About this trial

This is a multicentre, randomised, placebo-controlled trial conducted at St Bartholomew's Hospital, John Radcliff Hospital, Royal Brompton Hospital, and Kings College London Hospital. The aim is to evaluate the benefits in health status from transcatheter edge to edge repair with the TriClip device in patients with severe or more symptomatic tricuspid regurgitation. A total of 150 patients will be recruited in a 1:1 ratio for TriClip or placebo. The primary endpoint of this study (change in Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire between the treatment and placebo arm) will be analysed using a linear mixed model and compared between patients who receive the TriClip versus those who have a placebo procedure.

Study duration: 3 years
