Summary of Clinical Results
1
The AdaptivCRT™ clinical study investigated the safety and efficacy of the AdaptivCRT feature, which
provides patient-specific automatic and dynamic selection of left ventricular (LV) or biventricular (BiV)
cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) pacing and adjustments of atrio-ventricular (AV) and interventricular (VV) delays based on periodic evaluation of intrinsic electrical conduction. The study
compared results from subjects using the AdaptivCRT feature to those of subjects with CRT using
echocardiographic (echo) optimized CRT parameters. This study is also referred to as the Adaptive
Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy (Adaptive CRT) Study in the medical literature.
1 Study Purpose
The purpose of the AdaptivCRT clinical study was to demonstrate safety and effectiveness of the
AdaptivCRT feature.
2 Study Scope, Design, and Methods
The AdaptivCRT clinical study was a prospective, multi-site, randomized, double-blinded, worldwide
Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) clinical study. Subjects were randomized in a 2:1 ratio to receive
the AdaptivCRT feature (AdaptivCRT group) or echo-optimized CRT (Echo-Optimized Control group).
Randomization occurred after a successful implant procedure, which was defined as implantation of
market-released right atrial (RA), right ventricular (RV) and LV leads, and a Medtronic CRT defibrillator
(CRT-D) device (Consulta®, Maximo II®, or Concerto II®).
Software for AdaptivCRT was provided via an enabling kit to install or remove the AdaptivCRT feature
from the Medtronic 2090 Programmer. Once installed on a programmer, the AdaptivCRT software was
used to inject the AdaptivCRT feature into study devices.
Clinical data were collected at baseline, implant, randomization and follow-up visits occurring at 1, 3, 6,
and 12 months post-randomization, with further follow-up visits required every six months thereafter until
approval is granted from the US FDA or official study closure, whichever is first. Data were also collected
upon system modification, notification of adverse events or technical observations, study exits, deviations,
and deaths. Data collected included demographics, medical history, device interrogations, Holter
monitoring, echocardiograms (echo), assessment of clinical and functional status, as well as quality of life.
Primary objectives compared AdaptivCRT to echo-optimization using the Packer Clinical Composite
Score1 (CCS) as a measure of patient outcome and aortic velocity time integral (AoVTI) as a measure of
cardiac performance. AoVTI was measured under each of two parameter settings: AV and VV settings
determined by AdaptivCRT and AV and VV settings determined by echo-optimization. The agreement
between these paired AoVTI measurements was evaluated using the Concordance Correlation
Coefficient (CCC) with each subject serving as his/her own control. Inappropriate AV or VV delay settings
related to the AdaptivCRT feature served as the primary safety endpoint for this study. An AV or VV delay
setting was evaluated for appropriateness if a delay varied by more than 60 ms during a 28-day period.
The primary study objectives evaluated data from randomization through the 6 month follow-up visit.

4 Study Objectives
Primary Objectives
The three primary objectives of the AdaptivCRT clinical study were designed to demonstrate that:
The percent of AdaptivCRT subjects improved in their Clinical Composite Score was at least as
good as the percent of Echo-Optimized Control subjects improved.
Cardiac performance was similar when using AdaptivCRT versus echo-optimized settings.
AdaptivCRT did not result in inappropriate AV or VV delay settings.

