About this study
Official title: Noninferiority Trial of MitraClip Implantation Strategies: 1 Clip vs. 2 Clips in Patients With Functional Mitral Regurgitation (One-Plus-One)
Implantation of the MitraClip has become the most frequently used percutaneous technique to treat significant (grade 3+ or 4+) mitral regurgitation (MR) in elderly patients deemed inoperable or at high surgical risk. In Europe, about two-thirds of patients treated with the MitraClip suffer from MR of functional origin secondary to ischemic or dilated cardiomyopathy. At present, there is debate among operators on whether stabilizing/supporting a single adequately implanted clip with a second clip is beneficial for patients with functional MR.

In Europe, about two-thirds of patients treated with the MitraClip suffer from MR of functional origin secondary to ischemic or dilated cardiomyopathy. At present, there is debate among operators on whether stabilizing/supporting a single adequately implanted clip with a second clip is beneficial for patients with functional MR.
Purpose To demonstrate the noninferiority of a 1-clip strategy vs. a 2-clip strategy of MitraClip implantation, when the second clip in the 2-clip study arm is implanted for stabilizing/supporting purposes.

quality of life
Assessment of the Minnesota Living With Heart Failure Questionnaire (MLHFQ) quality-of-life score. The questionnaire consists of 21 quality-of-life questions to be answered by the patient on a grading scale of 0 (best) to 5 (worst). Thus, the overall MLHFQ score ranges from 0 to 105.

Clinical summary
The research question as the sponsor registered it. This describes what the study plans to test, not what it found.
Implantation of the MitraClip has become the most frequently used percutaneous technique to treat significant (grade 3+ or 4+) mitral regurgitation (MR) in elderly patients deemed inoperable or at high surgical risk. In Europe, about two-thirds of patients treated with the MitraClip suffer from MR of functional origin secondary to ischemic or dilated cardiomyopathy. At present, there is debate among operators on whether stabilizing/supporting a single adequately implanted clip with a second clip is beneficial for patients with functional MR.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A study testing MitraClip implantation in people with Mitral Regurgitation Functional, run by Asklepios proresearch.
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 3 inclusion and 1 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Jan 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
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?
The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.
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?
Evaluation of number of participants who died death within one year (time frame: 1 year). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03503851, which also lists 9 linked publications.
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 3 Jan 2019; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
