About this study

Official title: A Prospective Controlled Study for the Treatment Effect of Different Intervention Strategies for Pediatric Mitral Regurgitation--A Multicenter Prospective Cohort Study of Innovative Drug Therapy in Improving Left Ventricular Function After Mitral Repair

The goal of this observational study is to compare the safety and effectiveness of a modified drug therapy with traditional drug therapy in pediatric patients after mitral repair.

The main questions it aims to answer are:

  • Can a modified drug therapy improve both left ventricular and mitral valve function in pediatric patients after mitral repair?
  • Can the adverse drug reactions caused by the modified drug therapy be non-inferior (clinically acceptable) to those of the traditional drug therapy? Participants will be assigned to either the Modified Drug Therapy Group (comprising angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor (ACE-I), beta-blockers, diuretics, potassium supplements, and spironolactone) or the Traditional Drug Therapy Group (diuretics and potassium supplements) based on personal preferences and clinical assessments by their attending physicians. They will undergo a 6-months course of medication. Additionally, echocardiography, electrocardiograms, complete blood counts, biochemical tests, and measurements of N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) were conducted before the initiation of medication therapy and at 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months after treatment commencement. Researchers will compare the Modified Drug Therapy Group and the Traditional Drug Therapy Group to see if the recurrence rate of moderate to severe mitral valve regurgitation, as assessed by echocardiography after 6 months of treatment, is lower in the former than in the latter.

What is being measured

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

  1. the recurrence rate of moderate to severe mitral valve regurgitation

    During follow-up visits, echocardiographic examination is conducted to measure the degree of mitral valve regurgitation. If it falls within the moderate to severe range, it is recorded as a recurrence.

    Measured: after 12 months of treatment

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Improvement in symptoms

    Based on patient and caregiver descriptions, if symptoms such as chest discomfort, shortness of breath, and delayed development show improvement following physical activity, it is recorded as an improvement in symptoms.

    Measured: after 12 months of treatment

  2. Improvement in left ventricular function

    Based on the echocardiogram, measurements are taken for left ventricular ejection fraction, left ventricular fractional shortening, left ventricular end-diastolic diameter, left ventricular end-diastolic volume, left ventricular end-systolic diameter, and left ventricular end-systolic volume.

    Measured: after 12 months of treatment

  3. NT-proBNP level

    The trend in NT-proBNP levels.

    Measured: after 12 months of treatment

  4. Incidence rate of drug adverse reactions

    The incidence of abnormalities in complete blood count, electrolytes, liver and kidney function, and cardiac enzymes.

    Measured: after 12 months of treatment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Congenital Mitral Insufficiency, run by China National Center for Cardiovascular Diseases 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 2 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Sep 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 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?

Contact Kai Ma, PhD (+86 15901428497, drmakaifw@yahoo.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

the recurrence rate of moderate to severe mitral valve regurgitation (time frame: after 12 months of treatment). 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 15 Sep 2023.
