Valvuloplasty Scoring Balloon Catheter First-in-Man Study

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Aortic Valve Stenosis
Interventions
Device: AngioScore's Valvuloplasty Scoring Balloon
Registration Number
NCT01514994
Lead Sponsor
Spectranetics Corporation
Brief Summary

The Valvuloplasty Scoring Balloon First-in-Man study is a prospective, single arm, two phase, observational registry to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of the Valvuloplasty Scoring Balloon Catheter for the treatment of critical aortic valve stenosis.

Detailed Description

Phase 1 will enroll patient who are scheduled to undergo open surgical aortic valve replacement and will have the Valvuloplasty Scoring Balloon delivered to their stenotic aortic valve through a standard aortotomy and deployed immediately prior to valve replacement.

Phase 2 will enroll patients with aortic valve stenosis who are deemed to not be suitable candidates for elective surgical aortic valve replacement and in whom the investigational Valvuloplasty Scoring Balloon will be used as a stand-alone Valvuloplasty procedure or "bridge" to trans-catheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) or surgery.

Procedural Success1 day

Procedural success defined as a \>50% increase in the aortic valve effective orifice area and less than or equal to 2+ valvular regurgitation at the end of the percutaneous valvuloplasty procedure utilizing echocardiography, hemodynamic measurements and angiography.

Number of participants who do not experience death, stroke, myocardial infarction or emergency cardiac surgery during their hospitalization.Participants will be followed for the duration of the hospital stay, an expected average of 48 hours

Freedom from in-hospital death, stroke, myocardial infarction or emergency cardiac surgery
