Inclusion Criteria

  • 70 years of age or older
  • Echocardiographic or hemodynamic based evidence of calcific (senile) aortic stenosis with one of the following: aortic valve EOA <1.0 cm2 or 0.6 cm2/m2 , mean aortic valve gradient >40 mmHg or peak aortic valve velocity >4 m/sec
  • Symptomatology due to aortic stenosis resulting in one of the following:
  • NYHA Functional Classification of II or greater
  • Presence of angina
  • Presence of syncope
  • Aortic valve annular diameter ≥ 24 and ≤26 mm measured by MSCT based on area or perimeter
  • STS score of ≥8, or documented heart team agreement of high risk for surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) due to frailty or comorbidities.
  • Geographically available, willing to comply with follow up and able to provide written informed consent

Exclusion Criteria

  • Congenital unicuspid or bicuspid aortic valve, or noncalcified aortic valve; or valve eccentricity (calcific or otherwise) that in the opinion of the investigator could compromise procedural success.
  • Patients at high risk for coronary obstruction in the opinion of the investigator (e.g. combination of a coronary height < 12 mm and coronary sinus diameter < 30 mm)
  • Patients with low flow/low gradient aortic stenosis
  • Patients with significant annular calcification (e.g. Agatston score > 4000)
  • Pre-existing prosthetic heart valve in any position, or prosthetic ring
  • Severe aortic, mitral or tricuspid valve regurgitation
  • Moderate to severe mitral stenosis
  • Myocardial infarction within the past 30 days*
  • Echocardiographic evidence of intracardiac mass, thrombus or vegetation
  • LVEF < 30%
  • Severe pulmonary hypertension with pulmonary systolic pressure greater than two-thirds of systemic pressure
  • Hemodynamic instability requiring inotropic drug therapy within the past 14 days
  • Untreated clinically significant coronary artery disease requiring revascularization
  • Presence of significant aortic disease such as atheroma, thrombus, or aneurysm which, in the opinion of the investigator, precludes safe implant delivery
  • Blood dyscrasias defined as: acute leukopenia, acute anemia, acute thrombocytopenia, history of bleeding diathesis or coagulopathy
  • Patient ineligible for or refuses blood transfusions
  • Unfavorable peripheral vascular anatomy or disease (e.g. severe obstructive calcification, severe tortuosity or vessels < 6 mm) that would preclude passage of catheters from the femoral arterial access to the aorta as evidenced by peripheral MSCT
  • Active peptic ulcer or gastrointestinal bleeding within the past 90 days*
  • Symptoms of carotid or vertebral artery disease (e.g. stroke or transient ischemic attack) within past 6 month, or treatment of carotid stenosis within past two months*
  • Renal insufficiency as demonstrated by a serum creatinine > 2.5 mg/dL or end stage renal disease requiring chronic dialysis
  • Active infection requiring ongoing treatment
  • Need for emergent surgery or intervention other than the investigational procedure
  • Any therapeutic invasive cardiac procedure performed or planned to perform within 30 days of the index procedure except for PCI which is within 7 days of the index procedure*
  • Hypersensitivity or contraindication to procedural medication and device materials (e.g. titanium, nickel, pork) which cannot be adequately pre-medicated
  • Life expectancy < 1 year due to non-cardiac co-morbid conditions
  • Currently participating in any investigational drug or device studies that may confound the results of this study
  • History of any cognitive or mental health status that would interfere with study participation * At the time of procedure, if a subject's medical status has changed since enrollment, the subject shall be re-evaluated for eligibility.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Primary Endpoint: Mortality at 30 days

Time Frame: 30 days

The primary safety endpoint is all-cause mortality at 30 days

Secondary Outcomes

  • Secondary Performance Endpoint 1: Procedural Device Performance(1 day)
  • Secondary Performance Endpoint 2: Post-procedural Valve Performance (Severity of Aortic Valve Regurgitation)(1 week, 1, 6, 12, 24, 36, 48 and 60 months)
  • Secondary Performance Endpoint 2: Post-procedural Valve Performance (Aortic Valve Gradient)(1 week, 1, 6, 12, 24, 36, 48 and 60 months)
  • Secondary Safety Endpoint 3: Adverse Events(throughout the 5 year follow up period)
  • Secondary Performance Endpoint 2: Post-procedural Valve Performance (Aortic Valve Effective Orifice Area)(1 week, 1, 6, 12, 24, 36, 48 and 60 months)
