Brief Summary

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

Pivotal trial to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Edwards EVOQUE tricuspid valve replacement system

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The study is a prospective, multi-center, randomized controlled pivotal clinical trial to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the EVOQUE System with optimal medical therapy (OMT) compared to OMT alone in the treatment of patients with at least severe tricuspid regurgitation. Subjects will be followed at discharge, 30 days, 3 months, 6 months and annually through 5 years.

Transcatheter tricuspid valve replacement

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* Age ≥ 18 years old
* Despite medical therapy (OMT) per the local Heart Team, patient has signs of TR, symptoms from TR, or prior heart failure hospitalization from TR. Patient must be on OMT per the local heart team at the time of TR assessment for trial eligibility (TTE). OMT includes stable oral diuretic medications, unless patient has a documented history of intolerance.
* Functional and/or degenerative TR graded as at least severe on a transthoracic echocardiogram (assessed by the echo core lab using a 5-grade classification)
* The Local Heart Team determines that the patient is appropriate for transcatheter tricuspid valve replacement
* Patient is willing and able to comply with all study evaluations and provides written informed consent.

Exclusion Criteria

* Anatomy precluding proper device delivery, deployment and/or function
* LVEF \< 25%
* Evidence of severe right ventricular dysfunction
* Any of the following pulmonary pressure parameters:

1. PASP \>60 mmHg by echo Doppler (unless RHC demonstrates PASP ≤70 mmHg)
2. PASP \>70 mmHg by RHC
3. PVR \>5 Wood units by RHC (unless PVR ≤5 Wood units and systolic BP \>85 mmHg after vasodilator challenge)
* Previous tricuspid surgery or intervention

* Chronic anemia with transfusion dependency or Hgb \< 9 g/dL not corrected by transfusion
