Next Generation Therapies: Aortic, Mitral and Beyond

Challenges to Success in Low-Risk Patients Procedural Considerations Have Greater Relevance Continue to reduce paravalvular leak Continue to reduce vascular complications Continue to reduce incidence of heart block Continue to reduce incidence of stroke Technological Considerations Require Broader Consideration More clinical experience to observe valve durability Valve-in-valve potential Access to coronary arteries

Next Generation Therapies: Aortic, Mitral and Beyond
Mitral Valve Therapies European Survey on Valvular Heart Disease 92 Centers, 25 countries over 4 months Those not offered surgery were older, with more co-morbidities (diabetes, atheresclerotic vascular disease, lung disease), heart failure admissions, and overall comorbidity indices. At the time of intervention, comorbidities* may drive outcome more strongly than the valve disease itself.
Percutaneous Strategies: MitraClip Prolapse Restricted Motion EVEREST I and II Surgical Candidates COAPT Symptomatic or Asymptomatic RESHAPE-HF MVR Indication 10 Feldman and Young 2014, JACC
Percutaneous Strategies: MitraClip Surgical candidates (n = 279), with operative indication. 2:1 MitraClip:Surgery Compared to surgery, MitraClip had: Fewer adverse events (30-d) Comparable mortality Comparable symptomatic improvement Greater residual MR Higher rate of subsequent MV surgery (~20%) The goal of any therapy is simple to live longer or better. Patients with Moderate-Severe Mitral Regurgitation that are Poor Surgical Candidates 11 Feldman et al. 2011, 2015 NEJM; Feldman and Young 2014, JACC
MitraClip EVEREST II Trial Primary Endpoint* Freedom from Reoperation After 6-mo Compared to surgery, MitraClip had: Fewer adverse events (30-d) Comparable mortality Comparable symptomatic improvement Greater residual MR Higher rate of subsequent MV surgery (~20%) If procedural outcomes and reduction in residual MR can be improved, might a percutaneous approach be preferred? *Death, mitral valve surgery, 3-4+ mitral regurgitation 12 Feldman et al. 2015 NEJM
MitraClip FDA Approved The MitraClip Delivery System is indicated for the percutaneous reduction of significant symptomatic mitral regurgitation due to primary abnormality of the mitral apparatus (degenerative MR) in patients who are at prohibitive risk for mitral valve surgery. What about Functional Mitral Regurgitation? COAPT Trial 13
Direct Mitral Annuloplasty Mitralign (Mitralign Inc) RFA-assisted puncture Place pledgets, draw together Accucinch (Guided Delivery Systems) Anchors below MV Nitinol wire to cinch Cardioband (Edwards) Above MV Sequential Anchors Feldman and Young 2014, JACC
Percutaneous Mitral Replacement Structural Considerations Varied pathophysiological states Annulus size, 3-dimensional anatomy Subvalvular apparatus Ventricular size, geometry, function Dynamic pressure environment Technical Considerations Securely fix prosthesis Avoid left ventricular outflow tract Avoid paravalvular leak Manage potential areas of stasis Implantation route and safety
SAPIEN Approved for Mitral Valve in Valve Clinical need, innovation Approved based on registry Requires existing bioprosthesis 16

Next Generation Therapies: Aortic, Mitral and Beyond
Is the Tricuspid Valve Relevant? Arbulu et al., 1991 J Thorac Cardiovasc Surg 53 patients (IVDA) with right sided endocarditis Valvulectomy without replacement 16 (30%) died, 6 within 45 days 6 (11%) later with valve replacement due to refractory right sided heart failure Some tolerate, so do not 20
Tricuspid Regurgitation and Mortality 5,233 patients, TTE at VAMC, 4-year follow up Severe TR: 50% survival at ~2-yrs (47 days) Independent of PA pressures, LV or RV function 21 Nath et al., JACC 2004

Conclusions Percutaneous therapies for aortic, mitral and tricuspid valve disease are rapidly developing Heterogeneous population, different expectations Options for transcatheter therapies exist for nearly all patients with valvular heart disease Collaborative and multidisciplinary decision making can lead to the right therapies, for the right patient
