Authorised Phase II and Phase III (Integrated) All adult patients with successful transfemoral trans-aortic valve implantation (TAVI ) for symptomatic aortic stenosis (AS) with no other indication for long term antiplatelet or anticoagulant therapy

Short versus long antiplatelet therapy after TAVI

EU CTIS ID: 2023-508208-40-00

What this study is testing

Non-inferiority of the experimental arm (90 days therapy with 75 to 100 mg oral aspirin) compared to standard arm (12 months therapy with 75 to 100 mg oral aspirin) on a composite clinical event at 12 months follow-up

Who can take part

You may be able to join if

  • • Age ≥ 18
  • • Successful transfemoral TAVI for symptomatic aortic stenosis as defined by VARC-33 o Successful access, delivery of the device, and retrieval of the delivery system o Correct positioning of a single prosthetic heart valve into the proper anatomical location o Freedom from surgery or intervention related to the device (excluding permanent pacemaker) or to a major vascular or access-related, or cardiac structural complication
  • • Written informed consent
  • • Social security affiliated
  • • French speaking
  • • Male or, post-menopausal -with no menses for 12 months without an alternative medical cause- or permanently sterilized -hystercetomy, bilateral salpingectomy or bilateral oophorectomy- female

You likely can't join if

  • • Un-successful TAVI defined by the absence of any of the above-mentioned criteria defining successful TAVI
  • • Women of childbearing potential: non menopaused -with no menses for 12 months without an alternative medical cause- and not permanently sterilized -hystercetomy, bilateral salpingectomy or bilateral oophorectomy-
  • • Alternative non-femoral-approach TAVI: apical, direct trans-aortic, subclavian, axillary or carotid approaches
  • • TAVI for other indications than aortic stenosis (pure aortic regurgitation)
  • • Valve in valve TAVI
  • • Any indication for long term antiplatelet therapy: (e.g. coronary artery disease, cerebrovascular disease, peripheral arterial disease…) at any time prior to randomization
