The subject meets the legal minimum age to provide informed consent based on local regulatory requirements, and has provided written informed consent as approved by the EC/IRB of the respective clinical site.
The subject and the treating physician agree that the subject will return for all required post-procedure follow-up visits.
Exclusion Criteria:
Clinical exclusion criteria:
Subject has been offered SAVR but has declined.
Any condition considered a contraindication for placement of a bioprosthetic valve (e.g. subject is indicated for mechanical prosthetic valve).
Known hypersensitivity or contraindication to Nitinol.
Blood dyscrasias as defined: leukopenia (WBC <1000 mm3), thrombocytopenia (platelet count <50,000 cells/mm3), history of bleeding diathesis or coagulopathy, or hypercoagulable states.

Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm Type

Experimental

Arm Label

The CoreValve™ Evolut R TAV™ system

Arm Description

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

All-cause Mortality Rate at 30 Days

The All-cause mortality rate at 30 days per the VARC II recommendation of clinical endpoints for TAVI. More specifically: Cardiovascular mortality (Any of the following criteria) Death due to proximate cardiac cause (e.g. myocardial infarction, cardiac tamponade, worsening heart failure) Death caused by non-coronary vascular conditions such as neurological events, pulmonary embolism, ruptured aortic aneurysm, dissecting aneurysm, or other vascular disease All procedure-related deaths, including those related to a complication of the procedure or treatment for a complication of the procedure All valve-related deaths including structural or non-structural valve dysfunction or other valve-related adverse events Sudden or unwitnessed death Death of unknown cause Non-cardiovascular mortality Any death in which the primary cause of death is clearly related to another condition (e.g. trauma, cancer, suicide)

Stroke Rate (Disabling and Non-disabling) at 30 Days

The Stroke rate (disabling and non-disabling) at 30 days per the VARC II definitions. Stroke is defined as an acute episode of focal or global neurological dysfunction caused by the brain, spinal cord, or retinal vascular injury as a result of haemorrhage or infarction. Stroke may be classified as ischaemic or haemorrhagic with appropriate subdefinitions. Ischaemic stroke is defined as an acute episode of focal cerebral, spinal, or retinal dysfunction caused by infarction of central nervous system tissue. Haemorrhagic stroke is defined as an acute episode of focal or global cerebral or spinal dysfunction caused by intraparenchymal, intraventricular, or subarachnoid haemorrhage. A stroke may be classified as 'undetermined' if there is insufficient information to allow the categorization as ischaemic or haemorrhagic.

Device Success Rate at 24 Hours to Seven Days

Device success rate at 24 hours to seven days, defined as: Absence of procedural mortality, AND Correct positioning of a single prosthetic heart valve into the proper anatomical location, AND Intended performance of the prosthetic heart valve, defined as the absence of patient-prosthesis-mismatch and mean aortic valve gradient less than 20 mmHg (or peak velocity < 3 m/sec), AND absence of moderate or severe prosthetic valve regurgitation. The percentage of subjects with no more than mild aortic regurgitation at early post procedure echocardiogram (24 hours through seven days).

Secondary Outcome Measures

VARC II Combined Safety Endpoint at 30 Days

The VARC II Combined Safety Endpoint at 30 days includes the following components: All-Cause Mortality, All Stroke, Life Threatening or Disabling Bleeding, Acute Kidney Injury: Stage 2 or 3, Coronary Artery Obstruction, Major Vascular Complication, and Valve-Related Dysfunction Requiring Repeat Procedure.

Event Rates of the Individual Components of the VARC II Composite Safety Endpoint at 30 Days

The Individual components of the VARC II composite safety endpoint at 30 days per the Kaplan Meier Event Rate (%).

Hemodynamic Performance Metrics at 30 Days by Doppler Echocardiography - Mean Gradient

The hemodynamic performance will be measured by the Mean Prosthetic Valve Gradient for 59 subjects, measured with the Doppler echocardiography.

Hemodynamic Performance Metrics at 30 Days by Doppler Echocardiography - • Effective Orifice Area (EOA)

Effective orifice area

Hemodynamic Performance Metrics at 30 Days by Doppler Echocardiography - Total Aortic Regurgitation (Transvalvular & Paravalvular)

Degree of Total prosthetic valve regurgitation (transvalvular & paravalvular)

Resheath or Recapture Success Rate (When Attempted), Where Successful Recapture is Defined as Evolut R™ TAV (Including the Frame) is Fully Resheathed Into the Capsule of the Delivery Catheter, as Verified by Fluoroscopy.

Resheath or Recapture success rate (when attempted), where successful recapture is defined as Evolut R™ TAV (including the frame) is fully resheathed into the capsule of the delivery catheter, as verified by fluoroscopy. Resheathing or recapturing of the TAV was attempted on 15 subjects.

Brief Summary

To assess the safety and clinical performance of the CoreValve™ Evolut R™ System.

Detailed Description

The study objectives are to assess the safety and clinical performance of the CoreValve™ Evolut R™ System in patients with severe symptomatic aortic stenosis who are considered at high through extreme risk for surgical aortic valve replacement. These objectives will be accomplished by a prospective clinical study involving up to 60 implanted subjects among up to six study centers.
