The FDA has the authority to require sponsors to perform a post-approval study (or studies) at the time of approval of a premarket approval (PMA), humanitarian device exemption (HDE), or product development protocol (PDP) application. Post-approval studies can provide patients, health care professionals, the device industry, the FDA and other stakeholders information on the continued safety and effectiveness (or continued probable benefit, in the case of an HDE) of approved medical devices. This database allows you to search Post-Approval Study information by applicant or device information.

Detailed Study Protocol Parameters
Study Objectives This is a multi-center, non-randomized trial, registry study designed to follow at least 101 patients for 6 years (obtaining at least 606 patient years). The study will evaluate if there an increased incidence and risk of aortic regurgitation in a patient population 70 years of age or younger implanted with the ATS Medical, Inc., ATS 3f Aortic bioprosthesis, Model 1000 (Equine Pericardial bioprosthesis) undergoing isolated aortic valve replacement of his / her native aortic valve, or replacement of a failed prosthesis.
Study Population For patients undergoing isolated aortic valve replacement of his / her native aortic valve, or replacement of a failed prosthesis who are 70 years of age or younger at implant.
Sample Size 101 patients 70 years of age or less across 8 sites
Key Study Endpoints Hemodynamic performance, specifically the proportion of regurgitation, will be used to evaluate the safety of the valve. Hemodynamic performance will be evaluated with doppler echocardiographic studies at 3-6 months, 11-14 months and annually up to the 6 year postoperative evaluation. Values of mean gradient, peak gradient, EOA, EOA index (EOA/body surface area), performance index (EOA/pre-implant internal orifice area), CO, CO index, and valvular regurgitation will be presented.
Follow-up Visits and Length of Follow-up Patients will be enrolled and followed preoperative, operative, at discharge (or postoperatively at less than 30 days, whichever comes last), 3-6 months, 11-14 months and annually (plus/minus 2 months) thereafter until they reach the six years follow-up visit. Doppler echocardiography is required at 3-6 months, 11-14 months and annually up to the 6 year postoperative evaluation.
Interim or Final Data Summary
Interim Results A total of 5 patients have been enrolled and implanted with the study device. Three (3) incidences of regurgitation were reported: 2 perivalvular leaks and 1 nonstructural valve dysfunction - valve bioprosthesis mismatch.
Actual Number of Patients Enrolled 34; There were 26 eligible subjects implanted with the Model 1000 valve including 14 prospectively enrolled subjects and 12 retrospectively enrolled subjects.
Actual Number of Sites Enrolled 8
Patient Follow-up Rate 90.9% at 4 years, 85.7% at 5 years
Final Safety Findings Adjudicated Events
Non Structural dysfunction 3, major perivalvular leak 3, Structural valve deterioration 2, Thromboembolism 5, bleeding event 1, severe respiratory sepsis with hypovolemic shock 1
Explants 6,

Other Events: Reoperation 3
Final Effect Findings Six (6) of 26 (23.1%) study subjects, experienced aortic regurgitation (AR) of moderate or greater severity. Among these 6 subjects, the moderate or greater regurgitation was transvalvular in 5 subjects and perivalvular in 1 subject, and these regurgitations required valve explant in 5 subjects.
Study Strengths & Weaknesses The study experienced difficulty with recruiting eligible subjects
Recommendations for Labeling Changes None
