Abbott Laboratories (ABT) said Thursday it has launched a clinical trial aimed at evaluating the impact of earlier intervention using its HeartMate 3 left ventricular assist device, or heart pump, in patients with advanced heart failure.
The study, targeted to enroll up to 850 patients at 75 global sites, will use Abbott's CardioMEMS HF System sensor to monitor pulmonary artery pressures and identify patients who may benefit from early intervention with the HeartMate 3 heart pump, according to Abbott.
Abbott said enrollment will start shortly in the US. The study will assess primary and secondary endpoints after two years and continue monitoring participants for up to five years, the company added.
