Early outcomes of the novel Myval THV series compared to SAPIEN THV series and Evolut THV series in individuals with severe aortic stenosis
Bibliographic record
Abstract
BACKGROUND: There are limited head-to-head randomised trials comparing the performance of different transcatheter heart valves (THVs). AIMS: We aimed to evaluate the non-inferiority of the balloon-expandable Myval THV series compared to the balloon-expandable SAPIEN THV series or the self-expanding Evolut THV series. METHODS: The LANDMARK trial randomised 768 patients in a 1:1 ratio, (Myval THV series [n=384] vs contemporary series with 50% SAPIEN THV series [n=192] and 50% Evolut THV series [n=192]). The non-inferiority of Myval over the SAPIEN or Evolut THV series in terms of the 30-day primary composite safety and effectiveness endpoint as per the third Valve Academic Research Consortium (VARC-3) was tested in an intention-to-treat population with a predefined statistical power of 80% (1-sided alpha of 5%) for a non-inferiority margin of 10.44%. RESULTS: The Myval THV series achieved non-inferiority for the primary composite endpoint over the SAPIEN THV series (24.7% vs 24.1%, risk difference [95% confidence interval {CI}]: 0.6% [not applicable {NA} to 8.0]; p=0.0033) and the Evolut THV series (24.7% vs 30.0%, risk difference [95% CI]: -5.3% [NA to 2.5]; p<0.0001). The incidences of pacemaker implantation were comparable (Myval THV series: 15.0%, SAPIEN THV series: 17.3%, Evolut THV series: 16.8%). At 30 days, the mean pressure gradient and effective orifice area were significantly better with the Myval THV series compared to the SAPIEN THV series (p<0.0001) and better with the Evolut THV series than with the Myval THV series (p<0.0001). At 30 days, the proportion of moderate to severe prosthetic valve regurgitation was numerically higher with the Evolut THV series compared to the Myval THV series (7.4% vs 3.4%; p=0.06), while not significantly different between the Myval THV series and the SAPIEN THV series (3.4% vs 1.6%; p=0.32). CONCLUSIONS: The Myval THV series is non-inferior to the SAPIEN THV series and the Evolut THV series in terms of the primary composite endpoint at 30 days. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION: ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT04275726; EudraCT number 2020-000,137-40.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
