About this study

Official title: EValuation of Outcomes of Transcatheter Mitral Valve Repair for the Treatment of Low Ejection Fraction and Moderate Functional Mitral ValvE Regurgitation In Heart Failure

This study evaluates the addition of transcatheter mitral valve repair with the MitraClip device to medical treatment in patients with heart failure and moderate functional mitral regurgitation to determine the impact of left ventricular remodelling and patients' functional capacity.

Read the detailed description

Moderate mitral regurgitation in patients with LV dysfunction is associated with increased risk of death and hospitalizations for heart failure (HF) and leads to progressive remodelling of an already damaged left ventricle. Medical therapies and cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) have demonstrated favourable effects on LV remodelling in heart failure patients.

Given the benefits and safety of transcatheter mitral valve repair with the MitraClip device in severe MR, it is conceivable that this technology could also be safely used in those with moderate MR to reduce mitral regurgitation, improve symptoms and result in LV remodelling. At present, the optimal treatment strategy for heart failure patients and moderate (2+, 2-3+) mitral regurgitation is uncertain therefore the EVOLVE-MR study proposes to evaluate transcatheter mitral valve repair with the MitraClip in such patients to study the effects on LV remodelling and functional capacity.

EVOLVE-MR is a randomized study of MitraClip and medical therapy in symptomatic heart failure patients with moderate (2+, 2-3+) secondary mitral regurgitation. The objective of this study is to determine the impact of both therapies on left ventricular remodelling and functional capacity of the target patient population.

What is being measured

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

  1. Left ventricular diastolic remodelling

    Change in indexed left ventricular diastolic volume (LVEDV)

    Measured: 12 months

  2. Functional capacity as measured by 6 minute walk test

    Change in distance walked on six-minute walk test

    Measured: 12 months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Mitral regurgitation Severity (RV)

    Change in mitral regurgitant volume

    Measured: 12 months

  2. Mitral regurgitation Severity (EROA)

    Change in effective regurgitant orifice area

    Measured: 12 months

  3. Quality of Life Measurement

    Change in indices of quality of life as measured by Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire. The Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire is a 23-item, self-administered instrument that quantifies physical function, symptoms (frequency, severity and recent change), social function, self-efficacy and knowledge, and quality of life. In the KCCQ, an overall summary score can be derived from the physical function, symptom (frequency and severity), social function and quality of life domains. For each domain, the validity, reproducibility, responsiveness and interpretability have been independently established. Scores are transformed to a range of 0-100, in which higher scores reflect better health status.

    Measured: 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Transcatheter mitral valve repair and Guideline-directed medical therapy in people with Mitral Regurgitation and Heart Failure, run by Montreal Heart Institute at 1 site in Canada.

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 4 inclusion and 6 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Aug 2019. 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 Canada. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Anita W Asgar, MD (5143763330 ext. 3800, anita.asgar@umontreal.ca), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Left ventricular diastolic remodelling (time frame: 12 months). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 14 Aug 2019.
