[PMID: 38806171 DOI: 10.1002/ehf2.14857] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/20/2024] [Revised: 04/23/2024] [Accepted: 04/24/2024] [Indexed: 05/30/2024] Open
Abstract
In the last years, major progress has occurred in heart failure (HF) management. The 2023 ESC focused update of the 2021 HF guidelines introduced new key recommendations based on the results of the last years of science. First, two drugs, sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors and finerenone, a novel nonsteroidal, selective mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist (MRA), are recommended for the prevention of HF in patients with diabetic chronic kidney disease (CKD). Second, SGLT2 inhibitors are now recommended for the treatment of HF across the entire left ventricular ejection fraction spectrum. The benefits of quadruple therapy in patients with HF with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) are well established. Its rapid and early up-titration along with a close follow-up with frequent clinical and laboratory re-assessment after an episode of acute HF (the so-called 'high-intensity care' strategy) was associated with better outcomes in the STRONG-HF trial. Patients experiencing an episode of worsening HF might require a fifth drug, vericiguat. In the STEP-HFpEF-DM and STEP-HFpEF trials, semaglutide 2.4 mg once weekly administered for 1 year decreased body weight and significantly improved quality of life and the 6 min walk distance in obese patients with HF with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) with or without a history of diabetes. Further data on safety and efficacy, including also hard endpoints, are needed to support the addition of acetazolamide or hydrochlorothiazide to a standard diuretic regimen in patients hospitalized due to acute HF. In the meantime, PUSH-AHF supported the use of natriuresis-guided diuretic therapy. Further options and most recent evidence for the treatment of HF, including specific drugs for cardiomyopathies (i.e., mavacamten in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and tafamidis in transthyretin cardiac amyloidosis), device therapies, cardiac contractility modulation and percutaneous treatment of valvulopathies, with the recent finding from the TRILUMINATE Pivotal trial, are also reviewed in this article.

Transcatheter Mitral Valve Repair With the MitraClip Device for Prior Mitral Valve Repair Failure: Insights From the GIOTTO-FAILS Study. J Am Heart Assoc 2024; 13:e033605. [PMID: 38742523 DOI: 10.1161/jaha.123.033605] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/17/2023] [Accepted: 02/08/2024] [Indexed: 05/16/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Minimally invasive mitral valve repair has a favorable risk-benefit profile in patients with significant de novo mitral regurgitation. Its role in patients with prior mitral valve repair is uncertain. We aimed to appraise the outcome of patients undergoing transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) with prior transcatheter or surgical mitral valve repair (SMVR). METHODS AND RESULTS We queried the Italian multicenter registry on TEER with MitraClip, distinguishing naïve patients from those with prior TEER or (SMVR). Inhospital and long-term clinical/echocardiographic outcomes were appraised. The primary outcome was the occurrence of death or rehospitalization for heart failure. A total of 2238 patients were included, with 2169 (96.9%) who were naïve to any mitral intervention, 29 (1.3%) with prior TEER, and 40 (1.8%) with prior SMVR. Several significant differences were found in baseline clinical and imaging features. Respectively, device success was obtained in 2120 (97.7%), 28 (96.6%), and 38 (95.0%, P=0.261) patients; procedural success in 2080 (95.9%), 25 (86.2%), and 38 (95.0%; P=0.047); and inhospital death in 61 (2.8%), 1 (3.5%), and no (P=0.558) patients. Clinical follow-up after a mean of 14 months showed similar rates of death, cardiac death, rehospitalization, rehospitalization for heart failure, and their composite (all P>0.05). Propensity score-adjusted analysis confirmed unadjusted analysis, with lower procedural success for the prior TEER group (odds ratio, 0.28 [95% CI, 0.09-0.81]; P=0.019) but similar odds ratios and hazard ratios for all other outcomes in the naïve, TEER, and SMVR groups (all P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS In carefully selected patients, TEER can be performed using the MitraClip device even after prior TEER or SMVR.