About this study

Official title: Medical Versus Surgical Management of Patients With Moderate Mitral Regurgitation Following Percutaneous Coronary Intervention for Myocardial Infarction: A Pilot Prospective Randomized Trial

The pilot prospective randomized trial is designed to determine the safety and feasibility of enrolling patients to surgically correct residual Mitral Regurgitation (MR) following Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) for Myocardial Infarction (MI) verses ongoing medical management of MR. The investigators hypothesize that if moderate MR is corrected in this patient subset, the patients will have improved outcomes as measured by decreased number of major adverse cardiac events, including death, congestive heart failure requiring hospitalization, atrial fibrillation, deterioration of New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional status and improved quality of life.

Read the detailed description

Mitral regurgitation (MR) is a frequent complication of myocardial infarction. Ischemic MR portends a poor prognosis on long term follow up. This pilot prospective randomized trial is a safety and feasibility trial to evaluate mitral valve repair versus surgical management in patients with residual MR after primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Patients will be screened for possible inclusion to identify those that have first MI treated with primary PCI. Patients with moderate MR at 6 or more weeks following first primary PCI will be randomized to continued medical management versus surgical mitral valve repair. Patients with previous or subsequent coronary artery bypass surgery and patients with severe ventricular dysfunction will be excluded. Patients will be followed for one year from the time of randomization. The safety and feasibility data will be used to design a large trial powered to detect a difference in mortality between treatment arms.

Results of this study could lead to a radical change in the treatment paradigm for patients with ischemic MR following PCI for acute MI. In addition, insight gained from this study could advance our understanding of the interrelationship between LV remodeling and MR and shed some light into the mechanism of ventricular function deterioration following MI. Moreover, it may provide a framework for the development of further recommendations with respect to the indications for surgical intervention in this patient population.

  • surgical mitral valve repair w/ mitral valve annuloplastyProcedure or surgery

    Also called mitral valve annuloplasty

    Mitral valve repair will be performed via median sternotomy, utilizing cardiopulmonary bypass and moderate hypothermia. The mitral valve will be approached through a left atrial incision. Following inspection of the valve, mitral valve annuloplasty will be accomplished with a complete semi-rigid annuloplasty ring. Additional techniques to address residual regurgitation will be at the discretion of the surgeon. The left atriotomy will then be closed and the patient weaned off and separated from the cardiopulmonary bypass.

    Intraoperative transesophageal echocardiography will be performed on all study volunteers.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. patient survival

    Patient survival will be prospectively documented for all study subjects from recruitment through one year. A stopping rule for the surgical arm is a pre-specified cut-off of 5% based on the method proposed by Kramar and Bascoul-Mollevi in "Early Stopping Rules in Clinical Trials Based on Sequential Monitoring of Serious Adverse Events" [39]. A data and safety monitoring board (DSMB) that includes five independent investigators and a statistician has been established to conduct ongoing study review to maintain safety of all participants.

    Measured: baseline to 1 year

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. congestive heart failure requiring hospitalization

    Hospitalization for congestive heart failure will be prospectively documented for all study subjects from recruitment through one year.

    Measured: baseline and 1 year

  2. mitral regurgitation grade

    Transthoracic echocardiogram will be obtained to assess the presence and or severity of mitral regurgiation.

    Measured: baseline and 1 year

  3. new atrial fibrillation

    EKG will be obtained during routine clinical follow up visits and at one year.

    Measured: baseline, 3 months, 6 months and 1 year

  4. NYHA functional class

    This will be assessed via patient questionnaire using the standard NYHA classification.

    Measured: baseline, 3 months, 6 months and 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing surgical mitral valve repair w/ mitral valve annuloplasty in people with Myocardial Infarction and Mitral Regurgitation, run by Southern Illinois University at 1 site in United States.

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 3 inclusion and 4 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Jun 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. 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 combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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 was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

patient survival (time frame: baseline to 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 NCT01156441, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 16 Jun 2014.
