Trial summary

In the recent years, secondary tricuspid regurgitation (STR) has gained interest due to its high prevalence and impact on outcomes. Transcatheter tricuspid valve replacement or repair represents novel and less invasive alternatives to surgery and has shown early promising results. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Valutazione Del Rimodellamento Delle Camere Destre Dopo Trattamento Transcatetere Edge-to-edge Dell'Insufficienza Tricuspidale Severa

In the recent years, secondary tricuspid regurgitation (STR) has gained interest due to its high prevalence and impact on outcomes. Transcatheter tricuspid valve replacement or repair represents novel and less invasive alternatives to surgery and has shown early promising results. Treatment options mimic surgical techniques such as leaflet approximation, direct annuloplasty, and heterotopic caval valve implantation, as well as not yet commercially available transcatheter TV replacement systems using orthotopic valve implantation. (5) Among leaflet approximation techniques, the Tricuspid transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (T-TEER) using the TriClip™ (Abbott Vascular, Santa Clara, CA, USA) or leaflet approximation with the PASCAL systems (Edwards Lifesciences, Irvine, CA, USA) are approved in Europe for minimally invasive TV repair.The purposes of the present study are: i. to use 3DE and CCT to evaluate the effect of T-TEER on the geometry and function of the right heart chambers in patients with STR; ii. to identify the predictors of procedural success potentially related to features of both right chambers geometry and TR jet; iii. to compare the accuracy of 3DE assessment of the right ventricle, the right atrium, and the tricuspid annulus, with the same parameters obtained by CCT, in the setting of T-TEER; and iv. to assess patients' outcome.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Tricuspid Regurgitation, run by Istituto Auxologico Italiano at 1 site in Italy.

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 5 inclusion and 5 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 13 Mar 2024. 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 Italy. 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?

Contact Luca Grappiolo (+390261911 ext. 2894, luca.grappiolo@auxologico.it), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Inverse remodeling of right heart chambers (time frame: At baseline and at 6 months after intervention). 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 13 Mar 2024.
