Study Summary

This trial is to study the safety and effectiveness of a new aortic heart valve in people who are at high or extreme risk for surgery.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for high or extreme surgical risk patients with symptomatic aortic stenosis, confirmed by specific heart function classifications and measurements. Eligible participants must have an aortic valve area of ≤1.0 cm2 among other criteria, but cannot join if they've had recent heart attacks, certain blood disorders, previous heart valve replacements, or severe mitral valve issues.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests the safety and effectiveness of the Navitor (Portico™ NG) Transcatheter Aortic Heart Valve in reducing death rates at 30 days post-operation and minimizing paravalvular leaks in patients who are not good candidates for traditional surgery.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While not explicitly listed here, potential side effects may include bleeding due to anticoagulation therapy required after implantation, vascular complications from inserting the device through small vessels, stroke risks associated with heart procedures, and possible irregularities in heart rhythm.

Treatment Details

Study Objectives

Outcome measures can provide a clearer picture of what you can expect from a treatment.
Primary outcome measures
Primary effectiveness endpoint is moderate or greater paravalvular leak
Primary safety endpoint is all-cause mortality
Secondary outcome measures
Non-hierarchical composite of all-cause mortality, disabling stroke, life threatening bleeding, acute kidney injury (stage 3), or major vascular complications
