The additive reduction in the mitral annular axial dimensions (anteroposterior plus commissure-to-commissure axes) measured via echocardiography, paired by subject

Study Overview

Brief Summary

This is a single-arm, multi-center, open-label controlled study that will assess the safety and performance of the Accucinch System to induce left ventricular reverse remodeling and reduce the severity of functional mitral regurgitation in symptomatic adult patients with mitral regurgitation and left ventricular remodeling due to dilated cardiomyopathy (ischemic or non-ischemic etiology), who are of high operative risk.

Arms & Interventions

Accucinch Implant

Experimental

Accucinch Implant procedure is completed

Intervention: Accucinch Implant (Device)

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

The additive reduction in the mitral annular axial dimensions (anteroposterior plus commissure-to-commissure axes) measured via echocardiography, paired by subject

Time Frame: 6 months

The differences between baseline and 6 months in the sum of the two annulus measures will be calculated for each subject and the mean change tested via the paired t-test.

Secondary Outcomes

  • Device Success: Percentage of patients in whom all pre-specified device performance endpoints are met but no pre-specified device complications are met.(30 Days, 6 months, 12 months, and 2 years)
  • Procedural Safety: Incidence rate of the occurrence of the individual pre-specified safety events that occur within 30 days of the index procedure(30 days after the index procedure)
  • Long Term Safety: Incidence rate of the occurrence of the individual pre-specified safety events at 6 months, 1 year, and 2 years.(6 months, 1 year, 2 years post index procedure)
