Physiologically Guided VT Ablation

Study Description
Brief Summary:
The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy of VT ablation guided by functional evaluation of the substrate to specifically target the reentry-vulnerable zones in patients with infarct-related VT.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Ventricular Tachycardia Device: Ablation Not Applicable

Detailed Description:

Activation mapping of VT is the gold-standard method for description of the reentrant circuit and identification of its isthmus, however this is uncommonly accomplished due to hemodynamic non-tolerance and limited temporal and spatial resolution. Substrate mapping has been developed as an alternative method to identify the isthmus of post-infarction VT during sinus rhythm (SR). However, it has limited specificity to critical VT sites.

Fundamental work in animal models of healed infarction and humans has shown that the VT isthmus corresponds to locations characterized by marked activation slowing during SR. Furthermore, these locations serve as "anchors" for multiple VT morphologies and cycle lengths.

The hypothesis of this study is that activation mapping during SR or pacing can improve the specifically for identifying the critical VT sites.

The aim of this prospective, multi-center controlled study is to evaluate the utility and limitations of functional mapping for guiding ablation of reentry vulnerably zones for long-term control of VT

Study Design
Layout table for study information
Study Type : Interventional  (Clinical Trial)
Estimated Enrollment : 80 participants
Allocation: Non-Randomized
Intervention Model: Single Group Assignment
Intervention Model Description: This prospective, multi-center controlled study enrolles patients with infarct-related VT refractory to anti-arrhythmic drugs. The outcome of the study group will be compared to historical control group of patients matched for age, LVEF and VT burden.
Masking: None (Open Label)
Primary Purpose: Treatment
Official Title: Physiologically Guided Ablation of Reentry-Vulnerable-Zones for the Treatment of Post-Infarction Ventricular Tachycardia
Actual Study Start Date : October 12, 2014
Estimated Primary Completion Date : September 16, 2019
Estimated Study Completion Date : January 1, 2020
Arms and Interventions
Arm Intervention/treatment
Active Comparator: Study Arm
The left ventricle is mapped during atrial and right or left ventricular pacing (site close to the infarct) at a similar cycle length of 600ms. Radio-frequency ablation is performed selectively in areas of activation slowing (defined as ≤40ms per 5mm while voltage abnormalities and late potentials were not specifically targeted.
Device: Ablation
Cardiac Ablation

No Intervention: Control
Patient who underwent ablation using similar technology and irrigated catheters guided by standard substrate mapping techniques.
Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Composite of VT recurrence or death [ Time Frame: 36 months follow-up ]
