EARTH-TAVR is a diagnostic multicenter study performing in association with the GALILEO trial (NCT02556203), which is investigating cerebral embolization with MRI and neurocognitive testing in patients undergoing TAVR, who are treated with anticoagulation (Rivaroxaban/ASS) or DAPT (Clopidogrel/ASS). GALILEO is a global multicenter, open-label, randomized, event-driven, active-controlled study comparing a rivaroxaban-based antithrombotic strategy to an antiplatelet-based strategy after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) to optimize clinical outcomes.
