Author Joerg Hausleiter, MD and Executive Associate Editor Aakriti Gupta, MD, FACC. discuss the TAVR UNLOAD trial, which focused on patients with moderate aortic stenosis (AS) and reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). The trial found no significant difference in the primary endpoint (composite of mortality, stroke, and hospitalizations) between the TAVR and clinical surveillance groups. However, patients who underwent TAVR showed a significant improvement in quality of life at one year. The conversation highlighted the need for individualized treatment approaches, emphasizing patient selection, while also considering trial limitations, including slow enrollment and study size.
