RESUMO
AIM: The RESHAPE-HF2 trial is designed to assess the efficacy and safety of the MitraClip device system for the treatment of clinically important functional mitral regurgitation (FMR) in patients with heart failure (HF). This report describes the baseline characteristics of patients enrolled in the RESHAPE-HF2 trial compared to those enrolled in the COAPT and MITRA-FR trials. METHODS AND RESULTS: The RESHAPE-HF2 study is an investigator-initiated, prospective, randomized, multicentre trial including patients with symptomatic HF, a left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) between 20% and 50% with moderate-to-severe or severe FMR, for whom isolated mitral valve surgery was not recommended. Patients were randomized 1:1 to a strategy of delivering or withholding MitraClip. Of 506 patients randomized, the mean age of the patients was 70 ± 10 years, and 99 of them (20%) were women. The median EuroSCORE II was 5.3 (2.8-9.0) and median plasma N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) was 2745 (1407-5385) pg/ml. Most patients were prescribed beta-blockers (96%), diuretics (96%), angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors/angiotensin receptor blockers/angiotensin receptor-neprilysin inhibitors (82%) and mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (82%). The use of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors was rare (7%). Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) devices had been previously implanted in 29% of patients. Mean LVEF, left ventricular end-diastolic volume and effective regurgitant orifice area (EROA) were 31 ± 8%, 211 ± 76 ml and 0.25 ± 0.08 cm2, respectively, whereas 44% of patients had mitral regurgitation severity of grade 4+. Compared to patients enrolled in COAPT and MITRA-FR, those enrolled in RESHAPE-HF2 were less likely to have mitral regurgitation grade 4+ and, on average, HAD lower EROA, and plasma NT-proBNP and higher estimated glomerular filtration rate, but otherwise had similar age, comorbidities, CRT therapy and LVEF. CONCLUSION: Patients enrolled in RESHAPE-HF2 represent a third distinct population where MitraClip was tested in, that is one mainly comprising of patients with moderate-to-severe FMR instead of only severe FMR, as enrolled in the COAPT and MITRA-FR trials. The results of RESHAPE-HF2 will provide crucial insights regarding broader application of the transcatheter edge-to-edge repair procedure in clinical practice.

AIMS: Acute mitral regurgitation (MR) in the setting of myocardial infarction (MI) may be the result of papillary muscle rupture (PMR). This condition is associated with high morbidity and mortality. We aim to evaluate the feasibility of transcatheter edge-to-edge mitral valve repair (TEER) in this acute setting. METHODS AND RESULTS: We analysed data from the International Registry of MitraClip in Acute Mitral Regurgitation following acute Myocardial Infarction (IREMMI) of 30 centres in Europe, North America, and the middle east. We included patients with post-MI PMR treated with TEER as a salvage procedure, and we evaluated immediate and 30-day outcomes. Twenty-three patients were included in this analysis (9 patients suffered complete papillary muscle rupture, 9 partial and 5 chordal rupture). The patients' mean age was 68 ± 14 years. Patients were at high surgical risk with median EuroSCORE II 27% (IQR 16, 28) and 20 out of 23 (87% were in cardiogenic shock). All patients were treated with vasopressors, and 17 out of 23 patients required mechanical support. TEER procedure was performed on the median 6 days after the index MI date IQR (3, 11). Procedural success was achieved in 87% of patients. The grade of MR was significantly decreased after the procedure. MR reduction to 0 or 1 + was achieved in 13 patients (57%), to 2 + in 7 patients (30%), P < 0.01. V-Wave was reduced from 49 ± 8 mmHg to 26 ± 10 mmHg post-procedure, P < 0.01. Sixteen out of 23 patients (70%) were discharged from hospital and 5 of them required reintervention with surgical mitral valve replacement. No additional death at 1 year was documented. CONCLUSIONS: TEER is a feasible therapy in critically ill patients with PMR due to a recent MI. TEER may have a role as salvage treatment or bridge to surgery in this population.

Background: Mitral regurgitation (MR) in the context of left ventricular systolic dysfunction is often designated as functional, with emphasis on the underlying cardiomyopathy leading to malcoaptation of the 'otherwise normal valve'. Case summary: A 63-year-old male with ischaemic cardiomyopathy (left ventricular ejection fraction 20%) presented with intractable heart failure in need of inotropic support and could not be stepped down from an ICU hospital setting. Functional MR, graded as moderate on transthoracic echocardiography, was initially not considered as pertinent to the clinical condition and options discussed included initiation of dialysis for volume management, chronic inotropic support, and palliative measures. However, a re-examination of the mitral valve by transoesophageal echo revealed severe regurgitation from annular dilatation and restricted mobility during systole. Transcatheter edge to edge repair utilizing the PASCAL device resulted in marked reduction of MR followed by an abrupt clinical improvement, weaning off inotropes and discharge home 4 days later. At four-year follow-up, the patient is stable on optimal heart failure therapy. Discussion: For many patients with heart failure and underlying cardiomyopathy, the presence of significant functional MR, instead of a 'bystander' disease, actually becomes the dominant driver of symptoms and compounds the low cardiac output state. In these patients, the term 'functional' MR becomes a misnomer, as in fact the so called 'otherwise normal' mitral valve is actually a severely dysfunctional valve with a wide malcoaptation zone. Transcatheter edge to edge repair is an effective bailout procedure for patients with low cardiac output and disproportionate severe functional MR.
