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 Characterize long-term clinical outcomes for the Evolut PRO+, Evolut FX, and Evolut FX+ Systems in patients with a failing aortic transcatheter bioprosthetic valve after PMA approval through the Society of Thoracic Surgeons (STS)/American College of Cardiology (ACC) Transcatheter Valve Therapy (TVT) registry-based surveillance.
Study Population All patients entered into the TVT Registry database and treated with the Evolut PRO+, Evolut FX, or Evolut FX+ System for the first 2 years following device approval or a total of 500 consecutively treated such patients, whichever is greater, will be included as part of this registry-based post-approval surveillance.
Sample Size All consecutive patients treated within the first 2 years following device approval or a total of 500 consecutively treated such patients, whichever is greater, that are entered into the Society of Thoracic Surgeons (STS)/American College of Cardiology (ACC) Transcatheter Valve Therapy (TVT) Registry (enrollment period).
Key Study Endpoints Primary Endpoints
• Device success (intra-procedure) collected as device implanted successfully in TVT-R
• Clinical event outcomes at 30 days and 1 year (collected in TVT-R):
o All-cause mortality
o All stroke
o Life-threatening / major bleeding
o New requirement for dialysis
o Myocardial infarction
o Repeat procedure for valve-related dysfunction (surgical or interventional therapy), collected as aortic valve reintervention
o Neurological (non-stroke) collected as transient ischemic attack
o Vascular complications (major and minor)
• Quality of life (as measured by KCCQ) outcomes at 30 days and 1 year (collected in TVT-R)
• All-cause mortality, all stroke, and repeat procedure for valve-related dysfunction (surgical or interventional therapy) at 2 – 10 years post implantation (collected through CMS claims and encounter data)

Secondary Endpoints
In-hospital coronary artery obstruction or compression, 30-day and 1-year echo measurements (including mean gradient, effective orifice area, and aortic regurgitation), and 30-day and 1-year NYHA classification scores collected in TVT-R will be summarized.
Follow-up Visits and Length of Follow-up 10 years
