What is the Purpose of this Study?
This study focuses on adults who have tricuspid regurgitation (TR), a condition in which the heart's tricuspid valve does not close tightly, causing blood to flow backwards in the wrong direction. The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of an investigational device called the EVOQUE system with Optimal Medical Therapy (OMT) compared to OMT alone in the treatment of patients with severe or greater tricuspid regurgitation. The EVOQUE Valve is an artificial valve made from bovine pericardial (cow heart) tissue, nitinol (metal) frame, and a fabric skirt. The valve is designed to replace the tricuspid heart valve without open-heart surgery and is implanted using a delivery catheter.
Eligibility
- * Symptomatic tricuspid regurgitation (TR) despite medical therapy
- * TR graded as severe or greater
- * Appropriate for transcatheter tricuspid valve replacement per the local heart team
