About this study

Trial of ACURATE neo(TM) Aortic Bioprosthesis for Implantation using the ACURATE TA(TM) LP Transapical Delivery System in Patients with Severe Aortic Stenosis for evaluating the Safety and performance of the study device

Read the detailed description

This is a single arm, prospective, multicenter non randomised and open trial of the treatment of patients with severe aortic stenosis where conventional aortic valve replacement (AVR) via open heart surgery is considered to be high risk. All patients will be followed up to 5 years after the intervention.

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

    incidence of all cause mortality at 30 days

    Measured: 30 days

  2. Mean aortic gradient after device implantation

    mean aortic gradient evaluated by echocardiography and by the site at 7days or discharge per standard post-implantation follow-up

    Measured: 7 days or Discharge

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. rate of clinical endpoints VARC II

    rate of clinical endpoints VARC II at 30 days and 12 months

    Measured: 30 days and month 12

  2. procedural success

    procedural success defined as ACURATE neo™ at intended location

    Measured: procedure

  3. device success assessed according to composite VARC 2 criteria

    Device success defined as:

    • ACURATE neo™ implanted in intended location
    • No impingement of the mitral valve
    • Normal coronary blood flow
    • Insufficiency < Grade 3
    • Mean aortic gradient < 20mmHg
    • EOA ≥ 1.0 cm2 No further re-intervention performed on the ACURATE neo™ implant

    Measured: 7 days, 30 days, 12 months

  4. functional improvement from Baseline as per NYHA Functional Classification

    functional improvement from baseline as per NYHA functional classification at 30 days and 12 months follow up

    Measured: 30 days and 12 months follow up

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing ACURATE neo™ and ACURATE TA™ LP in people with Aortic Stenosis, run by Symetis SA at 2 sites in Germany.

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 9 inclusion and 30 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 9 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 2 sites in Germany. 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 (time frame: 30 days). 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 9 Apr 2020.