Secondary Objectives
2
Secondary objectives focused on other clinically relevant outcomes for heart failure patients and were
intended to corroborate the results of the primary objectives. Secondary objectives were planned to be
tested in a hierarchical fashion, should all three primary objectives be met. The following secondary
objectives were pre-specified to demonstrate that:
The right ventricular pacing percentage from implant to six months post-randomization was lower
in the AdaptivCRT™ group than in the Echo-Optimized Control group.
The change in left ventricular end systolic volume index (LVESVi) from baseline to six months in
the AdaptivCRT group was at least as good as the change in the Echo-Optimized Control group.
The change in left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) from baseline to six months in the
AdaptivCRT group was at least as good as the change in the Echo-Optimized Control group.
The change in NYHA classification from baseline to six months in the AdaptivCRT group was at
least as good as the change in the Echo-Optimized Control group.
The change in distance walked during the six minute hall walk from baseline to six months in the
AdaptivCRT group was at least as good as the change in the Echo-Optimized Control group.
The change in quality of life (QoL), measured by the Minnesota Living With Heart Failure
Questionnaire2 (MLWHF), from baseline to six months in the AdaptivCRT group was at least as
good as the change in the Echo-Optimized Control group.
5 Results
The first enrollment occurred on November 16, 2009, and the first use of the AdaptivCRT feature
occurred on November 24, 2009. Enrollments ended in December 2010. The results presented in this
report include data collected at sites on or before July 8, 2011, with site data received in the database by
August 3, 2011.
Patient Accountability
A total of 522 subjects were enrolled at 94 sites, including 291 enrollments at 55 sites in the United
States, 162 enrollments at 25 sites in Europe/Central Asia, 30 enrollments at 6 sites in Australia, 29
enrollments at 5 sites in Canada, 7 enrollments at 2 sites in Japan, and 3 enrollments at 1 site in Hong
Kong. Of the 522 enrolled subjects, 521 completed a baseline visit. Of these 521 subjects, 491 subjects
had a successful implant. Of the 491 successfully implanted subjects, 478 were randomized. Of these,
318 subjects were randomized to the AdaptivCRT group and 160 subjects were randomized to the EchoOptimized Control group. The distribution of subject enrollments and follow-up by randomized group is
listed in Figure 1: The mean follow-up duration from enrollment for all 522 subjects was 9.2 ± 3.9 months
(range from 0.0 to 19.7 months).

Subject met eligibility for the study during the screening process and had a documented NYHA classification of Class III within 30
days prior to enrollment, and was assessed at the baseline visit as NYHA Class I.
Four of the five subjects met eligibility for the study during the screening process and had a documented NYHA classification of
Class III within 30 days prior to enrollment. One subject had a NYHA Class II documented prior to enrollment as well as at the
baseline visit. Medtronic did not learn of this until after the subject had been randomized into the study, therefore this subject
remained in the study and continued follow-up in accordance with intent-to-treat principles. A study deviation was reported.

Figure 2 shows the number of subjects included in the analysis of the primary objectives. Every subject
was assigned a CCS which by definition uses a last observation carried forward (LOCF) methodology.
Clinical Composite Score values that were missing at 6-month post-randomization were determined by
carrying forward an NYHA Class or Patient Global Assessment measurement made at a visit prior to the
6 month visit.

1. Clinical Composite Score - To demonstrate that the percent of AdaptivCRT™ subjects improved in
their CCS was at least as good as the percent of Echo-Optimized Control subjects improved in their CCS.
The Clinical Investigation Plan pre-specified that a comparison would be made between the two groups
based on the percentage of subjects with an improved response. In the AdaptivCRT group 73.6%
(234/318) of subjects had an improved CCS versus 72.5% (116/160) of subjects in the Echo-Optimized
Control group. The p-value of the statistical test evaluating whether the AdaptivCRT group is non-inferior
to the Echo-Optimized Control group within a 12% margin is 0.0007. Figure 3 shows the distribution of
CCS by study group.
Figure 3: Clinical Composite Score Distribution at 6 Months
Figure 4 shows the non-inferiority comparison of the improved CCS with the AdaptivCRT group having a
1.1% higher percent of subjects with an improved CCS compared to the Echo-Optimized Control group.
The 95% confidence interval for the difference was -6.9% to 9.1%. As demonstrated by the lower bound
of the confidence interval being greater than the non-inferiority margin of -12%, the percent improved for
AdaptivCRT subjects was non-inferior to the Echo-Optimized Control subjects and, therefore, this primary
objective was met.

