COMPASSION S3 - Evaluation of the SAPIEN 3 Transcatheter Heart Valve in Patients With Pulmonary Valve Dysfunction

This study will demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of the Edwards Lifesciences SAPIEN 3/SAPIEN 3 Ultra RESILIA Transcatheter Heart Valve (THV) Systems in subjects with a dysfunctional right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) conduit or previously implanted valve in the pulmonic position with a clinical indication for intervention.

Key information

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Weight ≥ 20 kg (44 lbs.)
  • Dysfunctional RVOT conduit or previously implanted valve in the pulmonic position with a clinical indication for intervention and with a landing zone diameter ≥ 16.5 mm and ≤ 29 mm immediately prior to study device insertion as per the Instructions for Use
  • Subject presents with at least moderate PR and/or mean RVOT gradient ≥ 35 mmHg.
  • The subject/subject's legally authorized representative has been informed of the nature of the study, agrees to its provisions and has provided written informed consent.

Exclusion criteria

  • Active infection requiring current antibiotic therapy (if temporary illness, subject may be a candidate 2 weeks after discontinuation of antibiotics)
  • History of or active endocarditis (active treatment with antibiotics) within the past 180 days
  • Leukopenia, anemia, thrombocytopenia or any known blood clotting disorder
  • Inappropriate anatomy for femoral introduction and delivery of the study valve
  • Need for concomitant atrial septal defect or ventricular septal defect closure or other concomitant interventional procedures other than pulmonary artery or branch pulmonary artery stenting or angioplasty
  • Angiographic evidence of coronary artery compression that would result from transcatheter pulmonic valve implantation (TPVI)
  • Interventional/surgical procedures within 30 days prior to the TPVI procedure.
  • Any planned surgical, percutaneous coronary or peripheral procedure to be performed within the 30 day follow-up from the TPVI procedure.
  • History of or current intravenous drug use
  • Major or progressive non-cardiac disease resulting in a life expectancy of less than one year
  • Known hypersensitivity to aspirin or heparin and cannot be treated with other antiplatelet and/or antithrombotic medications
  • Known hypersensitivity to cobalt-chromium, nickel or contrast media that cannot be adequately premedicated
  • Participating in another investigational drug or device study that has not reached its primary endpoint.
  • Female who is lactating or pregnant

Primary outcomes

  1. THV dysfunction

    Time frame: 1 year

    Defined as a non-hierarchical composite of: RVOT reintervention, Moderate or greater total pulmonary regurgitation (PR) via Transthoracic Echocardiography (TTE), Mean RVOT gradient > 40 mmHg via TTE

Secondary outcomes

  1. Device Success

    Time frame: Discharge, expected to be within 1-5 days post-procedure

    Defined as a composite of: 1) Single THV implanted in the desired location, 2) RV-PA peak-to-peak gradient < 35 mmHg post-implantation, 3) Less than moderate PR by discharge TTE (or earliest evaluable TTE), 4) Free of explant at 24 hours post-implantation.

  2. Mean RVOT gradient

    Time frame: 6 months

  3. Paravalvular and total PR

    Time frame: 6 months

  4. RVOT reintervention

    Time frame: 6 months

  5. Coronary artery compression requiring intervention

    Time frame: 30 days

  6. Major vascular complications

    Time frame: 30 days

  7. Life-threatening or disabling bleeding

    Time frame: 30 days

  8. THV frame fracture

    Time frame: 6 months

  9. Device-related endocarditis

    Time frame: 1 year

  10. Death (all-cause, procedural and device-related)

    Time frame: 1 year