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW This review offers insights into percutaneous mitral valve management, emphasizing pivotal trials that contributed to its evolution. RECENT FINDINGS Mitral regurgitation (MR) is a highly prevalent heart valve disease, with surgical intervention being the gold standard for managing primary MR. However, a notable proportion of patients face ineligibility criteria or are at high surgical risk, particularly in the setting of secondary MR. To fill this gap, transcatheter therapies have emerged as less invasive alternatives. Initially guided by the EVEREST trial criteria, transcatheter leaflet repair techniques have shown impressive technological improvements, addressing nowadays a wide range of anatomical scenarios. Evidence supporting the safety and efficacy of transcatheter leaflet repair is derived from pivotal trials, including EVEREST II, COAPT, MITRA-FR, and CLASP IID, and large multicenter registries including EXPAND, EXPAND G4, and EuroSMR. However, not all patients meet the anatomical and clinical criteria for leaflet repair. For those patients, transcatheter mitral valve replacement may be a minimally invasive option and multiple clinical trials are current underway. SUMMARY From MitraClip to newer and more innovative technologies, the landscape of percutaneous mitral valve interventions continues to evolve, offering new hopes to patients who may not be ideal candidates for conventional surgery.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Patients with advanced age and frailty require interventions for structural heart disease at an increasing rate. These patients typically experience higher rates of postoperative morbidity, mortality and prolonged hospital length of stay, loss of independence as well as associated increased costs to the healthcare system. Therefore, it is becoming critically important to raise awareness and develop strategies to improve clinical outcomes in the contemporary, high-risk patient population undergoing cardiacprocedures. RECENT FINDINGS Percutaneous options for structural heart disease have dramatically improved the therapeutic options for some older, frail, high-risk patients; however, others may still require cardiac surgery. Minimally invasive techniques can reduce some of the physiologic burden experienced by patients undergoing surgery and improve recovery. Enhanced Recovery After Cardiac Surgery (ERAS Cardiac) is a comprehensive, interdisciplinary, evidence-based approach to perioperative care. It has been shown to improve recovery and patient satisfaction while reducing complications and length of stay. SUMMARY Combining minimally invasive cardiac surgery with enhanced recovery protocols may result in improved patient outcomes for a patient population at high risk of morbidity and mortality following cardiac surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mitral transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (M-TEER) is a guideline-recommended treatment option for patients with severe symptomatic mitral regurgitation (MR). Outcomes with the PASCAL system in a post-market setting have not been established. OBJECTIVES The authors report 30-day and 1-year outcomes from the MiCLASP (Transcatheter Repair of Mitral Regurgitation with Edwards PASCAL Transcatheter Valve Repair System) European post-market clinical follow-up study. METHODS Patients with symptomatic, clinically significant MR were prospectively enrolled. The primary safety endpoint was clinical events committee-adjudicated 30-day composite major adverse event rate and the primary effectiveness endpoint was echocardiographic core laboratory-assessed MR severity at discharge compared with baseline. Clinical, echocardiographic, functional, and quality-of-life outcomes were assessed at 1 year. RESULTS A total of 544 patients were enrolled (59% functional MR, 30% degenerative MR). The 30-day composite major adverse event rate was 6.8%. MR reduction was significant from baseline to discharge and sustained at 1 year with 98% of patients achieving MR ≤2+ and 82.6% MR ≤1+ (all P < 0.001 vs baseline). One-year Kaplan-Meier estimate for survival was 87.3%, and freedom from heart failure hospitalization was 84.3%. Significant functional and quality-of-life improvements were observed at 1 year, including 71.6% in NYHA functional class I/II, 14.4-point increase in Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire score, and 24.2-m improvement in 6-minute walk distance (all P < 0.001 vs baseline). CONCLUSIONS One-year outcomes of this large cohort from the MiCLASP study demonstrate continued safety and effectiveness of M-TEER with the PASCAL system in a post-market setting. Results demonstrate high survival and freedom from heart failure hospitalization, significant and sustained MR reduction, and improvements in symptoms, functional capacity, and quality of life.

