Company at a glance
JenaValve is a medical device company developing the first transcatheter heart valve technology that is uniquely designed for the minimally invasive treatment of aortic regurgitation (AR).
The JenaValve Trilogy Heart Valve System is the first and only device currently approved in the EU for the treatment of severe, symptomatic aortic regurgitation in patients that are deemed high-risk for surgical aortic valve replacement. The Trilogy System is also CE-Mark approved for treatment of severe, symptomatic aortic stenosis.
In the US, JenaValve has completed enrollment of the ALIGN-AR IDE Clinical Trial which will support a future PMA submission. If approved, the Trilogy System would become the first and only TAVR system in the US indicated for the treatment of symptomatic, severe AR.
JenaValve is headquartered in Irvine, California with offices in Leeds, U.K. and Munich, Germany.
