Outcomes of Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation in Oncology Patients With Severe Aortic Stenosis (TOP-AS)

March 26, 2019 updated by: Uri Landes, Rabin Medical Center

TOP-AS Registry: Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation in Oncology Patients With Severe Aortic Stenosis

As for today, transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is indicated only in symptomatic patients with severe aortic stenosis (AS) at high surgical risk. As cancer therapy improves, some AS patients suffering active malignancy (including advanced metastatic diseases) may be more endangered by their untreated valvular disease than their oncological disease. Among these patients, TAVI may be indicated before cancer related surgery or cardiotoxic anti-cancer therapy in order to achieve better anti-cancer therapy outcomes. Individualized life expectancy assumptions should be evaluated by the heart team in the clinical decision-making process as an essential factor in weighing the risk-benefit ratio for oncologic patients undergoing TAVI. A multicenter, international TAVI in Oncology Patients with AS (TOP-AS) registry was designed to collect data on patients with an active malignancy and severe AS undergoing TAVI. The aim of the study is to evaluate the outcomes, benefits and risks of oncology patients undergoing TAVI, mainly the patients' survival and cause of death and also the interactions between the valvular and the oncologic conditions.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

The TAVI program was initiated in Rabin Medical Center in 2008 and the institutional review board approved the prospective collection of our TAVI Database (i.e. RECORD TAVI). During these years, several oncology patients were treated with TAVI. Also, in daily practice a few asymptomatic AS patients in whom TAVI was indicated before cancer related surgery / cardiotoxic anti-cancer therapy underwent TAVI.

This study will initiate a multicenter, international registry designed to collect data on TAVI in cancer patients in correspondence to medical records within each center. Data will be collected retrospectively for cases performed before registry initiation and prospectively thereafter. All inconsistencies regarding data collection will be resolved directly with local investigators and on-site data monitoring. Patients' inclusion approval is by a local ethics committee in each center.

Saving Data: Data will be recorded in Excel table; each center and patient will receive a unique code so the data file will be anonymous.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

  • Child
  • Adult
  • Older Adult

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Patients survival
Time Frame: 2 years
Patients survival in days
2 years

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
New York Heart Association Functional Classification (NYHA FC)
Time Frame: 2 years
Provides information regarding patients functional status on scale of 1-4.
2 years
Cause of death
