About this study

Clinical trial aimed at evaluating the safety and performance of the ACURATE neo™ AS Aortic Bioprosthesis and ACURATE neo™ AS TF Transfemoral Delivery System for CE mark approval purposes.

Read the detailed description

Single arm, prospecitve, multicenter, non-randomized and open trial. The purpose of this trial is to collect and safety and performance data concerning the ACURATE neo™ AS Aortic Bioprosthesis and ACURATE neo™ AS TF Transfemoral Delivery System

The ACURATE neo™ AS Aortic Bioprosthesis and ACURATE neo™ AS TF Transfemoral Delivery System are intended for use in minimally invasive, transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) using transfemoral access in patients presenting with severe aortic valve stenosis.

The primary objective is to evaluate the safety and performance of the study device in patients presenting with severe aortic stenosis (AS) considered to be high risk for surgery.

The secondary objective is to evaluate adverse events and study device performance.

What is being measured

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

  1. Rate of all-cause mortality at 30 days follow-up

    Measured: 30 days post-implant

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Rate of clinical events as defined per VARC guidelines

    Clinical events:

    • Mortality
    • Stroke
    • Myocardial infarction
    • Bleeding complication
    • Acute kidney injury
    • Vascular complication
    • Conduction disturbances and arrhythmia
    • Other TAVI-related complications

    Measured: 7 days, 30 days, 12 months post-implant

  2. Procedural success

    1. Procedural success defined as absence of complications arising during implantation of the prosthetic valve such as: inability to properly seat the valve in the annulus; need for more than one aortic bioprosthesis (valve in valve); or if a surgical aortic valve replacement is required to correct a severe aortic regurgitation or procedure complication

    Measured: Day of implant

  3. Device success

    1. Device success defined as:
    • Absence of intra-procedure mortality AND,
    • Correct positioning of a single prosthetic heart valve into the proper anatomical location AND,
    • Intended performance of the prosthetic heart valve (EOAi >0.85 cm2/m2 and mean aortic valve gradient <20mmHg without moderate or severe AR)

    Measured: Day of implant

  4. VARC Composite Safety at 30 days

    Measured: 30 days

  5. Clinical improvement from baseline as per NYHA Functional Classification

    Measured: 7 days, 30 days, 12 months post-implant

  6. Improvement from baseline in hemodynamic function: effective orifice area, mean transprosthetic gradient

    Measured: 7 days, 30 days, 12 months

  7. Total aortic regurgitation

    Measured: 7 days, 30 days, 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Transcatheter aortic valve replacement in people with Aortic Stenosis, run by Symetis SA at 9 sites in 3 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 12 inclusion and 34 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 16 Feb 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 9 sites in Germany, Denmark, Switzerland. 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?

Rate of all-cause mortality at 30 days follow-up (time frame: 30 days post-implant). 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 16 Feb 2023.
