Moderate Aortic Valve Stenosis
Conditions
Keywords
aortic, stenosis, moderate, valve, TAVR
Brief summary
Obtain safety and effectiveness data to support indication expansion for the Medtronic TAVR System to include patients with moderate, AS.
Detailed description
Multi-center, international, prospective, randomized study. Subjects will be randomized to either transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) with the Evolut PRO+ TAVR System, or Evolut FX System, and guideline-directed management (GDMT) or GDMT alone.
Interventions
Patients will have a Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR) with either an Evolut PRO+ TAVR, or Evolut FX TAVR, heart valve, and given clinical site-determined guideline-directed management and therapy (GDMT).
