Cardioverter DefIbriIlator PlacEMent for priMary Prevention of Sudden cArdiac Death in Patients Older Than 70 Years: A Randomized Controlled Trial

Обзор

The primary objective of DILEMMA study is to assess whether the "heart failure optimal therapy alone (HFOT)" strategy is non inferior to the "HFOT+ICD" strategy in terms of overall survival 48 months after randomization, in patients ≥ 70 years with an ICD indication for primary prevention of SCD whether there is an indication for cardiac resynchronization therapy or not.

Подробное описание

Rationale Although not recognized by guidelines, there is no available data demonstrating the benefit of Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator (ICD) for primary prevention strategy of Sudden Cardiac Death (SCD) in elderly. Nevertheless, ICD are currently implanted in this population by extending the results obtained in randomized trials involving younger subjects to the elderly. Finally, if the absence of implantation in the elderly was not inferior to the implantation of such a device, the non-implantation would avoid the device-related complications and decrease the health costs.

Main objective The primary objective of DILEMMA study is to assess whether the "heart failure optimal therapy alone (HFOT)" strategy is non inferior to the "HFOT+ICD" strategy in terms of overall survival 48 months after randomization, in patients ≥ 70 years with an ICD indication for primary prevention of SCD whether there is an indication for cardiac resynchronization therapy or not.

Design This is a 2-arm parallel non-inferiority, randomized, open label, multicenter trial. 730 patients will be included over 4 years. Follow up will last 4 years.

Вмешательства

• Устройство ICD implantation
  This group will undergo an ICD implantation (type and manufacturer at the discretion of the local investigator) in addition to heart failure medical therapy optimization. Patients of the "HFOT+ICD" group will be scheduled for ICD implantation.
• Устройство No ICD implantation
  Patients of the "HFOT alone" group will not undergo ICD implantation (except if they develop sustained ventricular arrhythmias and fulfil for secondary prevention ICD implantation), and continue with medical therapy optimization only.
