Summary

This trial is testing a new treatment against a sham (fake) treatment, to see if the new treatment is better. Neither the patients nor the doctors will know which treatment each patient is receiving.

Who is the study for?
The RESPONDER-HF Trial is for adults over 40 with chronic heart failure who are experiencing symptoms despite current treatment. They must have a history of hospitalization or elevated NT-pro BNP levels, be in NYHA class II-IV, and have stable heart function and management. Participants need to agree to follow-up visits and provide consent. Exclusions include recent cardiac events, other significant health issues, women who can become pregnant, severe mental health conditions, participation in conflicting studies, certain implanted devices or structural heart repairs.
What is being tested?
This trial tests the Corvia Atrial Shunt System against a sham procedure (a fake operation that seems real) to see if it helps people with heart failure feel better or stay out of the hospital. It's randomized (people are put into groups by chance), double-blinded (neither doctors nor patients know who gets the real treatment), and includes echocardiography checks using ICE or TEE methods.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include complications from catheter insertion like bleeding or infection; risks associated with echocardiography such as discomfort or rare complications; adverse reactions related to the shunt device including improper placement or movement after implantation; and general anesthesia risks during procedures.

Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Placebo Group
Group I: TreatmentExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Participants randomized to the treatment arm will undergo a fluoroscopic and intra-cardiac echocardiography (ICE), or transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) guided trans-septal puncture and InterAtrial Shunt Device (IASD) System II implant procedure.
Group II: ControlPlacebo Group1 Intervention
Participants randomized to the control arm will undergo fluoroscopy and intracardiac echocardiography from the femoral vein or transesophageal echocardiography, for examination of the atrial septum and left atrial appendage.
