Pulsta® Transcatheter Pulmonary Valve Korean Multicenter Study

September 2, 2025 updated by: Taewoong Medical Co., Ltd.

A Prospective, Multicenter, Single Arm Study to Evaluate the Safety and Effectiveness of Implantation of 'Transcatheter Pulmonary Valve (TPV)' for the Treatment of Congenital Heart Disease With Pulmonary Valve Disease

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the TPV in patients with pulmonary valve dysfunction.

Conditions

Intervention / Treatment

Detailed Description

The TPV is indicated for use in patients with previous undergone replacement of bioprosthetic valve or conduit due to either pulmonary valve atresia, stenosis, regurgitation or a combination of them and present with dysfunctional right ventricular ourflow tract (RVOT) requiring treatment for severe pulmonary regurgitation and/or RVOT conduit obstruction. Consecutive subject data should be collected at discharge, 1, 3, 6 month, and 1-5 years post TPV implantation.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Hemodynamic functional improvement at 6month
Time Frame: 6 months
Hemodynamic functional improvement is defined as mean RVOT gradient ≤30 mmHg by continuous wave doppler, and a pulmonary regurgitant fraction <20% by cardiac magnetic resonance (MR).
6 months
Procedural / Device related serious adverse events at 6month
Time Frame: 6 months
6 months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Procedural success
Time Frame: 5 days
Procedural success is defined as the TPV implant within desired position, Right ventricle-Pulmonary artery (RV-PA) peak systolic pressure gradient <35mmHg by catheter, less mild pulmonary regurgitation by angiography, and freedom from explantation of the TPV at 24 hours post-implant.
5 days
Hemodynamic function
Time Frame: 5 years
Hemodynamic function will be measured including peak RVOT pressure gradient, mean RVOT pressure gradient, RV-PA pressure gradient, RV pressure, cardiac output, cardiac index, RV end-diastolic volume by echocardiography, cardiac MR, or catheterization.
5 years
Severity of pulmonary regurgitation
Time Frame: 5 years
5 years
New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional classification
Time Frame: 5 years
5 years
Stent fracture
Time Frame: 5 years
Stent fracture will be assessed by the investigator through radiography (X-ray, Fluoroscopy).
5 years
Catheter reintervention on TPV
Time Frame: 5 years
5 years
Reoperation
Time Frame: 5 years
5 years
Procedural / Device related serious adverse events
Time Frame: 5 years
5 years
Death (all cause / procedural / device-related)
Time Frame: 5 years
5 years
Other adverse events
Time Frame: 5 years
5 years
Pulmonary regurgitant fraction
Time Frame: 6 months
Pulmonary regurgitant fraction will be measured by cardiac MRI.
