Brief summary
A prospective, single-arm, multi-center first-in-human (FIH) study to evaluate the safety and performance of the Innoventric Trillium™ Stent Graft System. Twenty (20) patients in 8 investigational sites will be enrolled. All enrolled study patients will be assessed at baseline, during the procedure, at discharge, after 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, 1.5 years, 2 years, and 3 years following the index procedure.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Safety Endpoint | Evaluated immediately after intervention, discharge and 30 days | Rate of device or procedure-related MAEs and Freedom from unplanned surgery or re-intervention, due to life-threatening device or procedure failure |
| Technical performance | Evaluated immediately after intervention | Successful access, delivery, and retrieval of the Trillium delivery system, the device is anchored both in SVC and IVC. |
| Efficacy Endpoint | Evaluated immediately after intervention | TR grade as measured on the device valves (Echocardiography), or by hepatic vein systolic backflow (Echocardiography), or reduction in peak central venous pressure (Invasive hemodynamic measurement). |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Safety Endpoint | Assessment at 3-month, 6-month and 1-year | Composite of all device or procedure-related MAEs. |
| Efficacy Endpoint | Assessment at 30 days, 3-month, 6-month and 1-year | One or more of the following- * TR grade measured on the device valves (Echocardiography), or by hepatic vein systolic backflow (Echocardiography), or measured by a regurgitant fraction (CMR) \[at 30 days, 3-month, 6-month, and 1-year\] * Rate of hospitalizations for HF \[at 30 days, 3-month, 6-month, and 1-year\] Or one or more of the following- * Clinical Frailty Scale (CFS) \[at 30 days, 3-month, 6-month, and 1-year\] * HF functional class (NYHA) \[at 30 days, 3-month, 6-month, and 1-year\] * Six-minute walk test (6MWT) \[at 30 days, 3-month, 6-month, and 1-year\] * The Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire (KCCQ) \[at 30 days, 3-month, 6-month, and 1-year\] |
Other
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Other Endpoints | Assessment at 30 days, 3-month, 6-month and 1-year | transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) will be performed to determine acceptable performance of the device defined as a reduction in hepatic vein systolic backflow to moderate (systolic blunting) or better. In addition, the tricuspid valve complex will be imaged to capture the following parameters for comparison to baseline: Page 46 of 118 -Confidential- 1. TR grade (qualitative) 2. Jet area 3. EROA and regurgitant volume 4. RV and LV dimensions 5. RA area/volume 6. LVEF 7. Tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE) 8. IVC dimensions/respiratory variations 9. Pulmonary artery pressure (PAP) 10. Right atrial pressure (RAP) 11. RV pressure 12. IVC/SVC pressure It should be noted that the above-mentioned parameters are primarily being captured for research purposes and may not be affected by the device. The following clinical and laboratory parameters will be captured for comparison to baseline values: 1. Mini Nutrition Assessment (MNA)® 2. Clinical Frailty Scale© |
