Brief Summary

Safety and performance evaluation of the NeoChord Transcatheter Mitral Repair System in patients with degenerative mitral valve regurgitation.

Detailed Description

The objective of this First-in-Human (FIH) evaluation is to assess the safety and performance of the NeoChord Transcatheter Mitral Repair System in treating subjects with symptomatic mitral regurgitation, who are at high risk for standard mitral valve surgery, by using a minimally invasive transcatheter mitral valve repair procedure. The NeoChord Transcatheter Mitral Repair System is indicated for use in patients with grade 3+ or 4+ mitral valve regurgitation who are candidates for surgical mitral valve repair or replacement. The intended purpose for the NeoChord Transcatheter Mitral Repair System is for repair of chordal elongation and rupture resulting in mitral valve prolapse.

Conditions

Mitral Valve Insufficiency; Mitral Valve Prolapse; Degenerative; Mitral Regurgitation; Heart Valve Diseases; Heart Diseases; Cardiovascular Diseases

Study Design

• Allocation Method: NA
• Intervention Model: SINGLE_GROUP
• Primary Study Purpose: TREATMENT
• Blinding Strategy: NONE

Study Groups

Treatment with NeoChord Transcatheter Mitral Repair System

Implanting ePTFE sutures as artificial neochordae using NeoChord Transcatheter Mitral Repair System

Group Type: EXPERIMENTAL

NeoChord Transcatheter Mitral Repair System (or "NeoChord System")

Intervention Type: DEVICE

The NeoChord Transcatheter Mitral Repair System is a system of delivery devices and implantable Neochordae and Anchor. The system is designed to percutaneously deliver and deploy the implantable ePTFE sutures, "Neochordae" as artificial chordae at the mitral valve and connect them to the implantable ventricular anchor, "Anchor", using a catheter based system placed into the left side of the heart through the interatrial septum.