Abstract
Functional mitral regurgitation appears commonly among all heart failure phenotypes and can affect symptom burden and degree of maladaptive remodeling. Transcatheter mitral valve edge-to-edge repair therapies recently became an important part of the routine heart failure armamentarium for carefully selected and medically optimized candidates. Patient selection is considering heart failure staging, relevant comorbidities, as well as anatomic criteria. Indications and device platforms are currently expanding.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Early studies of the Tendyne transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR) showed promising results in a small selective cohort. OBJECTIVES The authors present 1-year data from the currently largest commercial, real-world cohort originating from the investigator-initiated TENDER (Tendyne European Experience) registry. METHODS All patients from the TENDER registry eligible for 1-year follow-up were included. The primary safety endpoint was 1-year cardiovascular mortality. Primary performance endpoint was reduction of mitral regurgitation (MR) up to 1 year. RESULTS Among 195 eligible patients undergoing TMVR (median age 77 years [Q1-Q3: 71-81 years], 60% men, median Society of Thoracic Surgeons Predicted Risk of Mortality 5.6% [Q1-Q3: 3.6%-8.9%], 81% in NYHA functional class III or IV, 94% with MR 3+/4+), 31% had "real-world" indications for TMVR (severe mitral annular calcification, prior mitral valve treatment, or others) outside of the instructions for use. The technical success rate was 95%. The cardiovascular mortality rate was 7% at 30 day and 17% at 1 year (all-cause mortality rates were 9% and 29%, respectively). Reintervention or surgery following discharge was 4%, while rates of heart failure hospitalization reduced from 68% in the preceding year to 25% during 1-year follow-up. Durable MR reduction to ≤1+ was achieved in 98% of patients, and at 1 year, 83% were in NYHA functional class I or II. There was no difference in survival and major adverse events between on-label use and "real-world" indications up to 1 year. CONCLUSIONS This large, real-world, observational registry reports high technical success, durable and complete MR elimination, significant clinical benefits, and a 1-year cardiovascular mortality rate of 17% after Tendyne TMVR. Outcomes were comparable between on-label use and "real-world" indications, offering a safe and efficacious treatment option for patients without alternative treatments.

National Variation in Hospital MTEER Outcomes and Correlation With TAVR Outcomes: STS/ACC TVT Registry Analysis. JACC Cardiovasc Interv 2024; 17:505-515. [PMID: 38340102 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcin.2023.11.012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/16/2023] [Revised: 10/31/2023] [Accepted: 11/07/2023] [Indexed: 02/12/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND A single, multitiered valve center designation has been proposed to publicly identify centers with expertise for all valve therapies. The correlation between transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) and mitral transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (MTEER) procedures is unknown. OBJECTIVES The authors sought to examine the relationship between site-level volumes and outcomes for TAVR and MTEER. We further explored variability between sites for MTEER outcomes. METHODS Using the STS/ACC TVT (Society of Thoracic Surgeons/American College of Cardiology Transcatheter Valve Therapy) national registry, TAVR and MTEER procedures at sites offering both therapies from 2013 to 2022 were examined. Sites were ranked into deciles of adjusted in-hospital and 30-day outcomes separately for TAVR and MTEER and compared. Stepwise, hierarchical multivariable models were constructed for MTEER outcomes, and the median OR was calculated. RESULTS Between 2013 and 2022, 384,394 TAVRs and 53,274 MTEERs (median annualized volumes: 93.6 and 18.8, respectively) were performed across 453 U.S. sites. Annualized TAVR and MTEER volumes were moderately correlated (r = 0.48; P < 0.001). After adjustment, 14.3% of sites had the same decile rank for TAVR and MTEER 30-day composite outcome, 50.6% were within 2 decile ranks; 35% had more discordant outcomes for the 2 procedures (P = 0.0005). For MTEER procedures, the median OR for the 30-day composite outcome was 1.57 (95% CI: 1.51-1.64), indicating a 57% variability in outcome by site. CONCLUSIONS There is modest correlation between hospital-level volumes for TAVR and MTEER but low interprocedural correlation of outcomes. For similar patients, site-level variability for mortality/morbidity following MTEER was high. Factors influencing outcomes and "centers of excellence" as a whole may differ for TAVR and MTEER.

