Radiotherapy vs Catheter Ablation for Ventricular Tachycardia in Structural Heart Disease
Sponsor: Western Sydney Local Health District
Summary
The goal of this randomized clinical trial is to test the efficacy of stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) in treating ventricular tachycardia (VT) in patients with advanced structural heart disease. The main questions it aims to answer are: * What is the efficacy of SBRT compared to catheter ablation (CA) in achieving a ≥ 75% reduction in VT burden at 6 months * What is the comparable safety profile of SBRT vs CA Researchers will compare SBRT and CA (standard of care).
