About this study

The aim of this collaborative analysis is to evaluate stroke rates and mortality in patients undergoing TAVI with the self-expandable MCV prosthesis compared to the balloon-expandable ES valve. In the absence of large randomized controlled trials, we will conduct a large collaborative patient-pooled meta-analysis on 30-day stroke and mortality in patients undergoing primary transfemoral TAVI with either MCV or ES valve.

Read the detailed description

The main aim of this patient-pooled analyses is to compare stroke rates and mortality in patients undergoing TAVI with the self-expandable MCV prosthesis compared to the balloon-expandable ES valve. However, this collaboration may also be used to compare various outcomes.

Studies were included if they complied with the following requirements: original prospective studies, including patients with aortic valve stenosis treated with transfemoral TAVI of native valves and reporting of 30 day stroke outcomes according to VARC criteria or other specified corresponding criteria . Moreover, to be included studies had to report both the use of self-expandable MCV prosthesis and the balloon-expandable ES valve in more than 50 patients in each arm to ensure experience in use of the valves. Studies were excluded if they only addressed patients undergoing valve-in-valve and re-do procedures or bicuspid valves or included the same study population. Principal Investigators of these studies were approached for collaboration.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Aortic Valve Stenosis, run by Academisch Medisch Centrum - Universiteit van Amsterdam (AMC-UvA) at 1 site in Netherlands.

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 1 inclusion and 1 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 26 Apr 2024. 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 Netherlands. 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?

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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03588247, which also lists 6 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 26 Apr 2024; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
