Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The study purpose is to evaluate the safety and feasibility of the CORolla™ TAA in two treatment groups, "CORolla™ Stand-alone group" and " AVR \& CORolla™ Add on group".

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

CORolla™ TAA Stand Alone

Single arm study design including with patients with isolated HFpEF, in NYHA f. Cl. III-IV. These patients will receive the CORolla™ TAA device. For assessments of results, intra-patient comparisons of pre-procedure and follow-up data will be performed;

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

CORolla™ TAA device

Intervention Type DEVICE

AVR and CORolla™ TAA Add On group

patients who require aortic valve replacement (AVR) due to aortic stenosis and have diastolic dysfunction will receive the CORolla™ TAA device.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

CORolla™ TAA device

Intervention Type DEVICE

AVR and CORolla ADD On - Control

patients who require only the aortic valve replacement (AVR) due to aortic stenosis and have diastolic dysfunction.

Exclusion Criteria

* Cardiovascular disease

* Uncontrolled HTN defined as \> 140/90 mmHg, or \>160/90 mmHg for patients on 3-drug therapy
* Current or anticipated need for ICD, currently implanted with a cardiac resynchronization device (CRT), left ventricular assist device (LVAD).
* Within the past 3 months - Acute myocardial infarction (AMI), cerebral vascular accident (CVA), Transient Ischemic Attack (TIA) , Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI or transmyocardial laser revascularization (TMR or PMR)
* Valvular disease (unless add - on to aortic valve replacement due to aortic stenosis)
* Hypertrophic cardiomiopathy
* Pericardial disease
* Cor pulmonale or other cause of isolated right heart failure.
* Non reversible pulmonary hypertension.
* Right ventricle failure or right ventricular myocardial infarction.
* Infiltrative heart disease
* Non-cardiovascular disease

* Non-cardiovascular condition limiting ability to assess the 6-minute hall walk test
* Prior surgery, radiation, or thoracic surgery limiting the ability to place the device
* Body mass index of greater than 40
* Uncontrolled hyperglycemic status as addressed by HbA1c \>8.5%
* Asthma COPD (e.g. FEV1 \<1.5 liter), or severe restrictive lung disease

* Previous Trans Apical procedures/implantation
* Miscellaneous conditions

* Unwilling to fulfill the protocol medication compliance, testing, and follow-up requirements
* Co-morbid condition that in the physician's opinion would prohibit the subject's ability to meet the protocol requirements
* Pregnancy at the time of enrollment. (Women of child bearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test within two weeks prior to enrollment, or be using hormonal contraceptives or intrauterine devices)
* Enrolled in another investigational study
* A history of alcohol abuse, drug addiction, or other psychosocial condition that would preclude successful participation, or clear judgment and informed consent in the opinion of the Principal Investigator
