CVRx’s BeAT-HF phase III randomized clinical trial results were published in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology (“JACC”). Results from the trial were used to obtain FDA PMA for the BAROSTIM NEO device for improvement of symptoms in patients with heart failure.
The main results for the study were:
- BAROSTIM NEO is safe to use for patients with HFrEF, with a MANCE-free rate of 97%.
- Clinically-significant improvements in patient-centered symptomatic endpoints as compared to the control group:
- Improved quality of life score by 14.1 (p<0.001) points in MLWHFQ.
- Improved exercise capacity by 60 meters (p<0.001) as measured by the standardized 6-minute hall walk test.
- Improved functional status as assessed by NYHA classification: 65% BAROSTIM NEO versus 31% control patients experienced NYHA class improvement (p<0.001).
- Significant 25% reduction in NT-proBNP (p<0.001).
