About this trial

This multi-center, prospective, randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled study aims to investigate whether withdrawal of aspirin from the antithrombotic regimen in patients supported with the CH-VAD pump is non-inferior to the standard antithrombotic regimen of vitamin K antagonist combined with aspirin in terms of safety and efficacy.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Age ≥18 years old;

Implanted with the CH-VAD pump for advanced heart failure, and the CH-VAD pump is the first implanted left ventricular assist device;

Able to understand the study purpose, voluntarily participate and sign the informed consent form, and willing to comply with the study procedures and follow-up requirements.

Disqualifiers

Requirement for additional temporary or permanent mechanical circulatory support after LVAD implantation;

Requirement for physician-mandated antiplatelet therapy after implantation due to medical history, surgical history, concomitant surgical procedures, or other conditions, including mandated presence or absence of antiplatelet agent;

Occurrence of primary endpoint events prior to randomization (within 2-7 days after implantation);

Inability to take oral medications post-implant through 7 days;

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Survival free from major hemocompatibility-related adverse events at 12 months post-implantation

Major hemocompatibility-related adverse events include stroke, suspected or confirmed pump thrombosis, peripheral arterial embolism, myocardial infarction, aortic root thrombosis, and non-surgical major bleeding. Note: Stroke includes ischemic stroke and hemorrhagic stroke. Non-surgical major bleeding is defined as major bleeding events occurring more than 14 days after implantation, including Type 3-5 bleeding events and intracranial hemorrhage that does not meet the definition of hemorrhagic stroke.

Time frame
12 months post implantation

Secondary outcomes

1

Key Secondary Outcome: Incidence of major thromboembolic events at 12 months post-implantation

Major thromboembolic events include ischemic stroke, suspected or confirmed pump thrombosis, peripheral arterial embolism, myocardial infarction, and aortic root thrombosis.

Time frame
12 months post implantation
2

Incidence of non-surgical bleeding

including non-surgical major bleeding and hemorrhagic stroke

Time frame
12 months post implantation
3
