Clinical Trial Summary

Prospective, single-arm, observational study with invasive coronary physiology measurements before and after transcatheter left-sided valvular intervention.

Description:

The POTUS study is a prospective, investigator-initiated, single-arm observational study with invasive measurements that will consist of two cohorts. The first cohort consists of 120 patients with intermediate coronary artery disease who undergo a transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) for severe aortic valve stenosis ('TAVI cohort'). The second cohort consists of 30 patients with intermediate coronary artery disease who undergo transcatheter mitral valve repair (TMVr) for functional/degenerative mitral regurgitation ('TMVr cohort'). Both cohorts will undergo a battery of coronary physiological tests both before and after the valvular intervention. Additionally, in the case that the fractional flow reserve (FFR) over a coronary lesion is significant (i.e. FFR ≤ 0.80) during the post valvular intervention measurements, additional percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) will take place during the same procedure.

Intervention

Diagnostic Test:
• Coronary Physiology assessment
Pd/Pa, diastolic pressure ratio (dPR), resting full cycle ratio (RFR), FFR, coronary flow reserve (CFR), and index of microvascular resistance (IMR) measurements in the coronary of interest before the valvular intervention. Pd/Pa, dPR, RFR, FFR, vFFR, CFR and IMR measurements in the coronary of interest after the valvular intervention.

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Other	The difference in the mean change in the FFR between the TAVI cohort and the TMVR cohort.	The mean change in the FFR in TAVI patients will be compared to mean change in FFR in TMVr patients.	Baseline
Other	The difference in the mean change in the RFR between the TAVI cohort and the TMVR cohort.	The mean change in the RFR in TAVI patients will be compared to mean change in RFR in TMVr patients.	Baseline
Other	The difference in the mean change in the dPR between the TAVI cohort and the TMVR cohort.	The mean change in the dPR in TAVI patients will be compared to mean change in dPR in TMVr patients.	Baseline
Other	The difference in the mean change in the Pd/Pa between the TAVI cohort and the TMVR cohort.	The mean change in the Pd/Pa in TAVI patients will be compared to mean change in Pd/Pa in TMVr patients.	Baseline
Other	The number of patients in who the post FFR, RFR, Pd/Pa or dPR value crosses the border of hemodynamic significance as compared to the value pre-valvular intervention.	Number of patients who have 1) a positive FFR/RFR/Pd/Pa/dPR value pre-valvular intervention, and negative FFR/RFR/Pd/Pa/dPR post-valvular intervention or 2) a negative FFR/RFR/Pd/Pa/dPR pre-valvular intervention, and positive FFR/RFR/Pd/Pa/dPR value post-valvular intervention.	Baseline
Other	The number of patients in whom the decision for coronary revascularization is altered when based on the post-procedural FFR value instead of angiographic stenosis severity.	Number of patients who have 1) post-valvular intervention FFR = 0.80 and diameter stenosis 50-70% or 2) post-valvular intervention FFR > 0.80 and diameter stenosis = 70%.	Baseline
Other	The diagnostic performance of vessel FFR (vFFR; an angiography-based FFR index) in the setting of valvular heart disease.	The vFFR pre-intervention will be validated against the FFR-value both pre- and post-intervention	Baseline
