Study summary

Cardiogenic shock a serious complication of a heart attack (myocardial infarction). Despite evaluation of several new treatments during the last decade, the mortality in patients with cardiogenic shock still exceeds 50%. An alternative to current management is restoration of the volume of blood pumped by the heart (cardiac output) using a ventricular assist device. In the acute setting this is difficult but can be done using the CorVad device which is a catheter-based, axial flow pump that pumps blood directly from the left ventricle into the circulation thereby restoring blood flow to the failing organs. The hypothesis of the current study is to reduce mortality and morbidity of patients with cardiogenic shock using the CorVad device. The study will be carried out as a randomized multicenter study where eligible patients will be randomized to receive conventional circulatory support or support with the CorVad device and inotropic support if needed. A total of 269 patients are planned

Read the detailed description

The study is a prospective, multicenter trial in patients with AMICS randomized 1:1 to CorVad or current guideline-driven therapy with planned enrollment of 269 patients. Patients comatose after out of hospital cardiac arrest are excluded. Eligible patients are randomized immediately following shock diagnosis. Among patients randomized to receive CorVad, the device is placed prior to angioplasty. The primary endpoint is all-cause mortality at 180 days.The target population of subjects are patients with acute myocardial infarction with cardiogenic shock who need high-risk PCI treatment, and sign an informed consent form (ICF) approved by the Ethics Committee (EC). Subjects who meet the enrolment criteria as judged by the investigator will apply the trial product according to the requirements and will be followed up to 180 days after the procedure.

Go through the criteria one by one — yes, no or not sure — and take the list to your doctor or the study team. Kept in this browser only.

Inclusion criteria

  1. ST segment elevation myocardial infarction of less than 36 hours' duration, confirmed by new onset ST-segment elevation, or emergency angiography demonstrating acute occlusion of coronary artery, and
  2. Cardiogenic shock of less than 24 hours' duration, confirmed by:

    peripheral signs of tissue hypoperfusion (arterial blood lactate ≥2.5mmol/l and/or SvO2 \<55% with a normal PaO2) and systolic blood pressure less than 100mmHg and/or need for vasopressor therapy (dopamine/ norepinephrine or epinephrine), and

  3. of less than 45% visually estimated or by wall motion score index >1,6.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Shock duration N24 hours
  2. Other causes of shock; hypovolemia, sepsis, pulmonary embolism or anaphylaxis
  3. Shock due to mechanical complication to myocardial infarction; papillary muscle rupture, rupture of the ventricular septum or rupture of ventricular free wall.
  4. Severe aorta valve regurgitation/stenosis
  5. Severe peripheral arterial obstructive disease that would preclude Impella device placement
  6. Mechanical aortic valve prosthesis
  7. Already established mechanical circulatory support (Impella or VA-ECMO)
  8. Left ventricular thrombus
  9. Infective endocarditis
  10. Shock due to right ventricular failure
  11. Out of hospital cardiac arrest with persistent Glasgow coma scale b8 after return of spontaneous circulation. Cardiac arrest occurring in ambulance or after arrival to hospital is not an exclusion criterion.
  12. Subject with documented heparin induced thrombocytopenia.
  13. of less than 1 year due to comorbidities.
  14. Mental disorder or language barrier that preclude informed
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(2)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

LVEF (left ventricular ejection fraction)

The share of blood the heart’s main pumping chamber (the left ventricle) pushes out with each beat, measured by an echocardiogram (heart ultrasound) or a MUGA scan. About 50–70% is normal.

Life expectancy

The study doctor’s estimate of how long someone is likely to live. Criteria use it so that people can stay in the study long enough for it to answer its question.

Timeline

Tracking since Sep 25, 2026
ElapsedEstimatedEstimated, not yet reachedSimilar studies: half by the dot; the band is the middle halfHalf of similar studies reached it by the dot; the band is the middle half, from a quarter to three quarters

Start is estimated for Oct 2025; primary completion for Aug 2026, 10 months later.

Of 53 interventional studies with no phase under Shock, Cardiogenic, half reached primary completion within 39 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 24 and three quarters within 55. This study's planned 10 months is below that.

How these figures are worked out, and which studies are left out of them.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Mar 20, 2025, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
