About this study

Official title: Prospective Randomized Comparison of TrIfecta and Perimount Magna Ease

The hemodynamic performance of two supraannular aortic xenografts (Trifecta, St. Jude Medical and Perimount Magna Ease, Edwards Lifescience) will be compared using rest- and stress echocardiography in a randomized prospective study. Furthermore, the prostheses' influence on postoperative outcome will be compared using spiroergometry, quality of life questionnaire and heart failure biomarkers.

Being tested
Aortic xenograft

What participants receive

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

  • Aortic xenograftDevice

    After randomization, the aortic xenograft is implanted in the standard fashion

What is being measured

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

  1. Transprosthetic pressure gradient at stress exercise echocardiography

    Measured: Echo at follow up stress echo (at 10 months)

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Transprosthetic pressure gradient at discharge echo

    Measured: Echo at discharge (usually postoperative day 5 to 7)

  2. Left ventricular mass regression calculated by echocardiography (gram)

    Measured: Echo at discharge and at follow up (usually at postoperative day 5 to 7 and at 10 months)

  3. Quality of life using the EQ-5D-3L questionnaire

    Measured: 1 to 5 days before surgery and at follow up (10 months)

  4. BNP plasma level

    Measured: 1 to 5 days before surgery and at follow up (10 months)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Aortic xenograft in people with Aortic Xenograft Hemodynamics, run by Kerckhoff Klinik at 1 site 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 5 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 13 Jan 2017. 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 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?

Transprosthetic pressure gradient at stress exercise echocardiography (time frame: Echo at follow up stress echo (at 10 months)). 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 13 Jan 2017.
