Brief Summary

This study will confirm the procedural safety and performance of the SAPIEN 3 Ultra System in subjects with severe, calcific AS who are at intermediate operative risk for standard aortic valve replace...

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Severe, calcific aortic stenosis meeting the following transthoracic echocardiogram criteria:
  • Aortic valve area ≤ 1.0 cm2 OR aortic valve area index ≤ 0.6 cm2/m2
  • Jet velocity ≥ 4.0 m/s OR mean gradient ≥ 40 mmHg
  • New York Heart Association functional class ≥ II
  • Judged by the Heart Team to be at intermediate risk for open surgical therapy
  • The subject has been informed of the nature of the study, agrees to its provisions and has provided written informed consent.

Exclusion

  • Native aortic annulus size unsuitable for available THV sizes on 3D imaging analysis
  • Aortic valve is unicuspid, bicuspid or non-calcified
  • Pre-existing mechanical or bioprosthetic valve in any position.
  • Severe aortic regurgitation (\> 3+)
  • Severe mitral regurgitation (\> 3+) or ≥ moderate stenosis
  • Ventricular dysfunction with left ventricular ejection fraction \< 30%
  • Cardiac imaging evidence of intracardiac mass, thrombus or vegetation
  • Evidence of an acute myocardial infarction ≤ 30 days before the valve implant procedure
  • Subjects with planned concomitant ablation for atrial fibrillation
  • Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy with obstruction
  • Coronary anatomy that increases the risk of coronary artery obstruction post-TAVR
  • Complex coronary artery disease:
  • Unprotected left main coronary artery
  • SYNTAX score \> 32
  • Heart Team assessment that optimal revascularization cannot be performed
  • Iliofemoral vessel characteristics that would preclude safe placement of the introducer sheath
  • Significant abdominal or thoracic aortic disease that would preclude safe passage of the delivery system
  • Active bacterial endocarditis within 180 days of the valve implant procedure
  • Stroke or transient ischemic attack within 90 days of the valve implant procedure
  • Symptomatic carotid or vertebral artery disease or successful treatment of carotid stenosis within 30 days of the valve implant procedure
  • Severe lung disease (Forced Ejection Volume 1 \< 50% predicted) or currently on home oxygen
  • Severe pulmonary hypertension
  • Hemodynamic or respiratory instability requiring inotropic support, mechanical ventilation or mechanical heart assistance within 30 days of the valve implant procedure
  • History of cirrhosis or any active liver disease
  • Renal insufficiency and/or renal replacement therapy at the time of screening
  • Leukopenia, anemia, thrombocytopenia, history of bleeding diathesis or coagulopathy or hypercoagulable states
  • Inability to tolerate or condition precluding treatment with antithrombotic therapy during or after the valve implant procedure
  • Absolute contraindications or allergy to iodinated contrast that cannot be adequately treated with pre-medication
  • Significant frailty as determined by the Heart Team
  • Subject refuses blood products
  • Body mass index \> 50 kg/m2
  • Estimated life expectancy \< 24 months
  • Positive urine or serum pregnancy test in female subjects of childbearing potential
  • Currently participating in an investigational drug or another device study.