Association Between Clinical Trial Participation Status and Outcomes With Mitral Transcatheter Edge-to-Edge Repair. JACC Cardiovasc Interv 2024; 17:520-530. [PMID: 38418055 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcin.2023.10.063] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/08/2023] [Revised: 10/27/2023] [Accepted: 10/29/2023] [Indexed: 03/01/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Clinical trials have demonstrated the efficacy and safety of mitral transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (M-TEER) for selected patients with severe mitral regurgitation. However, the generalizability of trial results to real-world patients remains uncertain. OBJECTIVES The authors aimed to compare baseline characteristics and in-hospital outcomes among trial participants with nonparticipants undergoing M-TEER. METHODS Using the National Inpatient Sample database years 2016-2020, M-TEER admissions were identified and categorized into trial participants vs none. We also identified a cohort of trial noneligible patients based on clinical exclusion criteria from pivotal trials. Multivariate regression analysis was performed to compare in-hospital outcomes. The primary outcome was in-hospital mortality, and secondary outcomes included in-hospital complications, length of stay, and hospitalization cost. RESULTS Among 38,770 M-TEER admissions from 2016 to 2020, 11,450 (29.5%) were trial participants, 22,975 (59.3%) were eligible nonparticipants, and 2,960 (7.6%) were noneligible. Baseline characteristics and comorbidity profiles were mostly similar between trial participants vs eligible nonparticipants. In-hospital mortality (adjusted OR [aOR]: 0.98; 95% CI: 0.60-1.62), cardiogenic shock (aOR: 1.06; 95% CI: 0.80-1.42), mechanical circulatory support (aOR: 0.91; 95% CI: 0.58-1.41), mechanical ventilation (aOR: 1.03; 95% CI: 0.74-1.42), and conversion to mitral valve surgery (aOR: 1.08; 95% CI: 0.57-2.03) were not different between both groups. Conversely, M-TEER for noneligible patients was associated with higher rates of mortality (aOR: 6.27; 95% CI: 3.75-10.45) and complications. CONCLUSIONS The majority of real-world M-TEER patients would have been eligible for clinical trial participation and had comparable clinical profiles and in-hospital outcomes to trial participants. However, noneligible patients had worse in-hospital outcomes compared with trial participants.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR) faces anatomical challenges, currently limiting widespread adoption. OBJECTIVES To describe the natural history and prognosis of patients ineligible for various TMVR devices. METHODS During a 4-year period (2019-2023) 3 TMVR devices (SAPIEN M3, Intrepid and Alta Valve) became available at a single institution (The Christ Hospital, Cincinnati, OH) in the setting of pivotal clinical trials or early feasibility study. Consenting patients who were deemed ineligible ≥1 of these trials were prospectively studied to capture anatomical reasons for ineligibility, cross-over to alternative mitral valve therapies (surgery or high-risk mitral transcatheter edge to edge repair [M-TEER]), and clinical events. RESULTS A total of 61 patients (out of 71 consenting patients or 85.9 %) were deemed ineligible for TMVR during the study period. The mean age was 79.2 ± 8.8 years, 65.6 % were female, with elevated surgical risk (median STS 4.3, IQR: 2.7-7.3). The 2 most common anatomical reasons for ineligibility were increased risk of left ventricular outflow tract obstruction (LVOTO) (n = 24, 39.3 %) and annular size (n = 29, 47.5 %). During follow-up (median 277 [162-555] days) there were 7 deaths (11.5 %) and 12 (19.7 %) hospitalizations for heart failure. Management strategies included high-risk M-TEER in 11 patients (1 death [9.0 %], 0 HF hospitalizations [0 %]), surgery in 9 patients (0 deaths, 1 HF hospitalizations [11.1 %]), and medical management in 41 patients (6 deaths [14.6 %], 11 HF hospitalizations [26.8 %]) (p = 0.715 for mortality and p = 0.093 for HF hospitalizations). Residual MR ≥ moderate was 0 %, 50 %, and 100 % for surgery, M-TEER and medical treatment, respectively (p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS One third of patients deemed ineligible for TMVR are candidates for high-risk M-TEER or surgery with acceptable morbidity and mortality. Our results have practical implications for patient management.

