Active clinical trials for "Aortic Valve Stenosis"

Pericapsular nerve group (PENG block) is a new fascial block defined by Arango et al. This block aims to block the femoral nerve and the accessory obturator nerve by injecting local anesthetic between the pubic ramus and psoas tendon. By blocking these nerves, anterior hip analgesia is created. It is a safe and effective method as it is applied superficially and under ultrasound guidance. In radiological and cadaver studies, it has been reported that when high volume is applied, total hip analgesia can be achieved by blocking the lateral femoral cutaneous, genitofemoral, obturator, and femoral nerves.

The EMPIRE study confirms the technical performance of the new IMPERIA Delivery System and evaluates the safety and efficacy of the entire ALLEGRA THV System. The primary endpoint is device success rate at 7 days (discharge from index procedure or 7 days post implant, whichever comes first), as defined by VARC 2. Based on the outcomes of a study with a similar device and considering a drop-out rate of 5%, 107 patients need to be enrolled in the study.

Paravalvular regurgitation (PVR) is an important complication of Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI) that is associated with a 2.5-fold increase risk of mortality. Transesophageal echocardiographic (TEE) is considered as the gold standard to assess the severity of PVR and guide the physician to perform corrective procedures during TAVI, but it requires general anesthesia (GA). With such approach (TEE+GA), the PARTNERII trial has demonstrated that very low rate of PVR (3,5%) can be achieved with current devices. Registries have demonstrated a strong trend for using a mini-invasive approach in which the procedure is performed under conscious sedation (CS) without TEE. However, several studies raised concerns on the safety of this mini-invasive approach concerning the PVR rate. Thus, the accurate and real-time assessment of the presence and severity of PVR is an unmet clinical need to optimize TAVI without TEE guidance. A recent study reported that a blood biomarker reflecting the Von Willebrand factor (VWF) activity, i.e. the closure time with adenosine diphosphate (CT-ADP), is a valuable non-invasive, highly reproducible, and easy to perform alternative to TEE for PVR evaluation. The hypothesis is that the measurement of CT-ADP during TAVI performed without TEE guidance can improve both the detection of significant PVR and thus the procedural and clinical outcomes (primary objective).

To evaluate 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.

The Colibri Heart Valve clinical investigation ("COL-01") is a prospective, multicenter, exploratory single arm and controlled clinical investigation compared to recent historical results. This study will be conducted in about 7 European sites. The study will evaluate the safety and performance of the Colibri Transcatheter Aortic Heart Valve System for the treatment of symptomatic severe aortic stenosis via transfemoral access in high surgical risk patients. 30 subjects suffering from symptomatic severe aortic tricuspid valve stenosis and who are at high surgical risk (logistic EuroSCORE I > 20% or other risk factors not included in this score such as frailty, porcelain aorta, sequelae of chest radiation or logistic EuroSCORE I < 20% but considered at high risk by local Heart Team evaluation) will be enrolled in this clinical investigation. The primary objective of this clinical investigation is to evaluate the all-cause mortality at 30 days post implantation. The secondary objectives are to evaluate the safety and performance of the investigational device at 30 days, 6 and 12 months, and 2, 3, 4, 5 years post implantation.

This is an adaptive Phase 2/3 multicenter, double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized, parallel, 3 arm study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of DA-1229 compared to placebo in patients with calcific aortic valve disease with mild to moderate aortic stenosis. There are 3 arms in this study to which patients will be randomized in a ratio of 1:1:1 to receive the DA-1229 or placebo orally once daily for a period of 104 weeks . the 3 arms are: placebo, DA-1229 5mg GroupDA-1229 10 mg Group. The study will have three phases: Screening Period (up to 4 weeks), Treatment Period (104 weeks), and Follow-Up Period (2-4 weeks). Total Study Duration is112 Weeks.

Aortic stenosis (AS) is the most common valvular heart disease in the developed world. Once symptomatic, untreated patients have a poor prognosis with five-year survival rate of 25%. Once at an advanced stage, AS will lead to the development of left ventricle hypertrophy, and eventually heart failure and death. At-present, there is no effective medical therapy for aortic stenosis. Current management of patients with AS consists of 'watchful waiting'. Valve replacement is needed when these patients (often acutely) become symptomatic. Recent studies have shown that inflammatory processes with similarities to atherosclerosis play an important role in AS. Therefore, we hypothesize that treatment with anti-inflammatory therapy, in the form of colchicine, could reduce the progression of AS. If positive, this trial will be the first to provide a potential therapeutic option for millions of people world-wide with AS.

The objective of this study is to establish the safety and effectiveness of the Edwards SAPIEN X4 Transcatheter Heart Valve (THV) in subjects with symptomatic, severe, calcific aortic stenosis (AS).

The objective of this clinical trial is to collect data on procedural safety and device performance of the Portico and Navitor devices and FlexNav delivery system to treat patients with severe aortic stenosis in the Indian population.

A randomized 12-month trial will include two groups of 100 individuals aged over 50 years, with asymptomatic mild to moderate Aortic valve stenosis (AVA > 1 cm2, Vmax < 4 m/s). The first group of 100 individuals will serve as the intervention group that will receive 300 mcg of K2 vitamin on a daily basis, while the second group of 100 individuals will be the control group that will receive placebo on a daily basis as well. Both groups will be monitored identically in order to investigate therapeutic effects on calcification and valve stenosis progression.
