About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension focused on measuring pediatric cardiology, pulmonary arterial hypertension, dilated cardiomyopathy

Eligibility Criteria

12 Years - 60 Years (Child, Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria: Age: Adolescent (12-17 years) or Adult (age >18 years) Uncorrected CHD (ASD, VSD, PDA, AVSD) with left to right + systemic pulmonary artery pressure or mixed shunting regardless if pulmonary vascular resistance is modifiable or fixed Eisenmenger or Pre-Eisenmenger syndrome, regardless if pulmonary vascular resistance is modifiable or fixed Diagnosed with WHO Group 1 PH Classification pulmonary hypertension associated with congenital heart disease, evidence by the following parameters measured at rest: Mean pulmonary artery pressure (mPAP) ≥ 50 mmHg Pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP) or left ventricular end diastolic pressure (LVEDP) ≤ 15 mmHg. Pulmonary vascular resistance > 3 Wood Units Reactive pulmonary vascular bed, defined as a reduction in mean PAP by 10 mmHg to < 40 mmHg (Sitbon Criteria) or as a decrease of mPAP or the mPAP/mean systemic arterial pressure (mSAP) ratio by ≥ 20% (Borst Criteria) using inhaled nitric oxide. (Seemingly) fixed pulmonary vascular resistance, not modifiable with oxygen, NO or other medications.

    Outcomes

    Primary Outcome Measures

    Change in pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR)
    The primary efficacy endpoint is a binary variable. For patients with a baseline pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) >1000 dynes·s·cm-5, success is defined by an absolute reduction in PVR of ≥300 dynes·s·cm-5 at 24 weeks. For patients with a baseline PVR ≤1000 dynes·s·cm-5, success is a 30% reduction in PVR at 24 weeks.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    Six Minute Walk Test Distance
    Change from baseline of six minute walk test distance (meters) at Week 12.
    Change From Baseline to Week 12 in Borg Dyspnea Score
    The Borg Dyspnea score is a self-rating scale to evaluate the severity of dyspnea (from 0 "no shortness of breath at all" to 10 "very, very severe / maximal" shortness of breath).
    NYHA Class change from Baseline at Week 12
    New York Heart Association Class (NYHA) class: minimum I; maximum IV ( worse)
    Change From Baseline to Week 12 in Ejection Fraction
    Ejection Fraction (%) measured by transthoracic echocardiography
    Change From Baseline to Week 12 in Left Ventricular Volumes
    Left Ventricular Volumes measured by transthoracic echocardiography
    Change From Baseline of the Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire (KCCQ)
    KCCQ scores for quality of life are scaled from 0 to 100 and summarized in 25-point ranges: 0 to 24: very poor to poor; 25 to 49: poor to fair; 50 to 74: fair to good; and 75 to 100: good to excellent

    Intervention Name(s)
    IntelliStent
    Intervention Description
    Staged implantation of IntelliStent. The system comprises a nitinol self-expanding stent with a hollow element delivered over-the-wire into the main pulmonary artery or its left and right branches, using an 18 Fr transfemoral introducer sheath. The stent consists of two sections, one with a larger diameter and one with a smaller diameter, available in 6 sizes suitable for vessel sizes ranging from 20mm to 30 mm. Additional smaller sizes are currently under development.
