5 Year Observation of Patients With PORTICO Valves

Completed
Conditions
Aortic Valve Stenosis
Registration Number
NCT01802788
Lead Sponsor
Abbott Medical Devices
Brief Summary

The purpose of this clinical investigation is to further assess the performance and safety profile of the commercially-available Portico™ TAVI System in patients with severe symptomatic aortic stenosis.

Detailed Description

This is an international multicenter, prospective, non-randomized clinical investigation without concurrent or matched control, designed to assess the mid-term safety and performance of the Portico valve in patients with severe symptomatic aortic stenosis whom are high risk for surgical valve replacement. The primary endpoint is 1 year all-cause mortality. In addition, the performance and safety profile of the Portico valve will be further evaluated at 30 days, 1 year, and annually through 5 years post-implant.

The investigation will be conducted at approximately 65 centers in approximately 15 countries in Europe, Middle-East, Africa, Canada, Australia and New Zealand.

Inclusion Criteria
  • Patient has signed the Patient Informed Consent prior to participating in the clinical investigation.

  • Patient has been referred for a Portico Valve implant as per Heart Team decision or patient has received a Portico Valve as per participation in an SJM sponsored regulatory or first-in-human trial.

  • Patient has senile degenerative aortic valve stenosis confirmed by echocardiographically derived criteria*:

    • An initial aortic valve area (AVA) of less than or equal to (≤) 1.0 cm2 (or indexed EOA less than or equal to (≤) 0.6 cm2/m2) AND
    • A mean gradient greater than (>)40 mmHg or jet velocity greater than (>)4.0 m/s or Doppler Velocity Index less than (<)0.25. If the mean gradient is <40 mmHg and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) <55%, then the site may as well perform a dobutamine stress echo to see if the mean gradient increases to >40 mmHg." (Baseline measurement taken by echo within 6 months of index procedure.)
  • Patient has a life expectancy more than (>) 12 months.

For patients enrolled in a French site:

  • Patient is at high risk for surgery as demonstrated by a Logistic EuroSCORE equal or more than (≥) 20 and/or a Society of Thoracic Surgeon (STS) mortality risk score of more than (>) 10% and/or by clinical judgment of the Heart Team based on the individual risk profile (comorbidities).

    • Not applicable for a patient who has received a Portico Valve as per participation in an SJM sponsored Regulatory or First-In-Human trial.
Exclusion Criteria
  • Any case in which the Portico Valve would not be indicated for the patient as per current instructions for use (i.e any "off-label" use).
  • Patient has any other aortic valve than tricuspid one.
  • Patient has a prosthetic valve or ring in the aortic position.
  • Patient needs a concomitant structural heart procedure..
  • Patient needs the usage of an embolic protection device.
  • Patient is unwilling or unable to comply with all clinical investigation-required follow-up evaluations.
  • Patient is pregnant

Mean Quality of Life Assessment in Cohort A30 days and 1 year post implant

EuroQuol-5 Dimensions (EQ5D) is a standardized instrument for use as a measure of health outcome applicable to a wide range of health conditions and treatments. A visual analog scale (VAS) for health is also included in the measure as a patient-reported estimate of overall health status. This scale ranges between 0-100, where 0 is 'the worst health you can imagine' and 100 is 'the best health you can imagine'.
