NCT05758662

Brief Summary

A multicentre cross-sectional cohort study to assess the difference in bioprosthetic micro-calcification activity, detected with 18F-NaF PET-CT, as early marker of transcatheter valve degeneration, between patients with vs. without subclinical leaflet thrombosis at five years after TAVI; and between patients with intra-annular vs. supra-annular TAVI prostheses.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Quantified bioprosthetic micro-calcification activity

    18F-NaF uptake originating from any of the bioprosthetic valve leaflets assessed with 18F-NaF Positron Emission Tomography

    5 years after TAVI

  • Subclinical Leaflet Thrombosis

    Hypo Attenuated Leaflet Thickening (HALT) assessed with cardiac Computed Tomography

    5 years after TAVI

  • Valve dysfunction

    Transvalvular gradients assessed with transthoracic echocardiography

    5 years after TAVI

Study Arms (2)

Intra-annular

Patients with an intra-annular Sapien TAVI prosthesis

Diagnostic Test: 18F-sodium fluoride Positron Emission Tomography (18F-NaF PET), Cardiac Computed Tomography (CT), Transthoracic Echocardiography (TTE)

Supra-annular

Patients with a supra-annular CoreValve Evolut TAVI prosthesis

Diagnostic Test: 18F-sodium fluoride Positron Emission Tomography (18F-NaF PET), Cardiac Computed Tomography (CT), Transthoracic Echocardiography (TTE)

Interventions

Patients undergo a hybrid 18F-NaF-PET CT scan and TTE at five years after TAVI

Intra-annularSupra-annular

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)
Sampling MethodNon-Probability Sample
Study Population

Patients who underwent TAVI about five years ago will be consecutively screened for eligibility from the ongoing, prospective, TAVI registries of the participating study sites and will be asked to undergo hybrid PET-CT imaging and transthoracic echocardiography.

You may qualify if:

  • Successful TAVI with Sapien or CoreValve Evolut prosthesis about 5 years ago
  • Able to undergo hybrid 18F-NaF PET-CT imaging and transthoracic echocardiography
  • Written informed consent

You may not qualify if:

  • Temporary or chronic oral anticoagulation use after TAVI
  • Known severe renal insufficiency
  • Known severe paravalvular regurgitation
  • History of valve-in-valve procedure
  • History of aortic valve re-intervention (including percutaneous paravalvular leak closure)