2. Cardiac Performance- To demonstrate that cardiac performance was sufficiently similar when using
AdaptivCRT™ versus echo-optimized settings.
Two separate hypothesis tests were performed, one using randomization measurements and the other
using 6-month measurements. Subjects randomized to the Echo-Optimized Control group only had
manual echo-optimization at the 6-month visit and therefore are not included in the 6-month analysis.
At randomization, as seen in Figure 5, the paired AoVTI measurements follow the line of equality closely
indicating the AoVTI measured with echo-optimized device settings and the AoVTI measured with
AdaptivCRT device settings were similar. The CCC at randomization of 0.93 measures the agreement of
the data with this ideal line of equality and has a lower confidence interval of 0.91 which is higher than the
pre-specified minimum objective performance criteria of 0.82 (p<0.0001).

At 6 months post-randomization, as seen in Figure 6, the paired AoVTI measurements follow the line of
equality closely indicating the AoVTI measured with echo-optimized device settings and the AoVTI
measured with AdaptivCRT™ device settings were similar for subjects randomized to the AdaptivCRT
group. The CCC at 6 months of 0.90 measures the agreement of the data with the ideal line of equality,
and has a lower confidence interval of 0.87 which is higher than the pre-specified minimum objective
performance criteria of 0.82 (p<0.0001).
Since the 95% lower confidence bound of the CCC at both randomization and six months exceeds the
pre-specified limit of 0.82, it can be concluded that cardiac performance was sufficiently similar when
using AdaptivCRT versus echo-optimized settings and, therefore, this primary objective was met.
Figure 6: Concordance Correlation Coefficient at 6 Months
3. AdaptivCRT™ Safety - To demonstrate that AdaptivCRT does not result in inappropriate AV or VV
delay settings.
All consecutive 28-day periods were evaluated for each subject to determine if any AV or VV delays had a
range exceeding 60 ms. A medical review panel of independent physicians was in place to evaluate all
occurrences of wide AV or VV delay ranges for appropriateness of the AV or VV delay variations.
Information from device diagnostics and other study data were to be used for these evaluations. A subject
experienced a safety event if the subject had an inappropriate AV or VV delay setting during a 28-day
period with a wide delay range. Table 3 reports the results of this analysis for the subjects randomized to
the AdaptivCRT group that had at least one post-randomization save-to-disk. No subjects had an AV or
VV delay range that exceeded 60 ms within a 28-day period. Based on subjects’ AdaptivCRT feature
data, no subjects were identified for further review by the medical review panel. There was no evidence
that the AdaptivCRT feature resulted in inappropriate AV or VV delay settings and, therefore, this primary
objective was met.

Secondary Objectives
1. Right Ventricular Pacing Percentage - To demonstrate that the right ventricular pacing percentage
from implant to six months post-randomization was lower in the AdaptivCRT™ group than in the EchoOptimized Control group.
Subjects with the AdaptivCRT feature could be provided CRT therapy via two different types of ventricular
pacing, with the algorithm dynamically selecting either adaptive BiV (RV+LV) pacing or adaptive LV only
pacing that is synchronized to the intrinsic RV contraction. Subjects in the Echo-Optimized Control group
received CRT therapy through BiV (RV+LV) pacing.
Table 4 provides the total percent ventricular pacing, percent LV only pacing, and percent BiV (RV+LV)
pacing from implant to 6 months for all randomized subjects in each group of the analysis cohort.
Subjects in both groups received CRT therapy a similar percentage of the time. The combination of
adaptive BiV and adaptive LV pacing resulted in total percent ventricular pacing of 95.5% on average in
the AdaptivCRT group versus 95.1% in the Echo-Optimized Control group. The observed mean percent
BiV (RV+LV) pacing through 6 months was 51.3% in the AdaptivCRT group, and 95.1% in the EchoOptimized Control group. The observed difference in mean percent BiV (RV+LV) pacing between the two
groups was 43.8%, and the difference was significant (p < 0.0001). Thus, it can be concluded that
subjects with the AdaptivCRT feature did, on average, have lower percent RV pacing over 6 months postrandomization than the Echo-Optimized Control subjects and, therefore, this secondary objective was
met.
Table 4: Summary of Percent Pacing in First 6 Months
Figure 7 illustrates the distribution of LV-only pacing and BiV pacing for the subjects in the AdaptivCRT
group with ventricular pacing data. The figure shows what percent of total ventricular pacing was adaptive
BiV pacing and LV only pacing displayed as one stacked bar for each subject. The AdaptivCRT feature
was effective at reducing RV pacing in a broad subset of subjects. There were 72% of subjects that
experienced LV only pacing at least 1% of the time, 66% that experienced LV only pacing at least 10% of
the time, and 47% that experienced LV only pacing at least 50% of the time.

