Trial summary

Patients with severe aortic regurgitation (AR) may be affected, in many cases, by a concomitant moderate or severe mitral regurgitation (MR). Tethering of the mitral valve leaflets and/or annular dilatation, both consequences of left ventricular dilatation, represent the most common mechanisms underlying the… Read more about this study

About this study

Patients with severe aortic regurgitation (AR) may be affected, in many cases, by a concomitant moderate or severe mitral regurgitation (MR). Tethering of the mitral valve leaflets and/or annular dilatation, both consequences of left ventricular dilatation, represent the most common mechanisms underlying the development of MR which can therefore be defined as "secondary" in this case.

When both mitral and aortic regurgitation are severe, patients show a decreased survival due to the pathophysiological consequences of the combination of these pathological conditions. In this case, surgery on both diseased valves is required to interrupt the natural history of the disease and is widely supported by current guidelines. On the other hand, little is known about the fate and prognostic implications of moderate MR secondary to severe AR and whether or not it should be treated at the time of aortic valve surgery. For this condition, the current guidelines do not provide specific recommendations, referring generically to the decision of the Heart Team.

To date, there are few data describing the evolution of moderate MR in patients undergoing surgery for severe AR and insufficient data to support recommendations regarding the treatment of moderate MR concurrently with treatment of AR, so that this decision is now entrusted to the evaluation of the Heart Team. It is therefore desirable to evaluate the outcomes of these patients.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the short- and long-term fate of secondary moderate MR in patients undergoing aortic valve replacement for severe AR.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Aortic valve replacementProcedure or surgery

    An aortic valve prosthesis is surgically implanted to treat AR

  • Mitral valve annuloplastyProcedure or surgery

    Surgical repair of the mitral valve in which a prosthetic ring is implanted to treat MR

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Aortic Regurgitation and Functional Mitral Regurgitation, run by Michele De Bonis at 1 site in Italy.

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 1 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Mar 2023. 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 Italy. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Mortality for cardiac causes (time frame: Through study completion, an average of 7 years). 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 20 Mar 2023.
