About this study

Official title: A Prospective, Multicenter, Single Group Assignment Study for Evaluating the Safety and Effectiveness of MitralStitch Mitral Valve Repair System in Patients With Moderate to Severe and Severe Mitral Regurgitation.

The main objective is to assess the effectiveness and safety of the MitralStitch repair system in patients with moderate to severe and severe mitral regurgitation.

Read the detailed description

The clinical trial was designed as a prospective, multicenter, single group assignment study. The participants with moderate to severe and severe mitral valve regurgitation will receive a transapical beating-heart mitral valve repair surgery using MitralStitch mitral valve repair system after signed the informed consent. The follow-up will be conducted after 30 days, 3 months, 6 months and 12 months of the operation.

The following conditions evaluate the performance of the system and the safety and efficiency of using MitralStitch mitral valve repair system in treating patients with severe mitral regurgitation.

The none occurrence of these conditions will be approved as the main validity index: death, mitral valve related surgery without mitral valve failure and moderate or severe mitral regurgitation (MR > 2+). The secondary validity index was technical success rate, instrument success rate, surgical success rate, cardiac function improvement and quality of life improvement. And the safety evaluation indicators were assessed by the incidence of major adverse events, adverse events, serious adverse events, and device defects.

What is being measured

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

  1. The success rate

    Combined incidence of freedom from: death, surgery for Valve Dysfunction, and MR > 2+ (moderate to severe (3+) or severe (4+) mitral regurgitation) at 12 months

    Measured: 1 year

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. The instant procedural success

    Technical success is defined as the absence of death, the successful implantation of the device and complete retraction of the delivery system without any need for emergency surgery or secondary intervention (including device related and surgical approach related

    Measured: Immediately after repair

  2. The success of the repair system

    The success rate of the device is defined as the successful delivery and implantation of the device, and the successful withdrawal of the implanted parts after the completion of the release, without any technical failure or complications related to the device.

    Measured: 12 months

  3. The success of the surgery

    Surgical success was defined as the success of the instrument, MR 2+, and no major adverse events related to the instrument or operation occurred during the follow-up period after the implantation of the instrument.

    Measured: 1 month

  4. New York Heart Association (NYHA) class

    NYHA grading was used to evaluate the cardiac function status of subjects

    Measured: 12 months

  5. Living quality

    Postoperative SF-12 was used to evaluate the quality of life of the subjects

    Measured: 12 months

  6. Incidence of major adverse events(MAE)

    MAE definition: Any complications related to devices or surgeries, including but not limited to: death, emergency surgery, severe cardiac tamponade requiring pericardiocentesis or operation, hemorrhage, stroke related to operation.

    Measured: 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing MitralStitch in people with Mitral Regurgitation, run by Hangzhou Valgen Medtech Co., Ltd at 1 site in China.

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 8 inclusion and 20 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. 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?

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?

The success rate (time frame: 1 year). 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 28 Feb 2020.
