Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Adults 18 years or older with symptomatic severe or greater tricuspid regurgitation who are eligible for transcatheter tricuspid valve replacement and meet study criteria.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with non-severe disease, contraindications to device therapy, or inability to comply with follow-up may not benefit.

What this trial studies
This is a prospective, multi-center randomized pivotal trial comparing the VDyne TriNova Transcatheter Tricuspid Valve Replacement system to the Edwards EVOQUE system in adults with symptomatic severe or greater tricuspid regurgitation. Participants will be followed from discharge through 30 days, 3 months, 6 months, and yearly for up to 5 years to assess safety and effectiveness. Eligibility includes NYHA class II–IV symptoms, prior adequate medical therapy, and a heart team deeming transcatheter replacement appropriate. Exclusion criteria include inability to comply with testing, participation in conflicting trials, and pregnancy or lactation. Lead sponsor is VDyne, Inc., with sites in Arizona and California.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, the trial could validate a new transcatheter option for treating severe tricuspid regurgitation, potentially reducing symptoms and improving quality of life.
How similar studies have gone: Prior trials in transcatheter tricuspid replacement have shown safety signals and potential efficacy, but this pivotal comparison against another device is relatively novel.
