Brief Summary

No previous study has evaluated the effectiveness of transcatheter edge-to-edge mitral valve repair (TEER) in patients with ATTR-associated cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM) and significant mitral regurgitation, as this specific patient population was specifically excluded from previous large TEER trials. From a pathophysiological perspective, effective treatment of significant regurgitant volume and consecutive improvement of forward volume appears highly desirable in a condition with intrinsically low output. However, whether this translates into improved functional capacity, better quality of life, and better clinical outcomes compared to conservative heart failure management alone remains to be investigated.

Detailed Description

It is the aim of this trial to investigate the effectiveness of TEER therapy in patients with proven ATTR-CM and concomitant significant MR as compared to medical therapy alone. Effectiveness will be tested via hard clinical outcomes, biomarkers, functional capacity, and quality of life.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
A hierarchical combination of all-cause mortality, cumulative frequency of cardiovascular-related hospitalization, change from baseline in NT-proBNP, and change from baseline in 6MWT through month 2424 months

Each subject will be compared to every other subject within a stratum over outcomes of all-cause mortality (death due to any cause), cumulative frequency of cardiovascular-related hospitalizations (number of times a subject is hospitalized for cardiovascular-related causes), change from baseline in NT-proBNP, and change from baseline in the total distance walked in 6 minutes (distance in meters).

The hierarchical approach with the Finkelstein-Schoenfeld test will be applied and the test recognizes the greater importance of the mortality endpoint. Scores are transformed to -1, 0, +1. The alternative hypothesis is a subject in the TEER+OMT group will have a greater score than a subject in the placebo group.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Evaluate effects of TEER on quality of life (QoL) through Month 2424 months

Change from Baseline to Month 24 as measured in the Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire Overall Summary score (KCCQ-OS). The KCCQ is a 23-item questionnaire developed to measure health status and health-related quality of life in subjects with heart failure. Items include heart failure symptoms, impact on physical and social functions, and how their heart failure impacts their quality of life (QoL). An Overall Summary score can be derived from the physical function, symptom (frequency and severity), social function and quality of life domains. For each domain, scores are transformed to a range of 0-100 using the formula, 100\*\[(mean of questions actually answered) - 1\]/4, in which higher scores reflect better health status. The Overall Summary score is the mean of the domains scores, range from 0 to 100, in which higher scores reflect better health status.
