About this study
Official title: Management And Clinical Outcomes Of Patients With Severe Mitral Disease Not Suitable For Surgery: A Prospective, Multicentric, Observational Study
The objective of this study is to collect in a prospective registry all cases of French patients undergoing an assessment for percutaneous treatment of mitral valve disease on a native valve or due to deterioration after surgical valve repair or replacement. In these patients, valvular surgery should be considered contra-indicated or at prohibitive risk. This registry will evaluate the morbidity and mortality up to 24 months for those patients with severe mitral valve disease who are not included in a clinical trial. The association of demographic, clinical, laboratory, echocardiographic variables and treatment options with morbidity and mortality will be evaluated by univariate and multivariate analyses.
Read the detailed description
Patients with symptomatic severe mitral valve disease will have a medical evaluation visit (physical examination, ECG, biology) with transthoracic ± transesophageal echocardiography in each center. If the patient is considered not eligible for surgery by the heart-team and is not included in a clinical trial, the investigator informs the patient of the existence of the registry and verifies that it does not express opposition to the use of its clinical data.
In each participating center, demographic information, clinical, laboratory, echocardiographic and treatment options will be collected and reported in an electronic case report form (e-CRF). Each center will be responsible of patient monitoring, including phone call at 6 months and a medical visit at 1 and 2 years. Transthoracic echocardiography will also be performed at 1 year and 2 years.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| SEVERE MITRAL VALVE DISEASE | All patients with symptomatic severe mitral valve disease on a native valve or due to deterioration after surgical valve repair or replacement, and not eligible for surgery according to the heart-team. |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
All cause death and heart failure at 24 months
Death from any cause or unscheduled hospitalization for heart failure at 24 months
Measured: 24 months of follow-up
Secondary outcomes (5)
Overall survival at 24 months
The survival rate will be determined between the date of inclusion in the cohort and the date of occurrence of death, whatever the cause.
Measured: 24 months of follow-up
Survival without major cardiovascular event
The rate of survival without major cardiovascular event rate will be determined between the date of inclusion and date of occurrence of a major cardiovascular event (unscheduled rehospitalisation for heart failure, stroke, death of cardiovascular, myocardial infarction).
Measured: 24 months of follow-up
Rate of unscheduled hospitalizations for heart failure
Rate of unscheduled hospitalizations for heart failure at 24 months.
Measured: 24 months of follow-up
Functional evaluation
It will be defined by changes in NYHA functional class at 24 months.
Measured: 24 months of follow-up
Early safety
Defined as absence of all-cause mortality, all stroke, severe bleeding, acute kidney injury stage 2 or 3, major vascular complication, and valve related dysfunction requiring repeat interventional transcatheter procedure or surgery.
Measured: Until Hospital Discharge, up to 6 months

Clinical summary
The research question as the sponsor registered it. This describes what the study plans to test, not what it found.
The objective of this study is to collect in a prospective registry all cases of French patients undergoing an assessment for percutaneous treatment of mitral valve disease on a native valve or due to deterioration after surgical valve repair or replacement. In these patients, valvular surgery should be considered contra-indicated or at prohibitive risk. This registry will evaluate the morbidity and mortality up to 24 months for those patients with severe mitral valve disease who are not included in a clinical trial. The association of demographic, clinical, laboratory, echocardiographic variables and treatment options with morbidity and mortality will be evaluated by univariate and multivariate analyses.
Detailed description
Patients with symptomatic severe mitral valve disease will have a medical evaluation visit (physical examination, ECG, biology) with transthoracic ± transesophageal echocardiography in each center. If the patient is considered not eligible for surgery by the heart-team and is not included in a clinical trial, the investigator informs the patient of the existence of the registry and verifies that it does not express opposition to the use of its clinical data.
In each participating center, demographic information, clinical, laboratory, echocardiographic and treatment options will be collected and reported in an electronic case report form (e-CRF).

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
An observational study of Mitral Valve Disease, run by French Cardiology Society at 3 sites in France.
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 0 inclusion and 5 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Jun 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 3 sites in France. 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.
Are results available for this study?
This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
Contact Jean-François OBADIA (+331 43 22 33 33, secretariat.registre@sfcardio.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
All cause death and heart failure at 24 months (time frame: 24 months of follow-up). 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 NCT02925819, which also lists 10 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 12 Jun 2026.
