Clinical Study of the Edwards Cardioband FIT Repair System
NCT07197736
Heart disease is the leading cause of death in the United States, and echocardiography (or "echo") is the most common way doctors look at the heart. Echo is safe, painless, and can detect major heart problems, including weak heart pumping and valve disease. Valve disease, especially aortic stenosis (narrowing) and mitral regurgitation (leakage), is common in older adults but often goes undiagnosed. While echo is the main tool for finding valve problems, it takes time, requires expert training, and results can vary between readers. Recent advances in artificial intelligence (AI), especially deep learning (DL), have shown promise in automatically analyzing heart images. However, past research hasn't fully tackled key echo techniques-like color Doppler and spectral Doppler-that are crucial for measuring how blood moves through heart valves. AI tools also face challenges in being used in everyday medical practice because of workflow issues, lack of real-world testing, and concerns about how the algorithms make decisions. At Columbia University Irving Medical Center, researchers have built a large database of heart tests over the last six years and developed AI programs to analyze echocardiograms. The current study will test whether providing AI analysis to cardiologists in real time during echo reading can make the process faster and more consistent.

Valvular heart disease (VHD), caused by abnormalities in heart valves, can lead to severe complications such as heart failure and death, with approximately 220 million affected patients worldwide. The prevalence of VHD continues to grow alongside the aging global population. Transcatheter heart valve interventions have emerged as minimally invasive alternatives, offering benefits like shorter recovery times and reduced discomfort. However, current manual catheter-based techniques are complex, highly dependent on clinicians' expertise, and involve significant physical risk due to prolonged exposure to X-ray radiation and cumbersome protective gear. To address these challenges, a novel, universal intracardiac robotic system is proposed to improve precision, safety, and procedural efficiency. This system integrates a high-dexterity, load-capacity catheter instrument, a modular concentric robotic platform, and an augmented reality (AR) navigation interface. The catheter's design balances flexibility for navigating complex intracardiac paths with the rigidity needed for device deployment. The robotic platform's modular architecture enhances versatility, enabling control across various procedures and anatomical variations, while the AR system facilitates intuitive preoperative planning and real-time intraoperative guidance through multimodal image fusion. The core innovation lies in overcoming existing limitations: balancing catheter flexibility and load capacity, expanding robotic system adaptability for different valve procedures, and improving integration with imaging modalities like computed tomography, transesophageal echocardiogram, and fluoroscopy. The project aims to develop sophisticated models for instrument design, control strategies for multi-instrument coordination, and advanced navigation tools. These technological advancements are intended to elevate the clinical utility of robotic intracardiac interventions, making them safer, more efficient, and easier to adopt widely. By establishing a systematic approach for intelligent, multimodal, robotic-assisted valvular procedures, this work promises significant contributions to minimally invasive cardiology and holds substantial potential for clinical translation.
NCT07464106
The hypothesis is that renal function will improve following tricuspid valve intervention. A reduction in renal biomarkers is also expected. Furthermore, based on previous assessments, it is anticipated that there will be an improvement in volume status (reduced edema), symptom burden, and physical capacity in patients. Additionally, the study will assess the impact of the intervention on functional parameters such as motor capacity, physical activity, performance of activities of daily living, and ultimately, participation and quality of life.
NCT07133386
This is a multicentre, randomised, placebo-controlled trial conducted at St Bartholomew's Hospital, John Radcliff Hospital, Royal Brompton Hospital, and Kings College London Hospital. The aim is to evaluate the benefits in health status from transcatheter edge to edge repair with the TriClip device in patients with severe or more symptomatic tricuspid regurgitation. A total of 150 patients will be recruited in a 1:1 ratio for TriClip or placebo. The primary endpoint of this study (change in Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire between the treatment and placebo arm) will be analysed using a linear mixed model and compared between patients who receive the TriClip versus those who have a placebo procedure. Study duration: 3 years
NCT07433504
The transcatheter tricuspid valve clipping system is specially designed for the treatment of tricuspid regurgitation. Under the guidance of ultrasound and DSA imaging, the investigational device is advanced into the right ventricle via a femoral or jugular venous puncture approach. The clipping component grasps the edges of the dysfunctional valve leaflets (usually unable to close properly), thereby reducing the area of the tricuspid orifice that fails to coapt normally, achieving minimally invasive treatment of tricuspid regurgitation.
