N/A
Waitlist Available
Research Sponsored by Anteris Technologies Ltd.
Eligibility Criteria Checklist
Specific guidelines that determine who can or cannot participate in a clinical trial Must have
Symptomatic, severe native aortic stenosis in subjects 65 years or older
Requires aortic valve replacement and is indicated for TAVR as determined by the Heart Team (composed of an experienced interventional cardiologist and an experienced cardiac surgeon)
Must not have
A known hypersensitivity or contraindication to any of the following which cannot be adequately pre-medicated: aspirin, heparin, nitinol (titanium or nickel), ticlopidine and clopidogrel, contrast media
GI bleeding within the past 3 months
Timeline
Screening 3 weeks
Treatment Varies
Follow Up 1year

Summary
This trial tests a new valve system to treat severe aortic stenosis, to see if it's safe and effective.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for people aged 65 or older with severe aortic stenosis who have symptoms and need valve replacement. They must understand the study, agree to follow-ups, be suitable for transfemoral DurAVR™ THV delivery, and have an appropriate heart anatomy. Exclusions include inoperability, participation in other trials, certain vulnerable groups, various heart conditions like unicuspid/bicuspid valves or recent infarctions, blood disorders, untreated significant coronary disease, shock states or severe organ dysfunction.
What is being tested?
The trial tests the safety and feasibility of the DurAVR™ THV System for treating symptomatic severe native aortic stenosis. It involves replacing the patient's aortic valve using this system through a transfemoral approach (via the femoral artery).
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects are not listed here, similar procedures may involve risks such as bleeding at the catheter insertion site, infection risk from invasive procedures; allergic reactions to materials used like nitinol (titanium or nickel), contrast media; potential damage to blood vessels; irregular heartbeats; stroke risk during procedure.
