First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study is testing a newer version of a heart valve device, called the SAPIEN 3 Ultra, in 200 people with severe aortic stenosis (a narrowed heart valve). The valve is implanted through a tube in an artery, avoiding open-heart surgery. Researchers are checking how well the valve works and tracking safety issues like stroke or bleeding.

What this could lead to

If successful, this could confirm that the SAPIEN 3 Ultra valve is safe and effective for treating severe aortic stenosis without open-heart surgery.
