Valvular Assessment of New Generation Aortic Replacement Devices
Condition(s) studied
Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)
Dafodil prosthesis: Surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) will be performed following standardized protocols to ensure consistency and optimize patient outcomes. Under general anesthesia, a median sternotomy will be conducted to access the aorta. Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) will be initiated, and the aorta will be cross-clamped to facilitate the safe removal of the existing prosthesis. After excising the deteriorated valve and removing any calcification, the new bioprosthetic valve will be implanted after randomized.

Study summary
The VANGUARD study is an open-label, prospective, randomized trial comparing the long-term outcomes of two advanced bioprosthetic aortic valves, Dafodil® and INSPIRIS Resilia®, in patients undergoing aortic valve replacement (AVR). This study aims to provide robust data on valve durability, safety, and hemodynamic performance, particularly in younger patients who may require multiple interventions over their lifetimes.
Eligibility
Primary outcome measure(s)
- Rate of bioprosthetic valve deterioration — 12 months
Participants will be randomized equally to receive either the Dafodil® or INSPIRIS Resilia® valve. The primary outcome is Bioprosthetic valve deterioration, using the standardized definitions and will be assessed using survival analysis.
