  2. Reduction of mitral regurgitation

    Reduction of mitral regurgitation to ≤1 at 30 days.

    Measured: 30 days

  3. Technical success

    Technical success defined as alive patient at exit from procedure room, with all of the following:

    • Successful access, delivery and retrieval of the delivery systems.
    • Development and correct positioning of the bioprosthesis.
    • Freedom of additional emergency surgery or re-intervention related to the device or access procedure.

    Measured: Day 0

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing SATURN TA System in people with Mitral Regurgitation and Valve Heart Disease, run by InnovHeart at 3 sites in 3 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 48 inclusion and 0 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 May 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in Denmark, Hungary, Lithuania. 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?

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?

Freedom from device-related or procedure-related major adverse events (time frame: 30 days). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 22 May 2024.
