Active clinical trials for "Mitral Valve Insufficiency"

Study to evaluate the safety and performance of the Innovalve mitral valve replacement system

The aim of the present study is to investigate safety and efficacy of early versus deferred aortic valve replacement in patients with moderate aortic stenosis combined with moderate mitral regurgitation.

The investigators are interested in determining the best surgical technique to correct functional mitral regurgitation, as there is currently not one technique that is established to work better than the other. The technique used in current clinical practice is undersizing mitral annuloplasty (UMA), in which a prosthetic ring is implanted onto the mitral valve to correct the leakage. Though widely adopted, durability of the repair is less, as 58% of the patients present with recurrent FMR within 2 years. There are no specific algorithms to predict who might have UMA failure, but research indicates that some geometric indices might be strong predictors. The investigators are interested in testing the hypothesis that, elevated lateral inter-papillary muscle separation (IPMS) is a predictor of post-UMA recurrence of FMR at 12 months. In the first part of this study, the study team will measure lateral IPMS before surgery, and relate to post-surgery FMR severity at discharge/30 days, 6 months and 12 months. A relatively newer technique is papillary muscle approximation (PMA), in which a suture draws together the two muscles that connect the mitral valve to the heart muscle prior to performing UMA. This reduces the lateral inter-papillary muscle separation (IPMS) and is expected to improve the durability of UMA. In the second part of this study, the investigators will perform PMA and UMA together and determine if FMR severity is reduced at discharge/30 days, 6 months and 12 months.

The objective of the study is to demonstrate the non-inferiority for clinical efficacy of an endovascular treatment strategy with the MitraClip® in comparison with a surgical treatment strategy in patients with severe primary mitral regurgitation judged eligible for anatomical repair with the MitraClip® or mitral valve surgery with high surgical risk. This trial is a French and Monegasque, multicenter and randomized trial. Patients enrolled will be clinically followed for 2 years ( clinical visit at 1 month, at 6 months and 12 months, phone call at 18 months and clincial visit at 24 months).

This is a prospective, multi-center, single-arm study to evaluate safety and efficacy of the VenTouch System for treatment of subjects with functional MR.

Study to evaluate the feasibility, safety and performance of the HighLife trans-septal Transcatheter Mitral Valve in patients with moderate-severe and severe mitral regurgitation who are at high risk for surgical treatment.

Prospective, single-arm, multicenter study to evaluate the safety and performance of the AltaValve for the treatment of moderate to severe or severe mitral valve regurgitation in subjects who are considered high risk for mortality and morbidity from conventional open-heart surgery.

To evaluate the safety and performance of the Mi-thos® Mitral Heart Valve with the Mi-thos® Transcatheter Delivery System.

Feasibility, safety and performance of the HighLife CLARITY TSMV and its delivery system

The purpose of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of the transcatheter mitral valve repair system in the treatment of patients with moderate or above degenerative mitral regurgitation.
