Filter by:A significant reduction in the incidence of CV death or hospitalization for HF has been observed in randomized trials investigating the CV benefit of Dapagliflozin. Mechanistic investigations are required to interpret the positive clinical effects of Dapagliflozin on heart structure and valvular regurgitation.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the effect of dapagliflozin on reducing the degree of mitral regurgitation and myocardial fibrosis in patients with functional mitral regurgitation (FMR) of more than moderate and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) more than 40%. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - For FMR patients with EF>40%, whether adding SGLT2 to guideline directed medical therapy (GDMT) can reduce MR degree and myocardial fibrosis, as well as improve patient's cardio-pulmonary function and quality of life is unknown. - For FMR patients with EF>40%, whether adding SGLT2 to GDMT can decelerate the progression of FMR to end-stage heart failure, reduce the demand for percutaneous mitral valve repair and improve the prognosis is unknown. Participants in dapagliflozin arm will add dapagliflozin of 10 mg/d orally for 6 months on the basis of regular GDMT for FMR. Researchers will compare the dapagliflozin arm to the GDMT arm who only accept the regular GDMT to see if the effective regurgitant orifice area was decreased. The primary endpoint was the effective regurgitant orifice area(EROA) change from baseline to 6 months. The secondary endpoints include the cardiac magnetic resonance assessment of myocardial fibrosis, the N-terminal fragment of the pro brain natriuretic peptides(NT-pro BNP), maximal exercise capacity by cardiopulmonary exercise testing, distance in the 6 minutes walking test, Kansas City cardiomyopathy questionnaire and Cardiovascular events.
Observational study in adult humans undergoing surgical or cardiological intervention for mitral valve insufficiency. Investigators aim to evaluate hemodynamic changes on an arterial pressure waveform level in patients before and after mitral valve intervention using Nexfin (BMEYE, Amsterdam, the Netherlands) continuous non-invasive hemodynamic monitoring, using finger cuff based technology to register beat-to-beat data
Study to evaluate the safety and performance of the Innovalve mitral valve replacement system
Study to evaluate the safety and performance of the Innovalve mitral valve replacement system
This is a prospective Quality Improvement (QI) study using the Model for Improvement framework. The objective of this study is to implement a structured, comprehensive, innovative, and sustainable approach to the management of patients with advanced mitral valve (MV) disease and heart failure (HF) in Southeastern Ontario and to improve healthcare delivery, patient care, and patient outcomes in the context of structural surgical and percutaneous MV interventions. This will be achieved through the strategic implementation, promotion, and evaluation of: i.The first local Southeastern Ontario Structural Mitral Valve Clinic using an Interdisciplinary heart team (IHT) at the Kingston Health Sciences Centre (KHSC) and its integration with the KHSC's existing Heart Failure Clinic; ii.The first provincial Structural Mitral Valve Clinic electronic referral service on the Ontario electronic services platform; and iii.The promotion of the above through targeted KT (Knowledge Transfer) outreach activities. Patients for this study will be recruited through medical referral within the south eastern Ontario, Canada region.

In recent years increasing number of mitral bioprosthesis implantation, especially in elderly population, is observed. Bioprosthetic valves are associated with a lower risk of thrombotic and bleeding adverse events compared with mechanical prostheses, but their use is limited due to their durability. After years numerous patients may develop bioprosthesis failure, requiring valve reintervention. Significantly burdened ones are oftentimes disqualified or not referred to surgery redo. An emerging treatment method for these patients is transcatheter mitral valve-in-valve implantation as an alternative to re-operation. This technique is applied with the use of devices previously dedicated to transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). Recent papers prove that transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR) is a safe and effective procedure when performed in a selected group of high-surgical-risk patients. However, data regarding the Polish population are limited. Therefore, the aim of the study is to create a nationwide registry, collecting data from all Polish centers performing TMVR in order to describe the population of patients developing mitral bioprosthesis failure, evaluate their follow-up after TMVR as well as results of the transcatheter valvular intervention and identify potential limitations of the procedure.

Functional mitral regurgitation (FMR) leads to various adverse outcomes. Cardiac remodeling (CR) and myocardial fibrosis (MF) are closely related to FMR, forming a vicious circle of CR-FMR-MF and resulting in the end-stage heart failure (HF). The optimal therapeutic strategies of FMR require to effectively break the vicious circle of CR-FMR-MF and still remain full of controversy, especially in the appropriate selection of patients suitable for transcatheter treatment. Regardless, adequate guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT) is always the most important therapy of FMR. Currently GDMT for FMR included β-blockers, renin-angiotensin system (RAS) inhibitors and mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (MRA). Dapagliflozin, a sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitor, have been proven to be effectively in reducing cardiovascular death and worsening HF in HF patients. However, there is still no evidence support the use of SGLT2i in FMR therapy due to the lack of relevant clinical trial. The DEFORM trial aims to assess the efficacy of dapagliflozin in reducing the extent of mitral regurgitation and myocardial fibrosis in FMR patients. DEFORM trial is a multi-center, prospective, randomized, parallel controlled, investigator-initiated trial enrolling a planned 98 FMR patients. Patients will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to either dapagliflozin 10mg once daily for 3 months or placebo. The primary outcome is the change in effective regurgitant orifice area (EROA) of mitral regurgitation measured by echocardiography. Secondary end-points include change change in regurgitant volume (RV), left ventricular end-systolic volume (LVESV), left ventricular end-diastolic volume (LVEDV) (echocardiography), change in NT-proBNP levels and occurrence of major adverse cardiac events (MACEs).
