About this study

Official title: Trifecta™ GT (Glide Technology) Post Market Clinical Follow-up (PMCF)

The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and performance of the Trifecta™ GT (Glide Technology) valve through 5 year follow-up in a prospective, multi-center, real-world setting. This study is intended to satisfy post-market clinical follow-up requirements of CE Mark in Europe.

Read the detailed description

The study is a prospective multi-center evaluation of approximately 350 subjects implanted with a St. Jude Medical (SJM) Trifecta™ GT valve. It will be conducted in approximately 35 sites worldwide.

Subjects will be followed for 5 years. The total duration of the study is expected to be 6 years, assuming all subjects are enrolled within 1 year of study initiation. To ensure enrollment balance across sites, no individual site can enroll more than 10% of the sample size (n=35 subjects) without prior approval from the sponsor.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

What does the primary outcome measure?

Freedom From Surgical Valve Replacement or Transcatheter Valve-in-Valve Implantation (time frame: 5 years post implant). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
