Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Efficacy 6 Month Incidence of HF Related Hospitalizations (HFH) or All-cause Mortality

    The primary efficacy endpoint was the 6-month incidence of HF related hospitalizations or all-cause mortality in the modified Intent-to-Treat (mITT) population. As per the approved protocol/CIP, for study success the upper confidence bound of the observed event rate in the mITT population was required to be less than the performance goal (PG) of 0.43 events per patient 6-month, or equivalently, the corresponding p-value from the hypothesis test of 6-month incidence rate compared to PG was less than 0.025. Furthermore, the observed incidence rate was required to be less than 0.37. The 6-month incidence rate was derived using a Poisson regression with the number of events as the dependent variable and the exposure time as an offset term. In these analyses, a subject's exposure time was defined as the time to death, early study discontinuation, or 6 months (whichever occurred first).

    6 months

  • Safety: Freedom From Device/System Related Complication

    A device/system related complication (DSRC) is defined as an AE that is, or is possibly, related to the device/system (Cordella PA Sensor or electronic components) and is either treated invasively (other than intramuscular medication or diagnostic RHC) or results in subject´s death or explant of the device. The first primary safety endpoint describes freedom from a DSRC through 6 months and was tested against the null rate of 90%.

    6 months

  • Safety: Freedom From Pressure Sensor Failure

    A pressure sensor failure (PSF) occurs when the sensor malfunctions to the point that no readings can be obtained from the sensor after all attempts are exhausted including troubleshooting the system to rule out any problems with the electronic components. The second primary safety endpoint describes freedom from Pressure Sensor Failure through 6 months, it was tested against the null rate of 95%.

    6 months

Secondary Outcomes (18)

  • HF Hospitalizations

    6 Months prior to implant and 6 months post implant

  • HF Hospitalizations or Emergency Department/Hospital Outpatient IV Diuretic Visits.

Study Arms (1)

Treatment Arm

OTHER

Pulmonary Artery Pressure Guided Heart Failure Management (PAPGHFM) and Guideline Directed Medical Therapy (GDMT) considering daily Pulmonary Artery Pressure (PAP) measurements and vital signs collected by Cordella Heart Failure System (CHFS).

Device: Cordella™ Pulmonary Artery Sensor System

Interventions

The Cordella PA Sensor System (CorPASS) is intended to measure, record, and transmit pulmonary artery pressure (PAP) data from NYHA Class III heart failure patients at home to clinicians for assessment and patient-centered heart failure management and comprises of seven subsystems that operate together to take daily Pulmonary Artery Pressure (PAP) readings at a patient's home and transmit the results to a care provider for evaluation. 1. Cordella Sensor 2. Cordella Delivery System 3. myCordella Patient Reader 4. Reader Dock 5. Cordella Calibration Equipment (CalEQ) 6. myCordella Hub 7. Cordella Data Analysis Platform (CDAP)

Limitations and Caveats

* The major limitation of PROACTIVE-HF is its open-label, single arm design and the absence of a concurrent control arm, though endpoint assessment was blinded and performed by an independent adjudication committee * There are known limitations of interpretation of KCCQ in unblinded studies. * As prior studies utilized supine PAP for remote management of HF, clinician lack of familiarity with orthostatic PAP physiology may have influenced decision making.
