Comparing Myval THV with Contemporary Valves for Aortic Valve Stenosis
A Prospective, Multinational, Multicentre, Open-label, Randomised, Non-inferiority Trial to Compare Safety and Effectiveness of Meril's Myval Transcatheter Heart Valve (THV) Series vs. Contemporary Valves (Edwards's Sapien THV Series and Medtronic's Evolut THV Series) in Patients With Severe Symptomatic Native Aortic Valve Stenosis
This study is testing if a new heart valve called Myval works better and is safer than current heart valves for people with severe aortic valve narrowing.

What this trial studies
The LANDMARK Trial is a randomized controlled trial designed to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Myval THV Series compared to contemporary valves, specifically the Sapien and Evolut THV Series, in patients suffering from severe symptomatic native aortic valve stenosis. This multicentric, open-label trial will enroll a total of 768 subjects, with participants randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to receive either the Myval THV or one of the contemporary valves. The study aims to assess outcomes through a transfemoral approach and includes a nested registry for patients requiring extra-large valve sizes. The trial will also involve a lead-in set for initial cases to ensure proper implantation techniques.
Who should consider this trial
Good fit: Ideal candidates for this study are adults aged 18 and older who are eligible for transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) and can provide informed consent.
Not a fit: Patients who are not suitable for TAVI or those unwilling to participate in the study will not benefit from this trial.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this trial could provide a new effective treatment option for patients with severe aortic valve stenosis.
How similar studies have performed: Previous studies comparing similar transcatheter heart valves have shown promising results, indicating that this approach is supported by existing evidence.

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Patient ≥18 years of age. 2. Patient or their legal representative has provided written informed consent as approved by the Institutional Review Board (IRB)/Institutional Ethics Committee (IEC) of the investigational site to participate in the study. 3. As per local Heart Team assessment, patient is eligible for TAVI and the patient is suitable for implantation with all three study devices. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Patients who are not willing to provide informed consent form, or whose legal heirs object to their participation in the study. 2. Any condition, which in the Investigator's opinion, would preclude safe participation of patient in the study.
