APOLLO Trial Summary

This trial is testing a new medical device. Everyone enrolled in the trial will receive the device.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for patients with severe symptoms of mitral valve regurgitation, who are considered unsuitable for standard treatments by a heart team. Candidates should not have had previous transcatheter mitral procedures, significant heart valve calcification, very weak heart pumping function (ejection fraction <30%), or be in need of urgent surgery.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing the Medtronic Intrepid Transcatheter Mitral Valve Replacement System (TMVR) on all enrolled subjects. It's a global study that's prospective and non-randomized, meaning everyone gets the new device without being compared to another group.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects aren't listed here, TMVR procedures can generally include risks like bleeding, infection at the catheter insertion site, damage to the blood vessels or heart from the device, irregular heartbeats, stroke or kidney problems.
