NCT02214277

Brief Summary

The Sentinel System will be a safe and effective method for capturing and removing embolic material (thrombus/debris) during transcatheter aortic valve replacement in order to reduce the ischemic burden in the cerebral anterior circulation.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Reduction in Median Total New Lesion Volume in Protected Territories Between Test and Control Arms as Assessed by DW-MRI at Day 2-7 Post-procedure.

    Total new lesion volume is defined as the sum of all diffusion-positive new cerebral lesions in post-TAVR DW-MRI relative to the pre-TAVR DW-MRI scans. Protected territories are defined as brain territories uniquely perfused by the vessels protected by the Sentinel System, namely the left and right carotid arteries, and the right vertebral artery.

    Day 2-7 Post-Procedure

  • Patients With Major Adverse Cardiac and Cerebrovascular Events (MACCE) at 30 Days

    Primary Safety Endpoint: MACCE (all death, all stroke, and acute kidney injury class 3 within 72 hours or discharge, whatever occurs first) at 30 days compared to a historical performance goal of 18.3%.

    30 Days Post-Procedure

Interventions

Claret Medical Sentinel Cerebral Protection System is intended for use as an embolic protection system to contain and remove embolic material (thrombus/debris) that may enter the carotid arteries.

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Approved indications for commercially available Edwards SAPIEN Transcatheter Heart Valve, model 9000TFX or SAPIEN XT, model 9300TFX meeting one of the three sub-criteria below:
  • SAPIEN
  • transfemoral delivery in subjects with severe symptomatic calcified native aortic valve stenosis without severe aortic insufficiency and with ejection fraction \>20% who have been examined by a heart team including an experienced cardiac surgeon and a cardiologist and found to either be:
  • inoperable and in whom existing co-morbidities would not preclude the expected benefit from correction of the aortic stenosis; or
  • be operative candidates for aortic valve replacement but who have a Society of Thoracic Surgeons predicted operative risk score \>8% or are judged by the heart team to be at a 15% risk of mortality for surgical aortic valve replacement.
  • transapical delivery in subjects with severe symptomatic calcified native aortic valve stenosis without severe aortic insufficiency and with ejection fraction \> 20% who have been examined by a heart team including an experienced cardiac surgeon and a cardiologist and found to be operative candidates for aortic valve replacement but who have a Society of Thoracic Surgeons operative risk score 8% or are judged by the heart team to be at a 15% risk of mortality for surgical aortic valve replacement.
  • SAPIEN XT (Transfemoral or Transapical only)
  • in patients with symptomatic heart disease due to severe native calcific aortic stenosis (aortic valve area ≤ 1.0 cm2 or aortic valve area index ≤ 0.6 cm2/m2, a mean aortic valve gradient of ≥ 40 mmHg, or a peak aortic-jet velocity of ≥ 4.0 m/s), and with native anatomy appropriate for the 23, 26, or 29 mm valve system, who are judged by a heart team, including a cardiac surgeon, to be at high or greater risk for open surgical therapy (i.e., Society of Thoracic Surgeons operative risk score ≥8% or at a ≥15% risk of mortality at 30 days).
  • Compatible left common carotid artery (6.5 - 10 mm) and brachiocephalic artery (9 - 15 mm) diameters without significant stenosis (\> 70%) as determined by Multi-Slice Computed Tomography (MSCT) scan or equivalent imaging modality
  • The subject and the treating physician agree that the subject will return for all required post-procedure follow-up visit
  • The subject or the subject's legal representative has been informed of the nature of the trial, agrees to its provisions and has provided written informed consent as approved by the IRB of the respective clinical site

You may not qualify if:

  • General
  • Vasculature in the right extremity precluding 6Fr sheath radial or brachial access
  • Inadequate circulation to the right extremity as evidenced by signs of artery occlusion (modified Allen's test) or absence of radial/brachial pulse
  • Hemodialysis shunt, graft, or arterio-venous fistula involving the upper extremity vasculature
  • Evidence of an acute myocardial infarction ≤ 1 month before the intended treatment
  • Aortic valve is a congenital unicuspid or bicuspid valve; or is non-calcified
  • Mixed aortic valve disease (aortic stenosis and aortic regurgitation with predominant aortic regurgitation \>3+)
  • Any therapeutic invasive cardiac procedure resulting in a permanent implant that is performed within 30 days of the index procedure (unless part of planned strategy for treatment of concomitant coronary artery disease)
  • Pre-existing prosthetic heart valve in any position, prosthetic ring, or severe (greater than 3+) mitral insufficiency
  • Blood dyscrasias as defined: Leukopenia, acute anemia, thrombocytopenia, history of bleeding diathesis or coagulopathy
  • Hemodynamic instability requiring inotropic support or mechanical heart assistance.
  • Need for emergency surgery for any reason
  • Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy with or without obstruction
  • Severe ventricular dysfunction with LVEF ≤20%
  • Echocardiographic evidence of intracardiac or aortic mass, thrombus, or vegetation
  • +26 more criteria
