Clinical Trial Summary

This research protocol tests a new technique and devices that we have developed to treat functional mitral valve regurgitation, called transcatheter mitral valve cerclage annuloplasty, otherwise known as "cerclage". Functional mitral valve regurgitation is a condition caused by damaged heart muscle involving the left ventricle which results in mitral valve leakage. This leakage causes heart failure (breathlessness and lack of energy especially when walking or exercising, and hospital admissions for fluid buildup). This is an early feasibility study (EFS) evaluation of special devices, permanently implanted in the heart, to perform mitral cerclage annuloplasty. Mitral cerclage annuloplasty is a catheter procedure performed under X-ray and ultrasound guidance without surgery. The cerclage devices compress the mitral valve like a purse-string. The cerclage device has a special feature that prevents a coronary artery from getting squeezed as part of this purse-string. The protocol has been changed to allow patients who have mitral valve regurgitation despite prior Mitra-Clip treatment, and to allow patients who have symptomatic heart failure with mild mitral regurgitation.


Clinical Trial Description

Functional mitral regurgitation (also known as secondary mitral regurgitation) is a common complication of left ventricular dysfunction. Ventricular dysfunction leads to dilation, which in turn leads to mitral annular dilation and leaflet traction. This causes a failure of coaptation of the otherwise intact leaflets of the mitral valve, leading to regurgitation through a central orifice between the mal-coapting leaflet tips. Functional mitral regurgitation contributes to heart failure symptoms. Transcatheter Mitral Cerclage Annuloplasty (TMCA) is a new catheter technique that reduces the septal-lateral dimension of the dilated annulus through circumferential compression, prevents extrinsic compression and entrapment of coronary arteries by incorporating a protection element, and exhibits planar discordance that achieves annular reduction even when the coronary sinus is anatomically located along the posterior left atrial wall. This is an entirely right-sided procedure and device. ;
