About this study

Assessment of feasibility, safety and outcomes of transcatheter valve interventions

Read the detailed description

Transcatheter valve therapies have a growing impact on daily medical practice since the first human percutaneous implantation of an aortic valve bioprosthesis by A. Cribier in 2002. While initially these techniques were reserved for patients at prohibitive risk for surgical aortic valve implantation, indications moving toward patients at high and intermediate risk.

Outcomes of these percutaneous interventions need to be monitored to assess quality of care and tailor indications in this rapidly moving field in interventional cardiology.

Trial objectives and Design Trial objectives

  • to describe patient populations selected for transcatheter valve treatment
  • to describe procedural aspects and results
  • to perform clinical and hemodynamic follow-up of the patients Primary endpoints The primary endpoints of the study are clinical outcomes after transcatheter valve interventions according to the Valve Academic Research Consortium criteria (2-3).

Secondary endpoints The secondary endpoints of the study are hemodynamic outcomes after transcatheter valve interventions according to the Valve Academic Research Consortium criteria (2-3). Quality of life parameters, as well as exercise tolerance will be assessed.

Trial Design The design of the trial is a prospective non-interventional registry.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Heart Valve Diseases, run by Universitaire Ziekenhuizen KU Leuven at 1 site in Belgium.

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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Jul 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 Belgium. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Christophe Dubois, MD, PhD (christophe.dubois@uzleuven.be), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

All-cause death (time frame: 10 years of follow-up). The study lists 4 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 3 Jul 2024.