Abstract
Mitral regurgitation is a prevalent valvular disease, and its management has gained increasing importance because of the aging population. Although traditional surgery remains the gold standard, the field of transcatheter therapies, including transcatheter edge-to-edge repair and, more recently transcatheter mitral valve replacement are advancing and are being explored as viable alternatives, particularly for patients at high surgical risk. It is essential to emphasize the necessity of a multidisciplinary team approach, involving specialized valve teams, imaging experts, cardiac anaesthesiologists, and other relevant specialists, is crucial in achieving optimal outcomes. Furthermore, proper execution of procedures, postprocedural care, and diligent follow-up for these patients are essential components for successful results. It is essential to underscore that traditional mitral valve surgery continues to play a significant role. Simultaneously, it is important to acknowledge the expanding array of transcatheter interventions available for this specific patient population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND High surgical risk may preclude mitral valve replacement in many patients. Transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR) using transfemoral transseptal access is a novel technology for the treatment of mitral regurgitation (MR) in high-risk surgical patients. OBJECTIVES This analysis evaluates 30-day and 1-year outcomes of the Intrepid TMVR Early Feasibility Study in patients with ≥moderate-severe MR. METHODS The Intrepid TMVR Early Feasibility Study is a multicenter, prospective, single-arm study. Clinical events were adjudicated by a clinical events committee; endpoints were defined according to Mitral Valve Academic Research Consortium criteria. RESULTS A total of 33 patients, enrolled at 9 U.S. sites between February 2020 and August 2022, were included. The median age was 80 years, 63.6% of patients were men, and mean Society of Thoracic Surgeons Predicted Risk of Mortality for mitral valve replacement was 5.3%. Thirty-one (93.9%) patients were successfully implanted. Median postprocedural hospitalization length of stay was 5 days, and 87.9% of patients were discharged to home. At 30 days, there were no deaths or strokes, 8 (24.2%) patients had major vascular complications and none required surgical intervention, there were 4 cases of venous thromboembolism all successfully treated without sequelae, and 1 patient had mitral valve reintervention for severe left ventricular outflow tract obstruction. At 1 year, the Kaplan-Meier all-cause mortality rate was 6.7%, echocardiography showed ≤mild valvular MR, there was no/trace paravalvular leak in all patients, median mitral valve mean gradient was 4.6 mm Hg (Q1-Q3: 3.9-5.3 mm Hg), and 91.7% of survivors were in NYHA functional class I/II with a median 11.4-point improvement in Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire overall summary scores. CONCLUSIONS The early benefits of the Intrepid transfemoral transseptal TMVR system were maintained up to 1 year with low mortality, low reintervention, and near complete elimination of MR, demonstrating a favorable safety profile and durable valve function.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Favorable 6-month outcomes from the CLASP IID Registry (Edwards PASCAL transcatheter valve repair system pivotal clinical trial) demonstrated that mitral valve transcatheter edge-to-edge repair with the PASCAL transcatheter valve repair system is safe and beneficial for treating prohibitive surgical risk degenerative mitral regurgitation (DMR) patients with complex mitral valve anatomy. OBJECTIVES The authors sought to assess 1-year safety, echocardiographic and clinical outcomes from the CLASP IID Registry. METHODS Patients with 3+ or 4+ DMR who were at prohibitive surgical risk, had complex mitral valve anatomy based on the MitraClip Instructions for Use, and deemed suitable for treatment with the PASCAL system were enrolled prospectively. Safety, clinical, echocardiographic, functional, and quality-of-life outcomes were assessed at 1 year. Study oversight included a central screening committee, echocardiographic core laboratory, and clinical events committee. RESULTS Ninety-eight patients were enrolled. One-year Kaplan-Meier (KM) estimates of freedom from composite major adverse events, all-cause mortality, and heart failure hospitalization were 83.5%, 89.3%, and 91.5%, respectively. Significant mitral regurgitation (MR) reduction was achieved at 1 year (P < 0.001 vs baseline) including 93.2% at MR ≤2+ and 57.6% at MR ≤1+ with improvements in related echocardiographic measures. NYHA functional class and Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire score also improved significantly (P < 0.001 vs baseline). CONCLUSIONS At 1 year, treatment with the PASCAL system demonstrated safety and significant MR reduction, with continued improvement in clinical, echocardiographic, functional, and quality-of-life outcomes, illustrating the value of the PASCAL system in the treatment of prohibitive surgical risk patients with 3+ or 4+ DMR and complex mitral valve anatomy.