NCT06954792
TTVR-AHI is a multicenter, retrospective registry including heart failure patients displaying a severe and symptomatic tricuspid regurgitation (TR), deemed non-eligible to cardiac surgery and therefore treated with transcatheter tricuspid valve replacement (TTVR) devices. This substudy of the main registry will focus on those with post-procedural acute hemodynamic instability (AHI).
NCT07349888
This study aims to investigate the efficacy and safety of combined mitral and tricuspid transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) versus isolated mitral TEER in the treatment of patients with mitral regurgitation (MR) combined with tricuspid regurgitation (TR). The expected objective is to provide a more precise treatment strategy for patients with MR combined with TR, reduce surgical risks, improve survival rates and quality of life, and offer evidence for clinical practice. The main research content involves enrolling 404 patients with severe MR combined with TR, who will be randomly assigned to either the group receiving simultaneous mitral and tricuspid TEER or the group receiving isolated mitral TEER. The primary endpoint is the composite endpoint at one year postoperatively, including death during the one-year follow-up, mitral and/or tricuspid surgery or intervention due to mitral and/or tricuspid dysfunction, rehospitalization for heart failure, and an increase of \<15 points in the KCCQ score.
NCT06027307
The Enavogliflozin Outcome Trial in Functional Tricuspid Regurgitation (EVENT) was designed to examine the hypothesis that, compared with placebo, therapy with the SGLT2 inhibitor enavogliflozin would improve clinical and echocardiographic outcomes in heart failure (HF) patients with functional tricuspid regurgitation (TR) and preserved left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF). The primary objective of the EVENT study is to test the hypothesis that, compared with placebo, therapy with enavogliflozin for 18 months would improve a composite of cardiovascular events or worsening of TR on follow-up echocardiography in HF patients with functional TR and preserved LVEF. The secondary objective is to examine whether enavogliflozin is effective in reduction of renal events and tricuspid regurgitation, and to evaluate whether beneficial effects of enavogliflozin on primary outcomes are associated with reduction of all-cause mortality.

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common cardiac arrhythmia in the clinic and can lead to valve regurgitation and a poor prognosis. At present, atrial fibrillation ablation is one of the most effective means for the recurrence of atrial fibrillation in clinical practice, but the recurrence rate is high. Therefore, it is of great significance to find the predictors of relapse after atrial fibrillation ablation for clinical precision treatment. three-dimensional transesophageal ultrasound (3D-TEE) can comprehensively evaluate the valve regurgitation, flap ring changes, atrial or auricular thrombosis in patients with atrial fibrillation. It is also a necessary examination before atrial fibrillation ablation. Therefore, this study intends to combine 3D-TEE and three-dimensional transthoracic echocardiographic (3D-TTE) examination to evaluate the cardiac structure and function of patients. To comprehensively evaluate atrial fibrillation valve regurgitation and explore the predictors of recurrence after atrial fibrillation ablation.

This is a prospective, single-arm, multi-center trial to evaluate the LuX-Valve Plus system for treating symptomatic at least severe TR in patients who are deemed high risk for tricuspid surgery. Treatment with the LuX-Valve Plus system may enable patients with tricuspid regurgitation to have a complete tricuspid valve replacement with a minimally invasive approach. Up to 150 subjects will be implanted at up to 24 institutions worldwide. No single institution will be allowed to register more than 25% of total subjects. There is no minimum number of subjects to be registered at any site. Up to3 per site, may be implanted by operators without prior experience using the LuX-Valve Plus device to gain hands-on experience.Each site has a maximum of 3 roll-in cases. The data of roll-in subjects will not count towards the overall enrollment cap. Safety and performance results of roll-in subjects will be analyzed in subgroups. All subjects will be evaluated at baseline, procedure, discharge, 30 days, 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, 3 years, 4 years, and 5 years post-procedure.
