What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting This study
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This observational study will follow 50 people with severe tricuspid regurgitation (a leaky heart valve) and reduced heart function who undergo valve repair using the PASCAL Precision System. The main goal is to see if, 12 months after repair, patients can take higher doses of standard heart failure medications compared to before the procedure. Researchers will also track hospitalizations and quality of life.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
PASCAL Precision System (device for tricuspid valve repair)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could show that repairing the tricuspid valve helps heart failure patients tolerate higher doses of guideline-directed medications, potentially improving outcomes.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early observational study (50 people) with no control group. It only measures medication changes, not direct health improvements, so results may not be conclusive.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Participants of age ≥ 18 years * ≥ severe tricuspid regurgitation * LVEF \< 50% * Written informed consent of the patient or her/his legal representative * Patient understands the purpose, the potential risks as well as benefits of the trial and is willing to participate in all parts of the follow-up * Planned follow-up within a dedicated heart failure clinic as part of routine care. Exclusion Criteria: * Anatomy unsuitable for TEER as determined by local heart team * severe mitral regurgitation (defined as an EROA\>40 mm2) treated (surgically or percutaneously) less than 3 months prior * severe left ventricular dysfunction (defined as an LVEF \<20%) * systolic pulmonary artery pressure \>70 mmHg (right heart catheterization) * prior tricuspid valve intervention * severe leaflet degeneration or tricuspid valve anatomy precluding successful device placement * primary tricuspid valve disease * COPD requiring home oxygen therapy * active endocarditis, or recent episode within 4 weeks of discontinuation of antibiotic therapy * participants with unstable hemodynamic condition * significant co-morbidities resulting in an expected less than 12-month life expectancy * The presence of other anatomic or comorbid conditions or other medical, social or psychological conditions that in the investigators' opinion could limit the subject's ability to participate in the clinical study and its follow-up. * Participants under judicial protection, guardianship or curatorship or if they are deprived of their liberty by judicial or administrative decision * Participation in another trial, which would lead to deviations in the preparation or performance of the intervention or the post-implantation management from this protocol
