NCT02071511

Brief Summary

Study hypothesis: With optimal medical therapy and repeated ablations, an additional renal denervation may have protective effects in terms of vegetative intrinsic activity and lead to a significant reduction in VT Burdens. Study design: Multicenter, randomized, prospective, single-blind clinical trial.

We at Medtronic certainly appreciate the devastating impact that the results of the SYMPLICITY HTN 3 trial had on research progress for renal denervation, including your trial. Therefore, based on the lack of recent progress, it is no longer practical to maintain our agreement and we are hereby terminating our support for the trial.
