This is a prospective, multicenter trial with a primary endpoint of patient & graft survival at day 30 post-transplant and freedom from moderate or severe left or right ventricle primary graft dysfunction (PGD) within the initial 24 hours post-transplantation. This trial is designed to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the novel OCS Solution and OCS Functional Enhancer (OFE) to support FDA approval in both DBD and DCD heart transplantation. In addition, this trial will evaluate the performance of the novel OCS Solution and OFE compared to Static Cold Storage (SCS) in DBD heart transplantation to potentially demonstrate superiority.
