Heart procedure may fix leaky valves in AF patients, new trial aims to prove it

NCT ID NCT06883864

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study tests whether a catheter ablation procedure can reduce severe mitral valve leakage in people with persistent atrial fibrillation (a type of irregular heartbeat). About 146 adults aged 18-80 with both conditions will either get the ablation plus standard care or just standard care. The main goal is to see if the valve leakage improves after 3 months.

Phase

Not a phased trial

Phase numbers describe drug development. The registry uses this when they do not apply, as it does for trials of devices, procedures or behaviour changes, and for observational studies.

Participants

About 146 people

The number the study aims to enrol. It can still change while the study runs.

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Patients were required to have moderate-to-severe or greater (≥3+) atrial functional mitral regurgitation assessed by transthoracic echocardiography within 14 days before randomization. Mitral regurgitation severity was graded by an echocardiography core-lab based on the American Society of Echocardiography criteria, specifically an effective regurgitant orifice area (EROA) ≥30 mm² 2. Age 18-80 years 3. Persistent atrial fibrillation diagnosed by electrocardiogram 4. Left ventricular ejection fraction ≥50% assessed by transthoracic echocardiography within 14 days before randomization(confirmed by the echocardiography core-lab) 5. Left ventricular end-diastolic internal diameter ≤60 mm and left atrial anterior- posterior diameter ≤60 mm in echocardiographic parasternal long-axis view within 14 days before randomization(confirmed by the echocardiography core-lab) 6. Agree to undergo catheter ablation and be able to undergo follow-up as required. Exclusion Criteria: 1. paroxysmal atrial fibrillation, atrial fibrillation secondary to an apparently reversible cause, or with history of previous ablation; 2. primary mitral valve pathology, including calcification, sclerosis, prolapse, flail, tendon cable rupture, valve degeneration, infective endocarditis, rheumatic lesions, or ischemic lesions; 3. history of previous mitral valve surgery or transcatheter manipulation; 4. mitral valve orifice area \<4 cm2; 5. aortic valve disease requiring surgical or transcatheter intervention; 6. untreated clinically significant coronary artery disease requiring revascularization; 7. history of previous myocardial infarction; 8. previous definitive diagnosis of cardiomyopathies such as dilated cardiomyopathy, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, restrictive cardiomyopathy, constrictive pericarditis, arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy, and infiltrative cardiomyopathies (e.g., amyloidosis, hemochromatosis, and nodular disease) 9. echocardiographic evidence of intracardiac mass or thrombus; 10. implant of cardiac device (pacemaker, implantable cardioverter defibrillator, cardiac resynchronization therapy device, or left atria appendage closure); 11. hemodynamic instability requiring cardiac assist devices, intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP), or other hemodynamic support; 12. any percutaneous cardiac intervention (percutaneous coronary intervention, transcatheter aortic valve replacement, etc.) within the 30 days prior to randomization, 13. any cardiac surgery within the 6 months prior to randomization; 14. active infections requiring current antibiotic therapy; 15. a known hypersensitivity or contradiction to procedure medications which cannot be adequately managed medically; 16. contraindication to appropriate anti-coagulation therapy; 17. chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) requiring continuous home oxygen therapy or chronic oral steroid therapy; 18. acute cerebrovascular accident within 30 days prior to randomization or Modified Rankin Score ≥ 4; 19. symptomatic severe carotid stenosis (\>70% by ultrasound); 20. other planned surgical or interventional procedures within the next 3 months; 21. liver failure; 22. renal failure or dialysis status; 23. pregnant or planning pregnancy within the next 3 months; 24. life expectancy \< 12 months (e.g., advanced malignant tumors); 25. currently participating in other interventional studies; 26. circumstances that, in the judgment of the researcher, make participation in this study unsuitable.
