About this study

Official title: A Feasibility Study of the Mitralign Annuloplasty System for the Treatment of Chronic Functional Mitral Valve Regurgitation

The purpose of this study is to test the safety and device performance of the Mitralign system ("MPAS") to treat functional mitral valve regurgitation.

Read the detailed description

The ALIGN study is a single arm, prospective study. The objective of the study is to investigate the safety and performance of a catheter-based plication device intended to reduce the circumference of the dilated mitral valve. The study will enroll up to 50 subjects from up to 5 sites (Paraguay, Columbia, Dominican Republic, Brazil, and India) who will be followed for 36 months post index procedure. Enrollment is defined at the time the study device is inserted into the body and patients will be followed at 30 days, and Months 6, 12, 24 and 36 post index procedure.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Major Adverse Events (MAE)

    MAE defined as occurrence of any of the following: Mitral valve-related surgery/intervention, myocardial infarction, cardiac tamponade, stroke, device and/or procedure-related death

    Measured: within 30 days post procedure

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Echocardiographic Outcomes

    Freedom from an increase in ventricular diameter

    Measured: at 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing percutaneous annuloplasty in people with Mitral Valve Regurgitation, run by Mitralign, Inc. at 8 sites in 4 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 10 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Oct 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 8 sites in Poland, Colombia, France, Paraguay. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Major Adverse Events (MAE) (time frame: within 30 days post procedure). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 17 Oct 2016; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
