About this trial

Prospective, single-arm, multi-center, continued access study of the Autus Size-Adjustable Valve in pediatric patients aged 18 months to 16 years requiring surgical pulmonary valve replacement. The Autus Valve may be expanded pre-implant to match the subject's body size. Subjects will be evaluated prior to the Autus Valve implant procedure, immediately post-implantation, at hospital discharge, 30 days, 6 months, and annually through 10 years.

The Autus Valve may be expanded post-implant via transcatheter balloon dilation to accommodate growth of the subject.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Age 18 months to 16 years.

Male or female.

Subject has a native or repaired right ventricular outflow tract.

Subject has been recommended for surgical pulmonary valve replacement by treating clinical team (cardiologist and cardiac surgeon).

Disqualifiers

Subject requires valve replacement in a non-pulmonary position.

Subject has a prosthetic valve at other valve position or will need a prosthetic valve at other valve position (i.e., anticipate additional valve replacements needed within 3 years).

Subject has pulmonary arterial hypertension (defined as mean PA pressure ≥25 mmHg).

Subject has a known history of pulmonary atresia and major aortopulmonary collaterals.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Primary Safety Endpoint

Composite Endpoint: Freedom from a device-related complication through 30 days post-valve implantation as adjudicated by an independent Clinical Events Committee (CEC), including: * Death; * Valve thrombosis requiring reintervention; * Symptomatic thromboembolism.

Time frame
30 Days post-valve implantation
2

Primary Effectiveness Endpoint

Acceptable hemodynamic performance at 6 months post-valve implantation, defined as a mean RVOT gradient \<=40 mmHg and less than moderate pulmonary regurgitation by transthoracic echo (TTE) as assessed by the Echocardiography Core Laboratory (ECL), and no Autus Valve reintervention except for valve expansion to address prosthesis-patient mismatch, as assessed by the CEC.

Time frame
6 Months post-valve implantation

Secondary outcomes

Other outcomes

1

Other Safety Outcome - Freedom from a device-related complication post-valve implantation - composite

Freedom from a device-related complication post-valve implantation - CEC Adjudicated. The following composite safety outcome will be evaluated at 6 months, and annually through 10 years post-valve implantation. The composite outcome includes device-related: * Death; * Valve thrombosis requiring intervention; * Symptomatic thromboembolism.

Time frame
6 months and annually through a minimum of 10 years and up to 11 years post-valve implantation
2

Other Safety Outcome -Mortality

The following measure will be evaluated by an independent Clinical Events Committee: • Mortality, including: all cause, cardiac-related, procedure-related and device-related

Time frame
30 days, 6 months and annually through a minimum of 10 years and up to 11 years post-valve implantation
3

Other Safety Outcome - Valve thrombosis

The following measure will be evaluated by an independent Clinical Events Committee: • Valve thrombosis

Time frame
30 days, 6 months and annually through a minimum of 10 years and up to 11 years post-valve implantation
4

Other Safety Outcome - Thromboembolism

The following measure will be evaluated by an independent Clinical Events Committee: • Thromboembolism

Time frame
30 days, 6 months and annually through a minimum of 10 years and up to 11 years post-valve implantation
