NCT Number: NCT04722250
The purpose of this trial is to generate clinical evidence on valve safety and performance of self-expanding (SE) versus balloon-expandable (BE) transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) in subjects with a small aortic annulus and symptomatic severe native aortic stenosis.
Additionally, a stress echocardiography sub-study will be conducted as part of the SMART Trial at select sites. The purpose of the sub-study is to evaluate performance of SE versus BE TAVR in subjects with a small aortic annulus and symptomatic severe native aortic stenosis after undergoing exercise stress echocardiographic testing.
This study is active but is not currently recruiting participants.

This is a prospective, multi-center, international, randomized controlled, post-market trial.
The primary objectives of the trial are to demonstrate clinical non-inferiority and hemodynamic superiority of the Evolut PRO/PRO+/FX System when compared to subjects treated with the SAPIEN 3/3 Ultra System at 12 months post-procedure.
Subjects will be randomized on a 1:1 basis to receive TAVR with either a Medtronic SE Transcatheter Aortic Valve (TAV) or an Edwards BE Transcatheter Heart Valve (THV). Data will be collected at pre- and post-procedure, at discharge, at 30 days, and once a year until the 5-year follow-up is completed.
Product Names:
The exercise stress echocardiographic testing at select SMART Trial sites seeks to evaluate the performance of the prosthetic aortic valve during exercise. The stress echocardiogram assessment will be conducted as part of the 12-month visit for participating subjects.
Healthy volunteers accepted: No
Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

EuroQol Group developed this Quality of Life (QOL) questionnaire referred to as EQ-5D that includes a descriptive system comprising five dimensions: mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort and anxiety/depression. Each dimension has 5 levels: no problems, slight problems, moderate problems, severe problems and extreme problems.
The patient is asked to indicate his/her health state by ticking the box next to the most appropriate statement in each of the five dimensions. The answers given to ED-5D can be converted into EQ-5D index and utility scores anchored at 0 for death and 1 for perfect health. The EQ-5D Index Score is calculated for each study participant and the descriptive statistical summary of the EQ-5D score for the study population is provided. The EQ-5D Visual Analog Scale (VAS) Score is a scale numbered 0 to 100 (0 is the worse health the patient can imagine and 100 is the best health the patient can imagine).
Time frame: 30 days, 12 Months and 2 Years
Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire (KCCQ): Quantifies physical function, symptoms, social function, selfefficacy and knowledge, and quality of life. Scores are transformed to a range of 0-100, in which higher scores reflect better health status.
Note: This is the overall summary score for KCCQ.
