About this study

Official title: Safety and Performance Study of the Edwards SAPIEN 3 Transcatheter Heart Valve

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and device success of the Edwards SAPIEN 3 Transcatheter Heart Valve (S3 THV) and the Edwards Commander and Certitude Delivery Systems in patients with symptomatic, severe aortic stenosis who are indicated for aortic valve replacement.

Read the detailed description

This is a non-randomized, prospective, multicenter safety and device success study. Two hundred fifty (250) patients are planned to be enrolled at up to 20 participating investigational centers in Europe and Canada. Patient participation will last for a minimum of 5 years. Patients will be assessed at the following intervals: baseline, hospital discharge, 30 days, 1 year and annually thereafter for a minimum of 5 years.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Edwards SAPIEN 3 Transcatheter Heart ValveDevice

    Also called TAVR, TAVI

    The Edwards SAPIEN 3 Transcatheter Heart Valve (THV) System is indicated for use in symptomatic patients (intermediate or higher operable risk) with severe aortic stenosis requiring aortic valve replacement (AVR).

What is being measured

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

  1. All-cause mortality rate

    NAP

    Measured: 30 days post-index procedure

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. safety endpoints(VARC II)

    safety endpoints

    composite of mortality, and major complications including THV-related dysfunction major bleeds MI new conduction abnormality new onset of AF time-related valve safety composite of valve structural deterioration

    Measured: Discharge or 72 hours (whichever is longer), 30 days, 1 and 5 years post-index procedure.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Edwards SAPIEN 3 Transcatheter Heart Valve in people with Aortic Valve Disease, run by Edwards Lifesciences at 17 sites in 5 countries.

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

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 8 inclusion and 7 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Apr 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 17 sites in Germany, United Kingdom, France, Canada, Italy. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

All-cause mortality rate (time frame: 30 days post-index procedure). 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 NCT01808287, which also lists 2 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 1 Apr 2020.
