P3 Trial Summary

This trial is testing a new heart valve to see if it is safe and effective in patients with severe aortic stenosis who are at low risk for standard aortic valve replacement.

Who is the study for?
The PARTNER 3 Trial is for patients with severe, calcified aortic stenosis who are at low risk for standard valve replacement surgery. Participants must have symptoms or test results showing heart function issues and agree to the study's terms. Those with recent strokes, extreme obesity, short life expectancy, refusal of blood products, certain infections or diseases, unsuitable heart valve sizes or conditions that prevent safe procedure completion cannot join.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
This trial tests the safety and effectiveness of the SAPIEN 3 Transcatheter Heart Valve (THV) compared to standard surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR). It targets patients with severe aortic stenosis but considered low-risk for traditional surgery. The goal is to see if THV can be an alternative treatment option.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include risks associated with heart procedures such as bleeding, infection at the catheter insertion site, irregular heartbeats, stroke, kidney damage from contrast dye used in imaging during the procedure and possible need for pacemaker implantation.
