Brief summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety, effectiveness, and performance of Venus-Neo Surgical Aortic Valve in subjects who are clinically indicated for aortic valve replacement.
Detailed description
This is a prospective, multicenter, non-randomized interventional study to evaluate the safety, effectiveness, and performance of Venus-Neo Surgical Aortic Valve. 155 subjects are estimated to be enrolled in this study. Total enrollment period for this trial is estimated to be 1 year. Follow-up duration is estimated to be 5 years. Overall duration of the trial is estimated to be 6 years. The trial begins with the enrollment of the first subject and ends after the last subject is exited from the trial after completing the last follow-up visit at approximately 5 years, all subjects are fully monitored, all outstanding data queries are resolved.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| primary composite safety endpoint | 1 year | composite safety endpoint at 1 year, including: valve-related mortality, thromboembolism, aortic valve reintervention, structural valve deterioration, major paravalvular leak (defined as moderate or greater paravalvular leak or any paravalvular leak requiring intervention), valve thrombosis, endocarditis |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| secondary composite safety endpoint | 2 through 5 Years | safety is assessed over 1-year timeframe by comparing the occurrence of specific safety endpoints to the objective performance criteria (OPC) reported in Table I.1 in ISO:5840-2:2021(E), Annex I, Methods of evaluating clinical data against objective performance criteria |
| Occurrence of each of the following adverse events | baseline, pre-discharge, 30 days, 6 months, 12 months and annually until 5 years thereafter | Occurrence of each of the following adverse events until 5 years, including: mortality, valve-related mortality, thromboembolism, aortic valve reintervention, structural valve deterioration, non-structural valve deterioration, all paravalvular leak, major paravalvular leak, valve thrombosis, endocarditis, all hemorrhage, major hemorrhage, bioprosthetic valve explant, hemolysis |
Other
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Clinically acceptable bioprosthetic valve performance | baseline, pre-discharge, 30 days, 6 months, 12 months and annually until 5 years thereafter | Clinically acceptable bioprosthetic valve performance until 5 years: clinically acceptable effective orifice area (EOA), mean pressure gradient (MPG) \<20mmHg, freedom from moderate or greater regurgitation (transvalvular and paravalvular), freedom from aortic valve reintervention, freedom from clinically significant bioprosthetic valve thrombosis |
| Procedure success | pre-discharge | Procedure success at pre-discharge: freedom from valve-related mortality, freedom from aortic valve reintervention, intended performance of bioprosthetic valve (mean gradient \<20 mmHg, peak velocity \<3 m/s, and less than moderate aortic regurgitation) |
| New York Heart Association (NYHA) classification | baseline, pre-discharge, 30 days, 6 months, 12 months and annually until 5 years thereafter | New York Heart Association (NYHA) classification until 5 years |
