Boston Scientific Corporation (BSX Quick QuoteBSX - Free Report) recently presented favorable six-month results from the ongoing pivotal MODULAR ATP clinical trial of the mCRM System — the first modular cardiac rhythm management system that consists of the EMBLEM Subcutaneous Implantable Defibrillator or S-ICD System and the EMPOWER Leadless Pacemaker. The findings were concurrently published in the New England Journal of Medicine and presented at the Heart Rhythm Society's annual meeting, Heart Rhythm 2024.The recent development will likely bolster Boston Scientific’s Cardiovascular business.About mCRM SystemThe device is designed to communicate wirelessly to coordinate painless intracardiac anti-tachycardia pacing (ATP) therapy, provide rate-responsive bradycardia pacing support and prevent sudden cardiac death without the use of leads in the heart or under the sternum.The company anticipates FDA approval of the mCRM System in 2025. Study DetailsThe trial assessed not only the safety and functionality of the EMPOWER LP as a stand-alone pacemaker but also the efficacy of the EMBLEM S-ICD System in wirelessly requesting the LP to administer ATP treatment. The trial's results satisfied all predetermined six-month safety and efficacy criteria.The trial's results met all pre-established six-month safety and effectiveness endpoints. They showed that the EMPOWER Leadless Pacemaker was implanted with a major complication-free rate of 97.5%, that communication between the EMBLEM S-ICD System and the EMPOWER Leadless Pacemaker was successful in 98.8% of cases, that anti-tachycardia pacing was successful in 61.3% of cases and that no patient requested that anti-tachycardia pacing or bradycardia pacing be turned off because of pain or discomfort.Study Outcome BenefitsBoston Scientific observed outstanding overall clinical performance of the mCRM System in this trial, including a high rate of successful communication from the S-ICD to the leadless pacemaker and a low rate of serious leadless pacemaker problems. These findings are significant because the high percentages of communication success and pain-free termination of spontaneous arrhythmia episodes suggest a potential upgrade pathway for patients currently implanted with an S-ICD who require ATP or pacing.Image Source: Zacks Investment ResearchInstead of exposing all patients to the risks of more invasive approaches, such as placing leads into the heart or tunneling them under the sternum to provide therapies they may not need, these findings suggest physicians may be able to tailor therapy to the patient's specific needs and health.Industry ProspectsPer a report by Grand View Research, the global cardiac rhythm management devices market size was estimated at $16.43 billion in 2023 and is expected to register a CAGR of 6.3% from 2024 to 2030. The growing prevalence of various cardiovascular diseases, such as arrhythmia and atrial fibrillation, among others.Other Notable HighlightsIn February 2024, Boston Scientific gained the FDA’s approval for the FARAPULSE Pulsed Field Ablation (PFA) system, which is indicated for the isolation of pulmonary veins in the treatment of drug-refractory, recurrent, symptomatic, paroxysmal (i.e., intermittent) atrial fibrillation. The system represents a unique new alternative to standard-of-care thermal ablation treatment.Earlier in 2023, Boston Scientific completed enrollment in the first phase of the ADVANTAGE AF clinical trial, which is studying the FARAPULSE PFA system for treating patients with drug-refractory, symptomatic, persistent AF. The company also commenced enrollment in a second phase of the study to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the adjunctive use of the FARAPOINT PFA Catheter for cavotricuspid isthmus ablations — a procedure used to treat atrial flutter.
