BACKGROUND: The best management of symptomatic patients with low-gradient (LG) severe aortic stenosis (AS) and preserved left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) has not been established. The Randomised study for the Optimal Treatment of symptomatic patients with low-gradient severe Aortic valve Stenosis (ROTAS) trial aimed to assess the superiority of aortic valve replacement (AVR) versus medical treatment (MT) in this specific group of AS patients.
METHODS: Patients with symptomatic LG severe AS and preserved LVEF (>50%) underwent dobutamine stress echocardiography and/or CT-aortic calcium score to confirm AS severity and were then randomised 1:1 to AVR or MT. The primary endpoint was a composite of overall death and/or cardiovascular hospitalisation.
RESULTS: The ROTAS study was stopped early because of insufficient recruitment. In the end, only 52 patients (age 79±7 years; women 54%; NYHA III-IV 27%; median STS score 3.3%) were included in the study. During follow-up (mean: 14±7 months), the primary endpoint occurred in 12 (23%) patients. Compared with MT, AVR was not associated with a significant prognostic benefit (events: 5/26 (19%) vs 7/26 (27%) (HR 0.76, 95% CI 0.24 to 2.39, p=0.63). During follow-up, 11 (42%) patients in the MT group developed class I criteria for AVR or severe symptoms justifying a cross-over to the AVR group.
CONCLUSIONS: Because of the small number of included patients and short follow-up the ROTAS trial was underpowered and unable to demonstrate a difference in the study endpoint between treatment arms. In patients in the MT arm, a regular echocardiographic and clinical assessment might be useful to disclose those developing class I indications of AVR or severe AS-related symptoms.