Table 5 provides the LVESVi scores at baseline and 6 months for all randomized subjects in the analysis
cohort as well as a comparison of the mean change in LVESVi over that time frame. In both the
AdaptivCRT and Echo-Optimized Control groups, LVESVi, on average, was reduced over the 6-months
post-randomization. The observed difference in mean change in LVESVi between the two groups was 2.3
with a 95% confidence interval of -2.8 to 7.4, and the difference was found to be below the non-inferiority
margin of 15 mL/m2 (p <0.0001), therefore, this secondary objective was met.

baseline to six months in the AdaptivCRT™ group was at least as good as the change in the EchoOptimized Control group.
Table 6 provides the LVEF measurements at baseline and 6 months for all randomized subjects in the
analysis cohort as well as a comparison of the mean change in LVEF over that time frame. In both the
AdaptivCRT and Echo-Optimized Control groups, LVEF, on average, tended to increase over the 6
months post-randomization. The observed difference in mean change in LVEF between the two groups
was 1.0 with a 95% confidence interval of -1.2 to 3.1, and the difference was found to be above the noninferiority margin of -2.5% (p = 0.0009), therefore, this secondary objective was met.

Table 7 providesthe NYHA classification at baseline and 6 months for all randomized subjects in the
analysis cohort as well as a comparison of the mean change in NYHA classification over that time frame.
The observed difference in mean change in NYHA class (AdaptivCRT minus Echo-Optimized Control)
was -0.15 with a 95% confidence interval of -0.30 to 0.00, and the difference was found to be below the
non-inferiority margin of 0.30 (p < 0.0001), therefore, this secondary objective was met.

minute hall walk from baseline to six months in the AdaptivCRT™ group was at least as good as the
change in the Echo-Optimized Control group.
Table 8 providesthe six-minute hall walk performance for each group at baseline and 6 months, as well
as a comparison of the mean change in performance over that time frame. Each group showed an
observed mean improvement in hall walk distance (42.4 meters in the AdaptivCRT group and 29.0 meters
in the Echo-Optimized Control group). The observed difference in mean performance between the two
groups was 13.4 meters with a 95% confidence interval of -8.9 to 35.7 meters, and the difference was
found to be above the non-inferiority margin of -30m (p = 0.0002), therefore, this secondary objective was
met.
Table 8: Change in Six-minute Hall Walk from Baseline to 6 Months
6. Changes in Quality of Life - To demonstrate that the change in QoL, measured by the Minnesota
Living With Heart Failure Questionnaire, from baseline to six months in the AdaptivCRT group was at
least as good as the change in the Echo-Optimized Control group.
Table 9 provides the MLWHF results for each group at baseline and 6 months, as well as a comparison of
the mean change in overall score over that time frame. As a reduction in the MLWHF score indicates an
improvement, both groups showed observed improvement in Quality of Life (QoL). The observed
AdaptivCRT to Echo-Optimized Control group difference in mean change in score between groups was -
1.7 (meaning the observed reduction in QoL score was 1.7 units greater in the AdaptivCRT group than in
the Echo-Optimized Control group) with a 95% confidence interval of -6.3 to 2.8, and the difference was
found to be below the non-inferiority margin of 5.1 (p = 0.002), therefore, this secondary objective was
met.

