Study Summary

This trialgathers info on treatment for severe aortic regurgitation, a heart valve condition. Symptoms incl. fatigue & shortness of breath. Surgery is the preferred treatment.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for patients with severe aortic regurgitation, who are at high risk for traditional open-heart valve replacement surgery. They should have symptoms that affect their daily activities (NYHA class II or higher). Participants must understand the study and agree to its terms with written consent. Those with abnormal aortic valve morphology, previous valve replacements, active infections, urgent heart conditions, or severe mitral regurgitation cannot join.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The ALIGN-AR EFS TRIAL is evaluating the JenaValve Pericardial TAVR System as a treatment option for severe Aortic Regurgitation. This condition causes blood to leak back into the heart chamber due to an improperly closing valve. The trial aims to gather data on this less invasive alternative to open-heart surgery.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects of the JenaValve system aren't listed here, similar procedures may include risks like bleeding, blood vessel complications, irregular heartbeats, stroke, infection at the catheter site and potential need for permanent pacemaker.
