Recruiting NA Mitral Regurgitation

New treatment option for Mitral Regurgitation

Official title The ENCIRCLE Trial

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT04153292

What this study is testing

What it's testing
This study will establish the safety and effectiveness of the SAPIEN M3 System in subjects with symptomatic, at least 3+ mitral regurgitation (MR) for whom commercially available surgical or transcatheter treatment options are deemed unsuitable. Following completion of enrollment, subjects will be eligible for enrollment in the continued access phase of the trial.

Who can take part

Ages 18 and older

You may be able to join if

  • 18 years of age or older
  • MR ≥ 3+
  • NYHA functional class ≥ II
  • Per the Heart Team, commercially available surgical or transcatheter treatment options are deemed unsuitable due to clinical, anatomic or technical...
  • Subject's heart failure management has been optimized based on subject characteristics and applicable guidelines, and stable for at least 30 days...

You likely can't join if

  • Mitral/cardiac anatomy that would preclude appropriate delivery and deployment of the SAPIEN M3 dock or valve
  • Inappropriate anatomy for femoral introduction and delivery of the SAPIEN M3 dock and valve
  • Presence of any device that will contact or interfere with the SAPIEN M3 System during delivery or after implantation
  • Left ventricular ejection fraction \<25%
  • Severe right ventricular dysfunction
  • Need for aortic, tricuspid or pulmonic valve intervention within the next 12 months
