N/A

Research Sponsored by Boston Scientific Corporation

Eligibility Criteria Checklist

Specific guidelines that determine who can or cannot participate in a clinical trial

Must have

Subject has documented severe symptomatic native aortic stenosis defined as follows: aortic valve area (AVA) ≤1.0 cm2 (or AVA index ≤0.6 cm2/m2) AND a mean pressure gradient ≥40 mmHg, OR maximal aortic valve velocity ≥4.0 m/s, OR Doppler velocity index ≤0.25 as measured by echocardiography and/or invasive hemodynamics. (Note: In cases of low flow, low gradient aortic stenosis with left ventricular dysfunction (ejection fraction <50%), dobutamine can be used to assess the grade of aortic stenosis (maximum dobutamine dose of 20 mcg/kg/min recommended); the subject may be enrolled if echocardiographic criteria are met with this augmentation.)

Must not have

Subject has atrial fibrillation that cannot be rate controlled to ventricular response rate < 60 bpm.

Subject has a need for emergency surgery for any reason.

Timeline

Screening 3 weeks

Treatment Varies

Follow Up participants will be followed for the duration of the trial, through 10 years.

Awards & highlights

Summary

This trial will evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the ACURATE Transfemoral Aortic Valve System for transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) in subjects with severe native aortic stenosis who are indicated for TAVR.

Who is the study for?

This trial is for adults with severe aortic stenosis indicated for TAVR. Participants must have symptoms, be NYHA Class ≥ II, and agree to follow-up visits. They should have an aortic valve area ≤1.0 cm2 or other specific echocardiographic criteria and an annulus size of 20.5-29 mm. Exclusions include unicuspid/bicuspid valves, recent strokes, significant untreated coronary disease, cardiogenic shock, severe kidney/liver issues among others.Check my eligibility

What is being tested?

The study tests the safety and effectiveness of the ACURATE Transfemoral Aortic Valve System compared to existing systems like Medtronic CoreValve and Edwards SAPIEN 3 in patients with severe native aortic stenosis who are candidates for TAVR.See study design

What are the potential side effects?

Potential side effects may include bleeding complications, vascular injury at access site, stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA), irregular heart rhythms requiring pacemaker implantation after procedure; allergic reactions to materials or medications used.
