Clinical Trial Summary

A prospective, single arm clinical investigation evaluating safety and effectiveness/performance of the Microport CardioFlow VitaFlowTM II - Transcatheter Aortic Valve System for the treatment of symptomatic severe aortic stenosis via transcatheter access in increased surgical risk patients

Description:

This is a prospective, multicenter, single arm and controlled clinical investigation compared to recent historical results. The purpose is to evaluate the safety, performance and efficacy of the VitaflowTM II Transcatheter Aortic Valve system.

The entire system including valve system, delivery system and introducer system. We will implant the valve system into subjects and followed up them for 5 years after the procedure. This clinical trial will be conducted in 15 sites in Europe.

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Rate of all-cause mortality at 12 months post implantation	all-cause mortality including cardiovascular and non-cardiovascular	12 months post implantation
Secondary	Rate of Composite of all-cause mortality and disabling stroke	defined as the ratio of all-cause dead and disabled subjects to total subjects at each time point	at 30 days, 6 months,12 months, 2, 3, 4 and 5 years post implantation
Secondary	Rate of stroke (disabling and non-disabling)	defined as the ratio of stroke subjects (disabling and non-disabling) to total subjects at each time point	at 30 days, 6 months,12 months, 2, 3, 4 and 5 years post-implantation
Secondary	Initial success	defined as absence of procedural mortality AND correct positioning of a single VitaFlowTM Aortic Valve into the proper anatomical location AND absence of patient / VitaFlowTM Aortic Valve mismatch AND mean aortic valve gradient less than (<) 20 mmHg or peak velocity less than (<) 3m/s, AND absence of moderate or severe prosthetic valve regurgitation	within 30 days post-implantation

For each domain, the validity, reproducibility, responsiveness and interpretability have been independently established.

Secondary	Changes in quality of life EQ-5D-5L	Use the questions and score system to evaluate life quality of subjects at each The descriptive system comprises five dimensions: mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort and anxiety/depression. Each dimension has 5 levels: no problems, slight problems, moderate problems, severe problems and extreme problems. The patient is asked to indicate his/her health state by ticking the box next to the most appropriate statement in each of the five dimensions. This decision results in a 1-digit number that expresses the level selected for that dimension.
