Brief summary

The VIVALL-2 study is a randomized trial to compare the self-expandable supra-annular Allegra and the balloon-expandable intra-annular Edwards transcatheter valve systems in patients with degenerated biological aortic surgical valve.

Detailed description

In the VIVALL.2 study, 104 patients with severely degenerated biological aortic surgical valve accepted for vave-in-valve procedure (transcatheter aortic valve implantation) will be randomized to be treated with the self-expandable supra-annular Allegra or the balloon-expandable intra-annular Edwards systems. The primary end-point will be trans-aortic mean gradient determined by trans-thoracic echocardiography at 30 days. The proportion of patients with moderate or severe prosthesis mismatch at 30 days will be a secondary end-.point. Different countries will participate in the study.

Inclusion criteria

Patients meeting ALL the following criteria will be included: * Patients aged ≥ 18 years. * Severe haemodynamical valve deterioration of a biological aortic valve implanted surgically, including severe valve stenosis (effective aortic valve area \< 1.0 cm2) and/or severe valve regurgitation. * The patient has cardiac symptoms and/or deterioration of left ventricular ejection fraction attributable to the aortic valve disease. * Heart team decision of VIV procedure. * Patient is willing to return at 30 days for TTE and to be clinically contacted at 1 year.

Exclusion criteria

Patients meeting, at least, 1 of the following criteria will be excluded: * Patients who openly express their refusal to participate in the study. * Female patients in gestational age. * Presence or suspicious of biological aortic valve thrombosis. * Known hypersensitivity or contraindication to antithrombotic therapy (or inability to be anticoagulated during the procedure), nitinol, or sensitivity to contrast media which cannot be adequately pre-medicated. * Ongoing sepsis and/or suspicious or diagnosis of endocarditis. * Patients whose life expectancy is \< 1 year due to non-cardiac comorbid conditions. * Medical, social, or psychological conditions that preclude the subject from appropriate consent or adherence to the protocol required follow-up exams. * True inner diameter of the prosthetic valve \> 27 mm. * Transfemoral access inadequate to accommodate an 18F sheath. * Patients included in other clinical trials (excluding registries).