NCT06922526
Tricuspid regurgitation (TR) is a common complication following cardiac implantable electronic device (CIED) implantation, with severe TR being associated with increased rates of heart failure hospitalization and all-cause mortality, significantly impairing patients' quality of life. With technological advancements, physiological pacing modalities have demonstrated superior clinical efficacy and safety profiles compared to conventional pacing methods. This study aims to evaluate predictors of adverse outcomes and TR progression in CIED recipients under different pacing modalities, thereby providing clinical guidance for high-risk patients.
NCT06902922
Tricuspid regurgitation (TR) is gaining increasing attention within the cardiological community due to its poor prognosis, challenging clinical presentation and difficult treatment. TR causes decreased forward cardiac output and increased intravascular pressure upstream, which lead to peripheral oedema, ascites, hepatic congestion and kidney failure. The microbiota is also getting increasing attention and changes in microbiota have been already associated with cardiovascular disease. The impact of hemodynamic effects of TR on the gut microbiota however is still unknown. Patients affected by TR frequently complain abdominal distension and anorexia. We hypothesize that, due to increased venous congestion, TR may induce impaired gut function with modification in the microbiota and that TR correction may induce reverse changes. This study will enroll patients treated with Transcatheter Tricuspid Edge-to-Edge Repair (T-TEER) at the Valve Center of San Raffaele Hospital due to severe TR. In addition to the standard of care, before T-TEER, for all patients 2 additional blood samples, 1 urine and 1 fecal sample will be collected. 3 months after the procedure, all patients will be re-assessed at the Valve Center outpatient clinic as standard of care. At this stage for all patients 2 blood samples, 1 urine and 1 fecal sample will be collected again for the purpose of the study. The microbiota metabolites of patients after 3 months from the procedure will be compared to those at baseline according to the degrees of residual TR. To assess the reproducibility of the microbiota results and to explore an intrinsic short-term variation in microbiome composition within single patients, a subgroup of 30 patients will undergo a low intervention substudy repeating the measurements (2 blood, 1 urine and 1 fecal) within 10 days, both at baseline and at follow-up.

Tricuspid regurgitation (TR) is a public health problem: moderate / severe TR are common, especially in ageing populations, and affect 4% of the population \>75 years old, totaling approximately 1.6 million in the US and 3 million in Europe. TR is associated with an increased risk of mortality and morbidity. Contrasting with TR prevalence and the magnitude of the problem, the vast majority of patients are medically treated with diuretics to relieve their symptoms and a curative surgical treatment for isolated severe TR is seldom performed. Reluctance to perform an ITVS can be explained in the one hand by the limited evidence that TR correction improves outcomes and on the other hand, ITVS is associated to high observed in-hospital mortality rates (≈ 10% remarkably consistent in most series across the literature). Severity of the clinical presentation is the main predictor of outcome after surgery. The TRI-SCORE, is a dedicated, simple and accurate risk score model to predict in-hospital mortality after ITVS that could guide the clinical decision-making process at the individual level. Excellent outcomes can be achieved when patients present with low TRI-SCORE. These results suggest adopting a more pro-active approach for TV interventions, and to intervene earlier in the course of the disease in patients with severe isolated TR, irrespective of TR mechanism / etiology, before the occurrence of advanced / irreversible consequences such as severe RV dilatation / dysfunction, renal and liver failure, and intractable heart failure. Recently transcatheter tricuspid valve interventions (TTVI) have emerged recently as a less invasive option to surgery to cure patients with TR. What is the best treatment between medical, surgical or transcatheter therapy to consider and the best timing for each patient are not clearly defined. The aim of the study is to compare outcome of patients with significant functional TR according to medical, transcatheter or surgical treatment after matching per TRISCORE.
