About this trial
This study will establish the safety and effectiveness of the SAPIEN M3 System in subjects with symptomatic, at least 3+ mitral regurgitation (MR) for whom commercially available surgical or transcatheter treatment options are deemed unsuitable.
Following completion of enrollment, subjects will be eligible for enrollment in the continued access phase of the trial.
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers
18 years of age or older
MR ≥ 3+
NYHA functional class ≥ II
Per the Heart Team, commercially available surgical or transcatheter treatment options are deemed unsuitable due to clinical, anatomic or technical considerations.
Disqualifiers
Mitral/cardiac anatomy that would preclude appropriate delivery and deployment of the SAPIEN M3 dock or valve
Inappropriate anatomy for femoral introduction and delivery of the SAPIEN M3 dock and valve
Presence of any device that will contact or interfere with the SAPIEN M3 System during delivery or after implantation
Left ventricular ejection fraction <25%
Trial design
Single group
Treatments tested in this trial
SAPIEN M3 valve and dock
DeviceDuring the procedure a SAPIEN M3 dock and a SAPIEN M3 valve will be implanted via transseptal approach.

Secondary outcomes
Improvement in NYHA functional class compared to baseline
New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional classification of heart failure is based on how much a patient is limited during physical activity. The rating ranges from I-IV. I = no limitations of physical activity; II = slight limitations of physical activity, ordinary physical activity results in fatigue, palpitation, shortness of breath; III = marked limitations of physical activity, less than ordinary activity causes fatigue, palpitation, or shortness of breath; IV = unable to carry on any physical activity without discomfort, symptoms of heart failure at rest.
Improvement in KCCQ Overall Score compared to baseline
The Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire (KCCQ) is a 23-item, self-administered instrument that quantifies physical function, symptoms (frequency, severity and recent change), social function, self-efficacy and knowledge, and quality of life. An overall summary score can be derived from the physical function, symptom (frequency and severity), social function and quality of life domains. Scores are transformed to a range of 0-100, in which higher scores reflect better health status.
