Trial summary

The CLEVER-TAVR cohort (Cerebral Lesion and Neurocognitive Status Changes after Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement) is a multicenter observational cohort study. The investigators will screen consecutive patients ≥65 years of age before TAVR and enroll those that complete the procedure successfully. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Cerebral Lesion and Neurocognitive Status Changes After Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement:A Prospective Multicenter Observational Cohort Study.

The CLEVER-TAVR cohort (Cerebral Lesion and Neurocognitive Status Changes after Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement) is a multicenter observational cohort study. The investigators will screen consecutive patients ≥65 years of age before TAVR and enroll those that complete the procedure successfully. The investigators will assess the neurocognitive function using multiple tests with Reliable Change Index before TAVR and 7, 30, 90, 180 and 360 days after TAVR. The primary endpoint will be major adverse cardiovascular and cerebral events(MACCE, defined according to the Valve Academic Research Consortium-2 data dictionary) at 1 year.

Read the detailed description

Study Design The CLEVER-TAVR cohort (Cerebral Lesion and Neurocognitive Status Changes after Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement) is a multicenter prospective observational study. Patients with aortic stenosis who successfully undergo TAVR procedure from January 2021 to December 2021 will be enrolled in this study according to the inclusion criteria. Preoperative cognitive function, DW-MRI evaluation and baseline data will be recorded. All patients should be followed up for 1 year, including telephone follow-up once a month to record the main end-point events, and clinic follow-up at 30, 90, 180, 360 days after TAVR. Laboratory examination, electrocardiogram, color Doppler ultrasound and other examinations will be collected and recorded. The changes of cognitive function and brain imaging (DW-MRI) will be evaluated before discharge(7 days), 30, 90, 180, 360 days after procedure. The primary endpoint will be major adverse cardiovascular and cerebral events(MACCE), including all-cause death, stroke, acute kidney injury, myocardial infarction, bleeding complications, vascular complications, permanent pacemaker implantation, conduction block and arrhythmia, valve related complications. The postoperative valve function, life quality and other complications related to TAVR will also be recorded.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. major adverse cardiovascular and cerebral events

    Defined as VARC-2, major adverse cardiovascular and cerebral events(MACCE), including all-cause death, stroke, acute kidney injury, myocardial infarction, bleeding complications, vascular complications, permanent pacemaker implantation, conduction block and arrhythmia, valve related complications.

    Measured: 1 year.

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Cognitive Decline.

    Cognitive Decline is defined as Mini-mental State Examination(MMSE) score decreased by more than 3 points. The MMSE is a 30-point test, the lower the score, the worse the severity (24-30: No cognitive impairment, 18-23: mild Cognitive impairment, 0-17: severe cognitive impairment).

    Measured: 1 year.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Aortic Stenosis, run by Second Xiangya Hospital of Central South University at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Dec 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Shenghua Zhou (+8673185292012, zhoushenghua@csu.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

major adverse cardiovascular and cerebral events (time frame: 1 year.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 24 Dec 2020.
