Trial Outcomes & Findings for ALTERRA: SAPIEN 3 THV With the Alterra Adaptive Prestent (NCT NCT03130777)

NCT ID: NCT03130777

Last Updated: 2025-09-25

Results Overview

Number of patients with acute PDS success, defined as a non-hierarchical composite of: * Single THV implanted in the desired location * Right ventricle to pulmonary artery (RV-PA) peak-to-peak gradient \< 35 mmHg post-THV implantation * Less than moderate total pulmonary regurgitation by discharge TTE (or earliest evaluable TTE) * Free of SAPIEN 3 / Alterra explant at 24 hours post-implantation
