About this study

Official title: PASCAL vs. MitralClip for Mitral Valve Transchatheter Edge-to-Edge Repair: A Prospective, Single-center, Open-label Study

Comparsion of the current two available TEER systems, the MitraClip with the PASCAL repair system in terms of their effectiveness and safety in patients with degenerative mitral regurgitation (DMR) and in patients with functional regurgitation (FMR), who were referred for an interventional therapy by the heart team due to a high surgical risk profile.

Read the detailed description

A prospective single-center, open-label study to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of transcatheter mitral valve repair of the mitral valve (M-TEER) using the Edwards PASCAL Transcatheter Valve Repair System compared to using the Abbott MitraClip in patients with severe and symptomatic degenerative or functional mitral regurgitation (FMR). The type of device system used was not randomized but was determined by the operational structuring of our mitral valve program such that patients were scheduled for the next available implantation date with weekly alternating time slots for MitraClip device and PASCAL device. Treating physicians had no influence on scheduling or system selection.

Follow-up examinations will be performed one month and one year after the procedure with assessment of echocardiographic and functional status based on the New York Heart Association (NYHA) grade. Patient characteristics, baseline data, and data related to the procedure were assessed using a registry, medical records and the procedure protocols.

This study is a subproject of the MitraClip® Registry (NCT02033811)

What participants receive

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

  • PASCAL vs. MitraClipDevice

    transcatheter mitral valve repair of the mitral valve (M-TEER) using the Edwards PASCAL Transcatheter Valve Repair System or the Abbott MitraClip in patients with severe and symptomatic degenerative or functional mitral regurgitation (FMR).

    The type of device system used was not randomized but was determined by the operational structuring of the mitral valve program such that patients were scheduled for the next available implantation date with weekly alternating time slots for MitraClip device and PASCAL device.

What is being measured

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

  1. Procedural success

    as defined by the Mitral Valve Academy Research Consortium (MVARC)

    Measured: one month after implantation

  2. Composite endpoint of all-cause death and heart failure hospitalization

    Measured: one year after implantation

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Grade of Mitral Regurgitation

    measured by echocardiography

    Measured: one month and one year after implantation

  2. Functional status

    according to New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional class

    Measured: one month and one year after implantation

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Mitral Regurgitation and Functional Mitral Regurgitation, run by Heinrich-Heine University, Duesseldorf at 1 site in Germany.

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 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 May 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 Germany. 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?

Procedural success (time frame: one month after implantation). 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 19 May 2023.
