  • Ages 21 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Patients must meet ALL the following inclusion criteria :
  • with primary or secondary mitral regurgitation recorded by TTE and confirmed during TEE where surgery for mitral valve repair is required with indications consistent with AHA/ACC and ESC/EACTS guidelines :

  • Regurgitant fraction >50%
Show all 12Show fewer
  • Secondary (functional) : severe MR (EROA ≥30 mm²; R Vol > 30ml) may differ from the primary MR and are based on the prognostic value of these thresholds to predict the poor outcome, or for patients undergoing CABG

Who cannot join

  • Patients will be excluded if ANY of the following conditions are present:
  • of age < 21 years;
  • with echocardiographic measurements predicting SAM
  • LVEDD < 45 mm
  • C-Sd < 25mm (distance from the septum to the mitral valve coaptation point)

  • with active myocarditis;
  • with heavily calcified mitral annulus;
  • with mitral stenosis;
  • unable to take anticoagulation medications;
  • with a known untreatable allergy to contrast media or nickel;
  • with a major or progressive non-cardiac disease that, in the investigator's experience, results in a life expectancy shorter than 1 year, or for whom the implant of the device produces an unacceptable increase of risk;
  • with contraindication to transoesophageal echocardiography;
  • with contraindication to cardiopulmonary bypass;
  • who are pregnant or breast-feeding women;
  • involved in any other clinical investigation for drugs or devices;

About this study

Official title: OPtimisation of Surgical Repair for Treating Insufficiency of the MItral Valve - Safety and Effectiveness Evaluation (OPTIMISE II)

KALIOS is indicated for the surgical treatment of mitral regurgitation by mitral valve repair.It is intended for mitral valve repair using conventional open heart or minimally invasive techniques.

The KALIOS device is an adjustable annuloplasty ring, to be implanted by open surgery, having a hollow structure that comprises a flat rigid ring surrounding a deformable cage. The unique feature of KALIOS is that its annular shape and dimension can be finely adjusted percutaneously by an external actuator (three-balloon catheter) independently in the three areas corresponding to P1, P2 and P3

The primary objective of this clinical investigation is to assess the safety and effectiveness of KALIOS for the surgical treatment of Mitral Regurgitation with optional intra-operative and/or post-operative adjustment(s) The secondary objectives are to investigate the effects of KALIOS for the surgical treatment of Mitral Regurgitation on cardiac function and on patient functional status This clinical trial is prospective, non-randomized, single arm, multicentric \& international. Up to 100 patients are expected to be enrolled to obtain 62 evaluable patients at one year,presenting with primary (degenerative) or secondary (functional) mitral valve regurgitation and who are candidate to a mitral valve repair.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Kalios Implant in people with Mitral Valve Regurgitation, run by Kephalios at 9 sites in 4 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 12 inclusion and 22 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 26 Feb 2021. 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 Italy, Germany, Austria, Switzerland. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Michel Finance (+33 6 18 39 93 93, michel.finance@affluentmedical.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Assessment of the effectiveness of KALIOS for the surgical treatment of Mitral Regurgitation with optional intra-operative and/or post-operative adjustment(s) (time frame: At 1 year). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
