What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • TriCinch Coil System implantationDevice

    Patients enrolled in this study with all eligibility criteria confirmed will be implanted with the TriCinch Coil System. This device offers a percutaneous treatment (access through the vein at the groin) to treat the leaking tricuspid valve, without the need for surgical intervention.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing TriCinch Coil System implantation in people with Tricuspid Regurgitation, run by 4Tech Cardio Ltd. at 13 sites in 7 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 9 inclusion and 30 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 31 Jul 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 13 sites in United Kingdom, Australia, Netherlands, Belgium, Denmark and 2 more countries. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

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.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early (reason given: As per sponsor). Results are not available in the source record.

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

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

All-cause mortality of the Per Protocol cohort at 30 days post procedure. (time frame: 30 days post procedure). 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.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 31 Jul 2020.