[PMID: 37741106 DOI: 10.1016/j.amjcard.2023.08.097] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/19/2023] [Revised: 08/10/2023] [Accepted: 08/17/2023] [Indexed: 09/25/2023]
Abstract
This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to investigate whether percutaneous mitral valve repair (PMVr) using MitraClip was more effective than surgery or medical therapy for long-term morbidity and mortality. We searched MEDLINE, EMBASE, and CENTRAL (Cochrane Library) databases to identify relevant studies that recruited adult patients with functional or secondary mitral valve regurgitation who underwent PMVr with MitraClip implantation using appropriate search terms and Boolean operators. The odds ratios (ORs) were pooled using the random-effects model. A total of 14 studies recruiting 2,593 patients were included. Within 12 months of follow-up, patients who underwent PMVr did not maintain mitral valve regurgitation grade 2+ (OR 0.22, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.12 to 0.41, p <0.0001, I2 = 0.0%, p = 0.52) or symptom-free heart failure (OR 0.47, 95% CI 0.29 to 0.77, p = 0.0028, I2 = 0.0%, p = 0.66) compared with their surgical counterparts. Patients were more likely to be rehospitalized for heart failure (OR 2.79, 95% CI 1.54 to 5.05, p = 0.0007, I2 = 0.0%, p = 0.51). However, there was no difference between the groups in terms of all-cause or cardiovascular mortality. Whereas, in comparison with medical therapy, PMVr significantly reduced all-cause mortality at 12 and ≥24 months of follow-up (OR 0.41, 95% CI 0.24, 0.69, p = 0.0009, I2 = 32%, p = 0.23 and OR 0.55, 95% CI 0.40, 0.75, p = 0.0002, I2 = 0.0%, p = 0.45, respectively). In conclusion, there was no difference in all-cause death at 12 or 24 months of follow-up between PMVr and the surgical approach, but the durability of valvular repair was inferior with PMVr. In comparison with medical therapy, there was a significant reduction in mortality with PMVr.

