Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Technical Success

    Defined as successful vascular access, delivery, and deployment of the Lotus Valve; successful retrieval with the Lotus Next Generation delivery system; and correct positioning of a single Lotus Valve in the proper anatomical location (reported as percent of subjects implanted with a Lotus Valve). Reported as percent of subjects.

    Immediately post-procedure (patient discharged from operative room)

Secondary Outcomes (29)

  • Successful repositioning of the study valve if repositioning is attempted

    Immediately post-procedure (patient discharged from operative room)

  • Successful retrieval of the study valve if retrieval is attempted

    Immediately post-procedure (patient discharged from operative room)

  • Severe or moderate paravalvular aortic regurgitation as measured by echocardiography and assessed by an independent core laboratory

    At discharge from hospital or at 7 days post-procedure (whichever comes first), 30 days, 6 months, and 12 months post procedure

  • Mild, trace/trivial, or no paravalvular aortic regurgitation as measured by echocardiography and assessed by an independent core laboratory

    At discharge from hospital or at 7 days post-procedure (whichever comes first), 30 days, 6 months, and 12 months post procedure

  • Mean aortic valve pressure gradient as measured by echocardiography and assessed by an independent core laboratory

    At discharge from hospital or at 7 days post-procedure (whichever comes first), 30 days, 6 months, and 12 months post procedure

  • +24 more secondary outcomes

Eligibility Criteria

Age70 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsOlder Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Subject is ≥70 years of age
  • Subject has documented calcific native aortic valve stenosis with an initial aortic valve area (AVA) of ≤1.0 cm2 (or AVA index of ≤0.6 cm2/m2) and either a mean pressure gradient ≥40 mm Hg or a jet velocity ≥4 m/s, as measured by echocardiography.
  • Subject has a documented aortic annulus size between ≥20 and ≤27.5 mm based on pre-procedure diagnostic imaging
  • Subject has symptomatic aortic valve stenosis with NYHA Functional Class ≥ II.
  • Subject is considered high risk for surgical valve replacement based on at least one of the following:
  • Society of Thoracic Surgeons (STS) score ≥8%, and/or
  • Agreement by the heart team (which must include an in-person evaluation by an experienced cardiac surgeon) that subject is at high operative risk of serious morbidity or mortality with surgical valve replacement.
  • Heart team (which must include an experienced cardiac surgeon) assessment that the subject is likely to benefit from valve replacement
  • Subject (or legal representative) understands the study requirements and the treatment procedures, and provides written informed consent.
  • Subject, family member and/or legal representative agree(s) and subject is capable of returning to the study hospital for all required scheduled follow up visits.

You may not qualify if:

  • Subject has a congenital unicuspid or bicuspid aortic valve.
  • Subject with an acute myocardial infarction within 30 days of the index procedure (defined as Q-wave MI or non-Q-wave MI with total CK elevation ≥ twice normal in the presence of creatine kinase-myoglobin band (CK-MB) elevation and/or troponin level elevation).
  • Subject has had a cerebrovascular accident or transient ischemic attack within the past 6 months, or has any permanent neurologic defect prior to study enrollment.
  • Subject is on dialysis or has serum creatinine level \>3.0 mg/dL or 265 µml/L.
  • Subject has a pre-existing prosthetic heart valve (aortic or mitral) or a prosthetic ring in any position.
  • Subject has ≥3+ mitral regurgitation, ≥3+ aortic regurgitation or ≥3+ tricuspid regurgitation (i.e., subject cannot have more than moderate mitral, aortic or tricuspid regurgitation).
  • Subject has a need for emergency surgery for any reason.
  • Subject has a history of endocarditis within 12 months of index procedure or evidence of an active systemic infection or sepsis.
  • Subject has echocardiographic evidence of intra-cardiac mass, thrombus or vegetation.
  • Subject has Hgb \<9 g/dL, platelet count \<50,000 cells/mm3 or \>700,000 cells/mm3, or white blood cell count \<1,000 cells/mm3.
  • Subject is receiving chronic (≥72 hours) anticoagulation therapy (warfarin), and cannot tolerate concomitant therapy with aspirin or clopidogrel (subjects who require chronic anticoagulation must additionally be able to be treated with either aspirin or clopidogrel).\*
  • Subject has active peptic ulcer disease or gastrointestinal bleed within the past 3 months, other bleeding diathesis or coagulopathy or will refuse transfusions.
  • Subject has known hypersensitivity to contrast agents that cannot be adequately pre-medicated, or has known hypersensitivity to aspirin, all thienopyridines, heparin, nickel, titanium, or polyurethanes.
  • Subject has a life expectancy of less than 12 months due to non-cardiac, co-morbid conditions based on the assessment of the investigator at the time of enrollment.
  • Subject has hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy.
  • +9 more criteria
