Registry for patients with bioprosthetic mitral valve failure

Evaluation of Clinical Outcomes of Transseptal Transcatheter Mitral Valve-in-Valve Replacement for Degenerated Bioprostheses - The China Mviv Registry

Not applicable Interventional Xiamen Cardiovascular Hospital, Xiamen University · NCT05925335

This study is testing a new heart procedure for patients with failing bioprosthetic mitral valves who can't have traditional surgery to see if it helps improve their symptoms and overall health.

What this trial studies

This study evaluates the safety and efficacy of transseptal transcatheter mitral valve-in-valve replacement (TMVR) for patients experiencing bioprosthetic mitral valve degeneration. It focuses on individuals who are at high risk for conventional mitral valve surgery or who refuse redo surgery after shared decision-making. The study aims to gather data on clinical outcomes in the Asia-Pacific region, where limited information currently exists. Participants must have symptomatic mitral valve disease and meet specific eligibility criteria, including age and functional class.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates include adults with degenerated surgical mitral bioprostheses and moderate to severe mitral regurgitation or severe stenosis.

Not a fit: Patients who are not symptomatic from mitral valve disease or those who are not eligible for TMVR due to other health issues may not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this approach could provide a less invasive treatment option for patients with bioprosthetic mitral valve failure, potentially improving their quality of life.

How similar studies have performed: Previous studies in the US and Europe have shown success with similar TMVR approaches, indicating potential for positive outcomes in this study.

Eligibility criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

* Subject had a degenerated surgical mitral bioprosthesis with at least moderate to severe mitral regurgitation or severe stenosis with echocardiographically derived mitral valve area (MVA) of ≤1.5 cm2
* Subjiect is symptomatic from mitral valve disease, as demonstrated by reported NYHA Functional Class II or greater.
* Subject is at least 18 years old.
* Heart team (including cardiac surgeon) agree on eligibility including assessment that transeptal, transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TsMVR) and redo surgical mitral valve replacement (rSMVR) are appropriate.
* The study patient or the study patient's legal representative informed of the nature of the study, agreed to its provisions and provided written informed consent as approved by the Institutional Review Board (IRB) center.
