About this study

Official title: A Prospective, Multi-center,Randomized Controled Trial of Sizing-strategy of Bicuspid Aortic Valve Stenosis With Transcatheter Self-expandable Valve

To observe the clinical outcomes of the different valve sizing strategies treating type-0 Bicuspid Aortic Stenosis (BAS) with self-expandable transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) valve, compared with those of a standard sizing strategy of normal Tricuspid Aortic Stenosis(TAS).

Read the detailed description

BACKGROUND: From our current clinical experience, investigators mostly choose the smaller self-expandable transcatheter valve for type-0 BAS than that for TAS, combined with "balloon sizing" strategy. But no prospective and randomized studies show the rationality and clinical outcomes of different sizing strategies of type-0 BAS with self-expandable transcatheter valve.

AIM: To observe the clinical outcomes of the different valve sizing strategies treating type-0 BAS with self-expandable transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) valve, compared with those of a standard sizing strategy of normal TAS.

POPULATION: All patients with severe degenerative aortic valve stenosis referred for aortic valve intervention will be screened for study eligibility. To be included subjects must be 65 years or older, anatomical and technical eligible for both interventions, expected to survive more than 1 year after the intervention, and able to provide written informed consent. Study exclusion criteria include isolated aortic valve regurgitation or other significant valve disease, unstable preoperative condition.

DESIGN: The project is a multicenter randomized clinical trial. Patients of type-0 BAS fulfilling all inclusion and no exclusion criteria will be randomized into either Down sizing group or Standard sizing group. Randomization will be 1:1 with 53 subjects in each group. Meanwhile patients of TAS fulfilling all inclusion and no exclusion criteria will be included as a Standard group in this study. Screening and inclusion will commence in September 2015. Inclusion is expected to last 3 years, and subjects will be followed for 5 years.

Being tested
Down sizing valve in type-0 BAS, Standard sizing valve in type-0 BAS, Standard sizing valve in TAS

What participants receive

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

  • Down sizing valve in type-0 BASDevice

    Subjects will undergo percutaneous retrograde trans-peripheral arterial aortic valve implantation with the self-expandable bio-prosthesis. Before implantation a balloon dilatation of the aortic annulus and a simultaneous aortic root angiography will be performed. Down sizing valve implantation will be used in type-0 BAS.

  • Standard sizing valve in type-0 BASDevice

    Subjects will undergo percutaneous retrograde trans-peripheral arterial aortic valve implantation with the self-expandable bio-prosthesis. Before implantation a balloon dilatation of the aortic annulus and a simultaneous aortic root angiography will be performed. Standard sizing valve implantation will be used in type-0 BAS.

  • Standard sizing valve in TASDevice

    Subjects will undergo percutaneous retrograde trans-peripheral arterial aortic valve implantation with the self-expandable bio-prosthesis. Before implantation a balloon dilatation of the aortic annulus and a simultaneous aortic root angiography will be performed. Standard sizing valve implantation will be used in TAS.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of participants with Device success

    1. Absence of procedural mortality
    2. Correct positioning of a single prosthetic heart valve into the proper anatomical location
    3. Intended performance of the prosthetic heart valve (no prosthesis-patient mismatch and mean aortic valve gradient <20 mmHg or peak velocity <3 m/s, AND no moderate or severe prosthetic valve regurgitation)

    Measured: At 24 hours after procedure

  2. Changes of prosthetic valve functions

    1. Valve hemodynamics
    2. Peri-valvular regurgitation
    3. Valve malpositioning
    4. Valve morphology

    Measured: From 24 hours after procedure to 5 years

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. All-cause mortality and all stroke (disabling and non-disabling)

    Measured: 5 years

  2. Number of patients with procedural complications

    Measured: Within first 30 days

  3. Changes of ascending aortic diameter

    Measured: Changes of baseline ascending aortic diameter at 5 years

  4. Functional status (NYHA-classification)

    Measured: 5 years

  5. Quality of Life (SF-12)

    Measured: 5 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Down sizing valve in type-0 BAS, Standard sizing valve in type-0 BAS and Standard sizing valve in TAS in people with Aortic Valve Stenosis, run by Jian'an Wang,MD,PhD at 1 site in China.

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 4 inclusion and 10 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 Sep 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Xianbao Liu, MD (+86-13857173887, liuxb2009@hotmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of participants with Device success (time frame: At 24 hours after procedure). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 4 Sep 2015.
