Transcatheter Mitral Valve Replacement in Patients With Severe Symptomatic Mitral Regurgitation - APOLLO-EU Trial (APOLLO-EU)

December 12, 2025 updated by: Medtronic Cardiovascular

Transcatheter Mitral Valve Replacement With the Medtronic Intrepid™ TMVR Transfemoral System in Patients With Severe Symptomatic Mitral Regurgitation - APOLLO-EU Trial

Evaluate the safety and efficacy of Medtronic Intrepid™ TMVR TF System in patients with moderate-to-severe or severe symptomatic mitral regurgitation, or moderate symptomatic mitral regurgitation combined with mitral stenosis in the presence of MAC who, by agreement of the local site multidisciplinary heart team experienced in mitral valve therapies, are unsuitable for treatment with approved transcatheter repair or surgical mitral valve intervention.