6 Adverse Events Summary
Adverse events were classified for Seriousness, Complications/Observations, and Relatedness. A
complication was defined as an adverse event that results in death, involves any termination of significant
device function, or requires invasive intervention. An observation was defined as any adverse event that
is not a complication. System relatedness was assessed with respect to device, leads, implant tool,
investigational algorithm, investigational software, and programmers. The Global Adverse Event
Adjudication Committee (GAEAC) was permitted to select more than one relatedness for an individual
adverse event. Therefore a single adverse event can contribute to multiple classifications.
There were a total of 280 subjects who experienced a total of 659 events after randomization. The
GAEAC reviewed and adjudicated all of these adverse events in the subject cohort. Of the 659 events,
79.7% (525 events) were not related to the system or procedures for implanting or modifying the device
and leads, and 45.8% (302 events) were classified as observations which required no invasive action.
There were no unanticipated adverse device effects (UADEs) observed. Analysis comparing time to first
event and time to first complication showed no statistical difference between the AdaptivCRT™ and EchoOptimized Control groups for any adverse events or complications, respectively. Table 10 summarizes
the adverse events by relatedness and Table 11 summarizes the adverse events by preferred term, by
highest incidence of event rate, with cardiac failure the most frequently occurring event (107 events in 80
subjects).

Two subjects had an AE associated with a crossover. GAEAC felt that this was unknown relatedness to the software and algorithm
due to the fact that the subject was never re-challenged with the algorithm. One subject had an AE associated with a death. GAEAC
felt that this was unknown relatedness to the software and algorithm due to a lack of data available. The last device interrogation
collected from this subject was on the date of randomization so there was no additional algorithm data to review and thus no way to
conclusively determine relatedness.

7 Death Summary
A total of 26 deaths were observed in the study, 25 of which occurred after randomization where subjects
were randomized in a 2:1 ratio to receive the AdaptivCRT™ feature (AdaptivCRT group) or echooptimized CRT (Echo-Optimized Control group). The one death that occurred prior to randomization was
considered related to the implant procedure due to the timing of death in proximity to the implant. Of the
25 total post-randomization deaths (18 AdaptivCRT group, 7 Echo-Optimized Control group), 2 were
considered related to the implant procedure due to the timing of death in proximity to the implant and one
was considered as having unknown relatedness to the device, RV lead, investigational software, and
investigational algorithm. For that death, a device interrogation was not collected at the time of death or
after (most recent device interrogation was from the randomization visit). Additionally, the subject’s device
was not returned to Medtronic. Based on the limited available data, the Global Adverse Event
Adjudication Committee could not conclusively determine the relatedness. Table 12 provides a full listing
of all 26 subject deaths (1 prior to randomization and 25 post-randomization) organized by days postrandomization. Subject death rates were similar between the AdaptivCRT (9.8%) and Echo-Optimized
Control (8.7%) groups over the total duration of follow-up. This difference was not statistically significant
(log-rank p=0.47).

8 Clinical Study Conclusion
The AdaptivCRT™ feature was designed to provide patient-specific automatic and dynamic selection of
LV or BiV CRT pacing and adjustments of AV and VV delays based on periodic evaluation of intrinsic
electrical conduction.
The AdaptivCRT clinical study evaluated the AdaptivCRT feature and passed all three of its primary
objectives, demonstrating safety and effectiveness of the AdaptivCRT feature. Primary study objective
results demonstrated the following:
The AdaptivCRT feature is effective as determined by the clinical non-inferiority results of the Clinical
Composite Score between the AdaptivCRT group and the Echo-Optimized Control group.
The AdaptivCRT feature is effective as determined by the clinical non-inferiority of the cardiac
performance results between the AdaptivCRT feature and the echo-optimized settings.
The AdaptivCRT feature is safe as determined by the results from AdaptivCRT feature data. No
inappropriate device AV or VV delays were found in the study.
Since all three primary endpoints were met, six pre-specified secondary endpoints were analyzed in a
hierarchical fashion as planned. All six secondary endpoints were also met. The secondary objectives
focused on other clinically relevant outcomes for heart failure patients and corroborated the results of the
primary objectives. Furthermore, mortality and adverse event rates were similar between the two study
groups.
In summary, the AdaptivCRT clinical study met all primary and secondary safety and efficacy endpoints
demonstrating that the AdaptivCRT feature is safe and effective in the clinical environment.
