutrophils/mm3)

2. Thrombocytopenia (<100,000 platelets/mm3)

3. AST, ALT, ALP, or bilirubin > 1.5 times ULN

4. Serum creatinine > 2.0 mg/dL

11. Subject has signs/symptoms of systemic infection/sepsis (temperature ≥ 38.00 Celsius and WBC ≥12,000 cells/µL). If subject has localized infection or infection is adequately treated and controlled, per investigator discretion, patient may be enrolled.

12. Evidence of current clinical instability including:

1. Sustained systolic blood pressure <100 mmHg or cardiogenic shock

2. Acute pulmonary edema or severe congestive heart failure (NYHA class IV)

3. Known or suspected acute myocarditis, pericarditis, endocarditis, or cardiac tamponade

4. Known or suspected dissecting aortic aneurysm

5. Hemodynamically significant valvular heart disease, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, restrictive cardiomyopathy, or congenital heart disease.

6. Requires mechanical circulatory support (e.g., Impella) during index procedure

13. Subject is currently enrolled in another investigational device or drug trial that interferes with the study endpoints.

14. Any concurrent, medical, psychological, or social condition which may significantly interfere with the subject's optimal participation in the study, in the opinion of the investigator.

1. Target lesion is located within a stent (in-stent occlusion).

2. Target vessel has other lesions proximal to the total occlusion with >75% stenosis (based on visual estimate) unless there is planned stenting of the proximal lesion as well.

3. Angiography demonstrates extensive lesion related thrombus (TIMI thrombus grade 3 or 4).

4. Fractured stents in the target vessel.
