Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This is a multi-center, prospective, observational study designed to evaluate the impact of LV myocardial fibrosis extent assessed by CMR on LV reverse remodeling and clinical outcomes post TEER. The target sample will be up to 125 patients enrolled to achieve 100 evaluable at 6 months of follow-up. Enrollment will occur at up to eight centers.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Patients undergoing guideline-directed TEER with FDA-approved MitraClip at the participating centers will be screened and recruited for study participation. After informed consent is obtained, patients will undergo a clinically-indicated baseline CMR study with gadolinium up to 90 days before TEER procedure. In addition, a quality-of-life surveillance questionnaire (KCCQ) will be completed at the same baseline visit.

Six months after TEER patients will return to clinic to repeat the quality of life surveillance questionnaire (KCCQ), the CMR study and a transthoracic echocardiogram. The 6-month CMR study and echocardiogram should be completed on the same day or no greater than 30 days apart if the same day is not feasible. Blood samples will be collected on the day of the CMR to provide the hematocrit for ECV calculation. These samples are done as standard clinical care.

Electronic Health Records (EHR) will be reviewed and phone contact performed yearly for up to three years after TEER to evaluate clinical outcomes (heart failure hospitalization, outpatient use of intravenous inotropes, LVAD implant, heart transplant, or death).

1 group undergoing guideline directed TEER with FDA approved MitraClip

Cohort will undergo a clinically indicated baseline CMR study with contrast up to 90 days before TEER procedure. Quality of life questionnaire will also be completed. At 6 months, individuals will return to the clinic to repeat quality of life questionnaires, the CMR study and a transthoracic echocardiogram.

Cardiac MRI

Intervention Type DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Clinically indicated baseline CMR study with contrast up to 90 days before TEER procedure, including KCCQ questionnaire. At 6 months, participants will return for repeat of KCCQ, CMR study and a transthoracic echocardiogram. Blood samples, done as standard clinical care for hemotocrit for ECV calculation, will be obtained.
