WAKEFIELD, Mass., Dec. 19, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Ablative Solutions Inc., today announced that the TARGET BP I Pivotal Trial evaluating alcohol-mediated renal denervation with the Peregrine System™ Kit met its primary endpoint, showing a statistically significant difference in 24-hour Ambulatory Blood Pressure between treatment and sham procedure at 3 months. The TARGET BP I trial evaluated the safety and efficacy of the Peregrine System Kit to treat patients with uncontrolled hypertension while taking anti-hypertensive medications. The Peregrine System Kit, comprised of a patented infusion catheter and dehydrated alcohol, was used during a minimally invasive procedure to ablate the sympathetic nerves surrounding the renal (kidney) arteries to reduce blood pressure. “We are happy to announce the completion of the primary analysis of this landmark trial and are excited for the potential of alcohol-mediated renal denervation as a treatment option addressing the widespread public health issue of uncontrolled hypertension”, stated David Kandzari, M.D., co-principal investigator, chief of Piedmont Heart Institute and chief scientific officer for Piedmont Healthcare. “We look forward to sharing these data in the coming months”. The TARGET BP I Trial enrolled patients with uncontrolled hypertension despite being prescribed 2 – 5 antihypertension medications. A total of 301 patients were randomized to either receive treatment with the Peregrine System Kit or sham procedure. The study remained blinded through 6 months follow-up.
