PARTNER 3 Trial - Aortic Valve-in-Valve

A Prospective, Single-Arm, Multicenter Study to Investigate the Safety and Effectiveness of SAPIEN 3/SAPIEN 3 Ultra Transcatheter Heart Valve Implantation in Patients With a Failing Aortic Bioprosthetic Valve

Important: This information is not medical advice. Talk to your doctor about whether a clinical trial is right for you.

About This Trial

This study will assess the safety and effectiveness of the SAPIEN 3/SAPIEN 3 Ultra transcatheter heart valve (THV) in patients with a failing aortic bioprosthetic valve.

Who May Be Eligible (Plain English)

Who May Qualify: 1. Failing surgical or transcatheter bioprosthetic valve in the aortic position demonstrating ≥ moderate stenosis and/or ≥ moderate insufficiency. 2. Bioprosthetic valve with a true internal diameter (True ID) of 18.5 mm to 28.5 mm. 3. NYHA Functional Class ≥ II. 4. Heart Team agrees the patient is low to intermediate risk. 5. Heart Team agrees valve implantation will likely benefit the patient. 6. The study patient has been informed of the nature of the study, agrees to its provisions and has provided written willing to sign a consent form. Who Should NOT Join This Trial: 1. Surgical or transcatheter valve in the mitral position (mitral rings are not an exclusion) 2. Severe regurgitation (\> 3+) or stenosis of any other valve 3. Failing valve has moderate or severe paravalvular regurgitation 4. Failing valve is unstable, rocking, or not structurally intact 5. Increased risk of coronary obstruction by prosthetic leaflets of the failing valve. 6. Increased risk of embolization of THV 7. Known bioprosthetic valve with residual mean gradient \> 20 mmHg at the end of the index procedure for implantation of the original valve 8. Iliofemoral vessel characteristics that would preclude safe placement of the introducer sheath (Transfemoral) 9. Anatomical characteristics that would preclude safe access to the ascending aorta (Transaortic) 10. Anatomical characteristics that would preclude safe access to the apex (Transapical) 11. Evidence of an acute myocardial infarction ≤ 30 days before enrollment 12. Any therapeutic invasive cardiac procedure resulting in a permanent implant that is performed within 30 days prior to the index procedure. Implantation of a permanent pacemaker or implantable cardioverter defibrillator is not considered an exclusion. 13. Patients with planned concomitant surgical or transcatheter ablation for Atrial Fibrillation ...See full criteria on ClinicalTrials.gov Always talk to your doctor about whether this trial is right for you.
