About this study

Multicentre observational study of patients with severe tricuspid regurgitation and interventional treatment.

Read the detailed description

Severe tricuspid regurgitation occurs in around 1.5 % of men and 5.6 % of women and it is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Current guidelines recommend cardiac surgery, especially in those patients who are undergoing left side valve surgery. Nevertheless many patients are not eligible for surgical tricuspid valve repair due to an high risk of mortality. Therefore interventional devices for treatment of tricuspid regurgitation have been established to offer these patients an alternative treatment option. The aim of this study is to analyse the success and saftey aspects of different interventional repair techniques for severe tricuspid regurgitation. Therefore in this prospectively designed observational study clinical, echocardiographic and laboratory parameters will be collected.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. All-cause death and heart failure hospitalisation

    All-cause death and heart failure hospitalisation 1 year after transcatheter tricuspid valve treatment (TTVT)

    Measured: 1 year

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. All-cause death and heart failure hospitalisation (long-term)

    Long-term all-cause death and heart failure hospitalisation after transcatheter tricuspid valve treatment (TTVT)

    Measured: up to 5 years

  2. All-cause death and heart failure hospitalisation (short-term)

    Short-term all-cause death and heart failure hospitalisation after transcatheter tricuspid valve treatment (TTVT)

    Measured: 30-90 days

  3. Change of tricuspid regurgitation after transcatheter tricuspid valve treatment (TTVT)

    Assessed by echocardiography, tricuspid regurgitation graded on a 4-grade scale.

    Measured: up to 5 years

  4. Change of cardiopulmonal symptoms after transcatheter tricuspid valve treatment (TTVT)

    Assessment for cardiopulmonal symptoms include edema scaling

    Measured: up to 5 years

  5. Change of NYHA classification after transcatheter tricuspid valve treatment (TTVT)

    NYHA classification I, II, III or IV

    Measured: up to 5 years

  6. Change of 6-minute walking distance test after transcatheter tricuspid valve treatment (TTVT)

    Assessed by standardized protocol testing 6-minute walking distance

    Measured: up to 5 years

  7. Change of quality of life after transcatheter tricuspid valve treatment (TTVT)

    Quality of life is assessed by standardized questionnaires including the Minnesota Living with Heart Failure Questionnaire

    Measured: up to 5 years

  8. Change of NT-proBNP after transcatheter tricuspid valve treatment (TTVT)

    N-terminal pro Brain Natriuretic Peptide (NT-proBNP) in pg/ml

    Measured: up to 5 years

  9. Procedural success after transcatheter tricuspid valve treatment (TTVT)

    Procedural success is defined as a reduction of the tricuspid regurgitation to at least grade 2+ achieved by interventional treatment

    Measured: At the day of discharge after transcatheter tricuspid valve treatment (TTVT)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Tricuspid Regurgitation and Tricuspid Valve Insufficiency, run by LMU Klinikum at 1 site in Germany.

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 2 inclusion and 2 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 Dec 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Germany. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Jörg Hausleiter, MD (+49 89 4400 72361, joerg.hausleiter@med.uni-muenchen.de), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

All-cause death and heart failure hospitalisation (time frame: 1 year). 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 4 Dec 2020.