JACC Cardiovasc Interv 2023; 16:2600-2610. [PMID: 37877913 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcin.2023.09.029] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/15/2023] [Revised: 09/26/2023] [Accepted: 09/26/2023] [Indexed: 10/26/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The fourth-generation mitral transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (M-TEER) device introduced an improved clip deployment sequence, independent leaflet grasping, and 2 wider clip sizes to tailor the treatment of patients with mitral regurgitation (MR) for a broad range of anatomies. The 30-day safety and effectiveness of the fourth-generation M-TEER device were previously demonstrated. OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to evaluate 1-year outcomes in a contemporary, real-world cohort of subjects treated with the MitraClip G4 system. METHODS EXPAND G4 is an ongoing prospective, multicenter, international, single-arm study that enrolled subjects with primary and secondary MR. One-year outcomes included MR severity (echocardiographic core laboratory assessed), heart failure hospitalization, all-cause mortality, functional capacity (NYHA functional class), and quality of life (Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire). RESULTS A total of 1,164 subjects underwent M-TEER from 2020 to 2022. At 1 year, there was a durable reduction in MR to mild or less in 92.6% and to none or trace in 44.2% (P < 0.0001 vs baseline). Few subjects had major adverse events through 1 year (<2% for myocardial infarction, surgical reintervention, or single-leaflet device attachment). The 1-year Kaplan-Meier estimates for all-cause mortality and heart failure hospitalization were 12.3% and 16.9%. Significant improvements in functional capacity (NYHA functional class I or II in 82%; P < 0.0001 vs baseline) and quality of life (18.5-point Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire overall summary score improvement; P < 0.0001) were observed. CONCLUSIONS M-TEER with the fourth-generation M-TEER device was safe and effective at 1 year, with durable reductions in MR severity to ≤1+ in more than 90% of patients and concomitant improvements in functional status and quality of life.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Mitral and tricuspid regurgitation represents a clinical challenge. They are associated with a poor prognosis, and many patients are not eligible for conventional surgery. Transcatheter therapies have been the focus of numerous studies and devices over the past decade. Here, we provide a summary of current options for transcatheter treatment of these 2 entities. RECENT FINDINGS Recent studies have demonstrated the benefits of edge-to-edge repair for increasing numbers of patients. Encouraging early results with transcatheter valve replacement are also becoming available. To date, transcatheter edge-to-edge repair is currently the first-line transcatheter treatment for both mitral and tricuspid regurgitation for many patients who are not candidates for surgery. A number of transcatheter replacement devices are under development and clinical investigation but, for the most part, their current use is limited to compassionate cases or clinical trials.

Haurand JM, Haschemi J, Oehler D, Heinen Y, Polzin A, Kelm M, Horn P. Comparison of costs associated with transcatheter mitral valve repair: PASCAL vs MitraClip in a real-world setting. BMC Health Serv Res 2023; 23:945. [PMID: 37667270 PMCID: PMC10476289 DOI: 10.1186/s12913-023-09966-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/22/2023] [Accepted: 08/25/2023] [Indexed: 09/06/2023] Open
Abstract
AIMS We aimed to conduct a clinical process cost analysis to evaluate all upcoming costs of mitral valve transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (M-TEER) treatment using the MitraClip and the PASCAL repair system. METHODS First, we prospectively enrolled 107 M-TEER patients treated with either the PASCAL or MitraClip system and compared all upcoming costs during the M-TEER procedure and the associated in-hospital stay. Second, we retrospectively analysed 716 M-TEER procedures with regard to the occurrence of complications and their associated costs. All materials used in the catheterization laboratory for the procedures were evaluated. The cost analysis considered various expenses, such as general in-hospital costs, device costs, catheter laboratory and material costs. RESULTS In the prospective study, 51 patients were treated using the PASCAL system, and 56 were treated using the MitraClip system. The two groups had comparable baseline characteristics and comorbidities. The total in-hospital costs were 25 414 (Interquartile range (IQR) 24 631, 27 697) € in the PASCAL group and 25 633 (IQR 24 752, 28 256) € in the MitraClip group (p = 0.515). The major cost driver was initial material expenditure, mostly triggered by device costs, which were similar to the PASCAL and MitraClip systems. Overall intensive care unit and general ward costs did not differ between the PASCAL and MitraClip groups. In the retrospective analysis, M-TEER-related complications were rare but were associated with higher costs, mainly due to prolonged hospitalisation. CONCLUSION The major cost driver of M-TEER was the material expenditure, which was mostly triggered by high device costs. The costs of treating patients were similar for the PASCAL and MitraClip systems. M-TEER-related complications are associated with higher costs, mainly due to prolonged hospitalisation. This analysis provides valuable insights into reducing expenses by modifying the process of M-TEER.
