Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages Any age
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child, Adult, Older adult

Study population: Consecutive patients who have had a CryoValve SG Pulmonary Human Heart Valve implanted in the pulmonary position for right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) reconstruction or as part of the Ross procedure at selected institutions.

  • Retrospective Patients
  • Sequential patients implanted with a CryoValve SG Pulmonary Human Heart Halve as a Ross or RVOT reconstruction between February 2000 and March 2004 who were included in the 510(k) data collection will be identified using the following general criteria to aid in selection of patients who are most likely to provide adequate follow-up data: Patient is alive and the implanted valve is still in place (has not been explanted).

Patient is still under the care of the implanting institution or the implanting surgeon.

Patient was identified as previously providing data for at least one echocardiographic follow-up assessment at a minimum of one year post-implant.

  • Additionally, prospective enrolling centers will have the option to enroll retrospective patients. At these centers, all consecutive patients identified from valve implant data at CryoLife, implanted with a CryoValve SG Pulmonary Valve as a valved pulmonary valve prior to Clearance in 2008 will be targeted for inclusion in the retrospective patient data collection.
  • Prospective Patients
  • Sequential patients implanted with a CryoValve SG Pulmonary Human Heart Halve as a Ross or RVOT reconstruction after FDA 510(k) clearance in February 2008 at selected institutions.

About this study

The purpose of this study is to collect long-term follow-up data of the CryoValve SG Pulmonary Human Heart Valve.

Read the detailed description

The CryoValve SG pulmonary human heart valve is recovered from deceased human donors, treated with the SynerGraft® process,which is designed to reduce the donor cells present on the graft. The valve is then cryopreserved for storage until use. Removing cells from the heart valve has been shown to reduce a component of the immune response after implant compared to a standard allograft valve. However, it is not known how this affects the long-term durability of the valve.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Hemodynamic Performance

    Peak Pulmonary Gradient Mean Pulmonary Gradient

    Measured: Most Recent follow-up (average of 3-6 years post implant)

  2. Hemodynamic Performance

    Pulmonary Insufficiency Grade

    Measured: Most Recent Follow-up (average of 4 to 6 years post implant)

  3. Safety Assessment

    Evaluation of the following adverse events

    • Mortality (all cause and valve-related)
    • Reoperation/reintervention
    • Explant
    • Endocarditis
    • Structural valve deterioration (defined as >40 mmHg peak pulmonary gradient or >30 mmHg mean pulmonary gradient or moderately severe to severe pulmonary insufficiency)
    • Thrombosis
    • Thromboembolism (pulmonary embolism)
    • Non-structural dysfunction
    • Perivalvular leak
    • Bleeding
    • Hemolysis
    • Calcification

    Measured: Since Implant of the Valve to a Maximum of 13.0 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Pulmonary Valve Stenosis and Pulmonary Valve Insufficiency, run by CryoLife, Inc. at 8 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Oct 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 8 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 9 Dec 2015). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Hemodynamic Performance (time frame: Most Recent follow-up (average of 3-6 years post implant)). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01092442, which also lists 3 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 6 Oct 2016.
