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 Foldax Tria Aortic Heart Valve is indicated as a replacement for diseased, damaged, or malfunctioning native aortic heart valve via open heart surgery. The study is a single open are label non-randomized multi- center clinical trial. Up to 10 sites in the country of India will enroll up to 50 patients. These patients will follow the study schedule for 1 year after implantation.

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
Primary Effectiveness Endpoint: Hemodynamic Performance Assessment
Time Frame: 12 months following patient enrollment completion
Hemodynamic performance parameters are mmHG mean gradient and derived Effective Orifice Area (EOA). Success is defined as clinically significant improvement in hemodynamic performance (Effective Orifice Area (EOA)) at one year based on literature reports for surgical aortic valve replacement.
12 months following patient enrollment completion
Primary Effectiveness Endpoint: New York Heart Association Improvement Assessment
Time Frame: 12 months following patient enrollment completion
Clinically significant improvement (one grade) in the New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional classification status at 365 days compared to baseline. a. Class I - No symptoms and no limitations in ordinary physical activity, e.g. shortness of breath when walking, climbing stairs etc. b. Class II - Mild symptoms (mild shortness of breath and/or angina) and slight limitation during ordinary activity. c. Class III - Marked limitation in activity due to symptoms, even during less-than-ordinary activity, e.g. walking short distances (20-100m). Comfortable only at rest. d. Class IV - Severe limitations. Experiences symptoms even while at rest. Mostly bedbound patients.
12 months following patient enrollment completion
Primary Safety Endpoints: Clinical Outcomes Event Assessment
Time Frame: 12 months following patient enrollment completion
The rate of adverse events will be compared to clinical outcomes for surgically implanted heart valves reported in the literature: a) thromboembolism, b) valve thrombosis, c) major paravalvular leak, d) major hemorrhage, e) endocarditis, f) all-caused death, g) valve related death, h) valve related reoperation, i) valve explant, j) hemorrhage, k) all-cause reoperation
12 months following patient enrollment completion
