About this trial

This clinical trial aims to evaluate the safety and demonstrate the efficacy of treatment to improve tricuspid regurgitation (TR) symptoms in patients with severe and clinically symptomatic TR through long-term implantation of an investigational medical device.

1. Determine the safety of long-term implantation of the investigational medical device "Pivot Extend" by monitoring for MACEs associated with the investigational medical device or procedure that may occur with long-term associated with the investigational medical device or procedure that may occur with long-term implantation. 2. Device success, procedural success, and clinical outcomes of long-term implantation of the investigational medical device "Pivot Extend" will be monitored.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Adults 18 years of age or older at the time of screening

Those with symptoms despite medical therapy (OMT, diuretics/medications) for TR for at least 1 month at screening

Those who meet the criteria of severe (3+) or worse on the TR grade classification table on echocardiography performed at the screening visit

Those with clinical symptoms of New York Heart Association (NYHA) class 2 or worse

Disqualifiers

Those with blood clots, emboli, masses, or growths in the vascular system of the heart or lungs on an echocardiogram and cardiac CT scan performed at the screening visit

Those with uncorrected blood clotting disorders based on hemanalysis performed at the screening visit

Those who are unable to use anticoagulant agents (NOAC ex.Xarelto)

Those who have had major bleeding (not including minor bleeding, such as a nosebleed that can be hemostasized) treated with anticoagulants prior to participation in this clinical trial

Treatments tested in this trial

  • Pivot Extend Tricuspid Regurgitation Spacer Device

    Device

    The Pivot Extend Tricuspid Regurgitation Spacer Device is an investigational implant designed to reduce tricuspid regurgitation (TR) by occupying the regurgitant orifice and improving leaflet coaptation. The device is implanted via a transcatheter procedure under imaging guidance. Following implantation, participants will undergo post-procedural monitoring for at least 24 hours to ensure safety and device stability. The device is intended for long-term placement, with scheduled follow-up assessments at designated intervals over a 12-month period to evaluate its safety and efficacy. Device removal may be performed if adverse events occur or if deemed necessary by the investigator.
