About this study

Official title: Randomized Evaluation of Mitral Annuloplasty During Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting for Moderate Functional Ischaemic Mitral Regurgitation.

The study is a randomised controlled trial comparing two treatment strategies for patients with moderate functional ischaemic mitral regurgitation undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). Patients will be randomised to receive either CABG alone or CABG plus mitral annuloplasty. The objective of the study is to determine if mitral annuloplasty in addition to CABG improves outcome in patients with moderate functional ischaemic mitral regurgitation.

Read the detailed description

70 patients with moderate functional ischaemic MR who are undergoing CABG will be recruited. Patients will be randomised to undergo either CABG alone or CABG combined with mitral annuloplasty. Patients will be investigated at baseline, 3 months and 1 year after surgery to determine functional capacity, quality of life, and cardiac function.

Being tested
CABG + Mitral valve annuloplasty, CABG
Keywords
Functional ischaemic mitral regurgitation
Medical subject headings

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • CABG + Mitral valve annuloplastyProcedure or surgery

    Patients will receive a mitral annuloplasty ring in addition to coronary artery bypass grafting.

  • CABGProcedure or surgery

    Patients will undergo coronary artery bypass grafting alone.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Early Phase 1 study testing CABG + Mitral valve annuloplasty and CABG in people with Mitral Regurgitation and Coronary Artery Disease, run by Imperial College London at 9 sites in 2 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 9 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Mar 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 9 sites in United Kingdom, Poland. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Early Phase 1 (sometimes called Phase 0) studies give a very small amount of a treatment to a few people, mainly to see how the body handles it.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Functional capacity (time frame: 1 year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00413998, which also lists 3 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 28 Mar 2023.
