Detailed Study Protocol Parameters |
Study Objectives |
This is a single arm, multi-center, prospective, new enrollment study. The objectives of this study are the following: (1) To demonstrate safety of the AMPLATZER PFO Occluder by assessing the short-term (30-day) rate of device- or procedure-related serious adverse events (including those that led to death) (2) To demonstrate that the AMPLATZER PFO Occluder is effective by assessing the rate of recurrent ischemic stroke through 5 years (3) To demonstrate effectiveness of the training program for new operators
|
Study Population |
Patients over the age of 18 years and less than 60 years who have experienced a cryptogenic stroke diagnosed by a neurologist in the 547 days prior to consent and have a patent foramen ovale diagnosed by transesophageal echocardiogram.
|
Sample Size |
The overall sample size for this trial is 1214 subjects, which is driven by the primary effectiveness endpoint. The overall sample size accounts for 25% attrition over 5 years. To ensure that enrollment is balanced across sites, no investigational site will be allowed to enroll more than 20% of the maximum sample size (242 subjects).
The sample size is estimated to have adequate power to test the primary effectiveness endpoint. The assumed primary effectiveness endpoint event rate is 2.2% and the performance goal is 3.9%. Using a one-sided 2.5% significance level, 910 subjects are required to have 80% power to reject the null hypothesis with the exact binomial method. Assuming 25% attrition over 5 years, a total of 1214 subjects is required.
The sample size is estimated to have adequate power to test the primary safety endpoint. The assumed primary safety endpoint event rate is 2.07% and the performance goal is 4.14%. Using a one- sided 2.5% significance level, 653 subjects are required to obtain 80% power to reject the null hypothesis with the exact binomial method. Due to the acute nature of this endpoint, no attrition is assumed.

Key Study Endpoints |
Primary Safety: Device- or procedure-related serious adverse events (as adjudicated by a Clinical Events Committee) through 30 days, including: Atrial Fibrillation Pulmonary Embolism Deep Vein Thrombosis Device Thrombus Device Erosion Device Embolization Ischemic stroke if subject was not successfully implanted with a device Hemorrhagic Stroke Major Bleeding requiring transfusion, or surgical or endovascular intervention Vascular Access Site Complication requiring surgical intervention Device- or Procedure-Related Serious Adverse Event leading to death
Primary Effectiveness: 5-year rate of recurrent ischemic stroke Ischemic stroke is defined as acute focal neurological deficit presumed to be due to focal ischemia, and either 1) symptoms persisting 24 hours or greater, or 2) symptoms persisting less than 24 hours but associated with MR or CT findings of a new, neuroanatomically relevant, cerebral infarct. Descriptive Endpoints: Rate of stroke of unknown cause (determined by ASCOD adjudication) through each annual follow-up Rate of Transient Ischemic Attack (TIA)1 through each annual follow-up Rate of atrial fibrillation through each annual follow-up Rate of pulmonary embolism through each annual follow-up – the rate will be descriptively compared to the rates observed in the randomized groups in the RESPECT investigational device exemption (IDE) trial Rate of deep vein thrombosis through each annual follow-up – the rate will be descriptively compared to the rate observed in the randomized groups in the RESPECT IDE trial Rate of venous thromboembolism events (DVT or PE) through each annual follow-up – the rate will be descriptively compared to the rate observed in the randomized groups in the RESPECT IDE trial Rate of device thrombus through each annual follow-up Rate of device erosion through each annual follow-up Rate of device embolization through each annual follow-up
Rate of ischemic stroke through each annual follow-up Rate of hemorrhagic stroke through each annual follow-up Rate of atrial flutter through each annual follow-up Rate of paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia requiring treatment through each annual follow-up Antithrombotic medication (single antiplatelet, dual antiplatelet, warfarin, novel oral anticoagulant, other) use at each follow-up SF-12 quality of life physical and mental component score at baseline, 1 month, 6 months and 1 year Health state utility values from EQ-5D at baseline, 1 month, 6 months and 1 year Effective closure – Grade 0 or 1 maximal shunt through the PFO at rest and/or Valsalva as assessed by transthoracic echocardiogram (TTE) or transesophageal echocardiogram (TEE) at 1 year Complete closure – Grade 0 maximal shunt through the PFO at rest and/or Valsalva as assessed by TTE or TEE at 1 year Technical success – Successful delivery and release of the AMPLATZER PFO Occluder for subjects in whom the delivery system entered the body Procedural success – Successful implantation of the AMPLATZER PFO Occluder with no reported in-hospital serious adverse events (SAEs) for subjects in whom the delivery system entered the body Training effectiveness - will be summarized by reporting the procedure-related SAE rate for new operators

Follow-up Visits and Length of Follow-up |
Subjects will be followed for 5 years post implant.

Interim or Final Data Summary |
Interim Results |
Primary Safety Endpoint: The Safety hypothesis will be assessed once all eligible subjects have met 30-day follow-up. As of this report, 23 subjects have had 24 Serious Adverse Events (20 atrial fibrillation, 2 deep vein thrombosis, 1 vascular hematoma, and 1 device thrombosis) that counts towards the primary safety endpoint. Serious Adverse Events: 142 events have been reported as Serious Adverse Events, 47 of these were adjudicated as device related. The device-related events were arrhythmia (n=2), atrial fibrillation (n=22), atrial flutter (n=3), chest pain – non cardiac (n=1), endocarditis (n=1), chest pain/discomfort (n=2), device embolization (n=1), ischemic stroke (n=3), migraine (n=1), paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia (n=1), pulmonary embolism (n=4), Reintervention for Residual Shunt/device Removal (n=2), thrombus on device (n=2), and transient ischemic attack (n=2) and one unclassified event.
Effectiveness Results Primary Effectiveness Endpoint: The Effectiveness hypothesis will be assessed once all eligible subjects have completed 5-year followup. As of this report, 8 events have been adjudicated as an Ischemic Stroke. These events will count towards the primary effectiveness endpoint.
