New heart valve aims for better Long-Term results
NCT ID NCT06420830
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study is tracking 150 people who receive a new type of heart valve (SAPIEN 3 Ultra RESILIA) to see how well it works over time. The valve has special features to prevent calcium buildup and improve durability. Researchers will use echocardiograms to measure valve function and check for leaks or other problems.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- SAPIEN 3 Ultra RESILIA valve (a replacement heart valve)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could show that the new valve lasts longer and works better than older versions, improving long-term outcomes for people with severe aortic stenosis.
- What could go wrong
- This is an observational registry, not a randomized trial, so results may not prove the valve is better. Valve durability can only be assessed over many years, and this study may not be long enough to see clear differences.

Inclusion Criteria: * Inclusion criteria - Patients with severe aortic stenosis undergoing transarterial TAVR with the SAPIEN 3 Ultra RESILIA valve. * Successful valve implantation of the SAPIEN 3 Ultra RESILIA valve. VARC-3- defined technical success defined as: * Freedom from mortality * Successful access, delivery of the device, and retrieval of the delivery system * Correct positioning of a single prosthetic heart valve into the proper anatomical location * Freedom from surgery or intervention related to the device (excluding permanent pacemaker) or to a major vascular or access related, or cardiac structural complication - Absence of severe procedural or in-hospital complications (VARC-3 definitions): mortality, stroke, bleeding type 2-4, myocardial infarction, need for a second valve, valve embolization, coronary obstruction, annular rupture. Exclusion Criteria: * Age \>80 years * Severe pulmonary disease (FEV1 \<50% predicted or need for home oxygen) * Severe renal dysfunction (eGFR \<30 ml/min/1.73m2) * Frailty (Clinical Frailty Scale \> 4) * Severe coronary disease (SYNTAX score \>32) * Left ventricular ejection fraction ≤30% * Moderate-to-severe mitral regurgitation * Severe tricuspid regurgitation * Pulmonary systolic pressure \>60 mmHg * STS-PROM \>5% * Any disease leading to a life expectancy \<5 years
