Cardiac resynchronization therapy non-responder to responder conversion rate in the MORE-CRT MultiPoint™ Pacing (MPP) trial

EuropacePublished

  • Randomised controlled trial

Authors' conclusion

MultiPoint™ Pacing does not improve CRT response in non-responders to BiVP, even with MPP-AS.

Study context

Population
Echocardiographic non-responders (<15% relative reduction in left ventricular end-systolic volume (LVESV)) after 6 months of standard biventricular pacing cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT)5,850 enrolled
Participants
541 vs 570
Comparison
MPP vs continued biventricular pacing (BiVP) in CRT non-responders
  • MPPn = 541
  • BiVPn = 570reference
Primary endpoint
Conversion rate to echocardiographic response
Follow-up
Additional 6 months

Primary result

As reported in the abstract

Non-responders converted to CRT responders

P = 0.743

Further findings

Conversion rate, ≥30 mm spacing between the two LV pacing sites (MPP-AS) (subgroup)

No significant difference in the conversion rate
