Information provided by: Viacor
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00787293
  Purpose

Improvement in heart failure with moderate to severe mitral regurgitation using a percutaneously delivered implantable device.


Condition Intervention Phase

Mitral Regurgitation
Device: PTMA (Percutaneous Transvenous Mitral Annuloplasty) Implant
Phase II

U.S. FDA Resources
Study Type: Interventional
Study Design: Treatment, Open Label, Uncontrolled, Single Group Assignment, Safety/Efficacy Study
Official Title: A Multi-Center Study of the Safety and Efficacy of the Percutaneous Transvenous Mitral Annuloplasty System to Reduce Mitral Valve Regurgitation in Patients With Heart Failure

Further study details as provided by Viacor:

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Freedom from MACE at 30 days post-procedure and quantitative MR reduction at 6 months [ Time Frame: 30 days to 6 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • % of patients experiencing procedure or device-related adverse events [ Time Frame: 30 days to 6 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
  • Technical procedural success: % of patients maintaining a reduction of mitral annulus A/P dimension, sustained MR reduction, and decrease in left ventricular dimensions to specified degrees [ Time Frame: 6 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Clinical status: % of treated patients exhibiting improvements in defined QoL parameters [ Time Frame: 6 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Estimated Enrollment: 30
Study Start Date: October 2008
Arms Assigned Interventions
1: Experimental
Patient is screened for study and given baseline assessments. Patient receives a diagnostic PTMA assessment and if responsive, receives a PTMA implant.
Device: PTMA (Percutaneous Transvenous Mitral Annuloplasty) Implant
Percutaneous assessment from right or left subclavian vein, with PTMA implant in the coronary sinus, great cardiac vein.
