- Low serum albumin levels are associated with poor prognosis in numerous chronic disease states but the relationship between albumin and outcomes in patients with heart failure (HF) and secondary mitral regurgitation (SMR) has not been described.The randomized COAPT trial evaluated the safety and effectiveness of transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) with the MitraClip plus guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT) versus GDMT alone in patients with symptomatic HF and moderate-to-severe or severe SMR. Baseline serum albumin levels were measured at enrollment. Among 614 patients enrolled in COAPT, 559 (91.0%) had available baseline serum albumin levels (median 4.0 g/dL, IQR 3.7-4.2 g/dL). Patients with albumin <4.0 g/dL compared with ≥4.0 g/dL were older and more likely to have ischemic cardiomyopathy and a hospitalization within the year prior to enrollment. After multivariable adjustment, patients with albumin <4.0 g/dL had higher 4-year rates of all-cause death (63.7% vs. 47.6%; adjusted HR 1.34, 95% CI 1.02-1.74; p=0.032), but there were no significant differences in heart failure hospitalizations (HFH) or all-cause hospitalizations according to baseline serum albumin level. The relative effectiveness of TEER plus GDMT versus GDMT alone was consistent in patients with low and high albumin levels (Pinteraction = 0.19 and 0.35 for death and HFH, respectively).Low baseline serum albumin levels were independently associated with reduced 4-year survival in patients with HF and severe SMR enrolled in the COAPT trial, but not with HFH. Patients treated with TEER derived similarly robust reductions in both death and HFH regardless of baseline albumin level. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.

- Interest in the pathophysiology, etiology, management, and outcomes of patients with tricuspid regurgitation (TR) has grown in the wake of multiple natural history studies showing progressively worse outcomes associated with increasing TR severity, even after adjusting for multiple comorbidities. Historically, isolated tricuspid valve surgery has been associated with high in-hospital mortality rates, leading to the development of transcatheter treatment options. The aim of this first Tricuspid Valve Academic Research Consortium document is to standardize definitions of disease etiology and severity, as well as endpoints for trials that aim to address the gaps in our knowledge related to identification and management of patients with TR. Standardizing endpoints for trials should provide consistency and enable meaningful comparisons between clinical trials. A second Tricuspid Valve Academic Research Consortium document will focus on further defining trial endpoints and will discuss trial design options.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Background The incidence and implications of worsening renal function (WRF) after mitral valve transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) in patients with heart failure (HF) are unknown. Therefore, the aim of this study was to determine the proportion of patients with HF and secondary mitral regurgitation who develop persistent WRF within 30 days following TEER, and whether this development portends a worse prognosis. Methods and Results In the COAPT (Cardiovascular Outcomes Assessment of the MitraClip Percutaneous Therapy for Heart Failure Patients With Functional Mitral Regurgitation) trial, 614 patients with HF and severe secondary mitral regurgitation were randomized to TEER with the MitraClip plus guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT) versus GDMT alone. WRF was defined as serum creatinine increase ≥1.5× or ≥0.3 mg/dL from baseline persisting to day 30 or requiring renal replacement therapy. All-cause death and HF hospitalization rates between 30 days and 2 years were compared in patients with and without WRF. WRF at 30 days was present in 11.3% of patients (9.7% in the TEER plus GDMT group and 13.1% in the GDMT alone group; P=0.23). WRF was associated with all-cause death (hazard ratio [HR], 1.98 [95% CI, 1.3-3.03]; P=0.001) but not HF hospitalization (HR, 1.47 [ 95% CI, 0.97-2.24]; P=0.07) between 30 days and 2 years. Compared with GDMT alone, TEER reduced both death and HF hospitalization consistently in patients with and without WRF (Pinteraction=0.53 and 0.57, respectively). Conclusions Among patients with HF and severe secondary mitral regurgitation, the incidence of WRF at 30 days was not increased after TEER compared with GDMT alone. WRF was associated with greater 2-year mortality but did not attenuate the treatment benefits of TEER in reducing death and HF hospitalization compared with GDMT alone.

- This study sought to assess the sex-specific outcomes in patients with heart failure (HF) with 3+ and 4+ secondary mitral regurgitation (SMR) treated with transcatheter mitral valve repair (TMVr) plus guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT) versus GDMT alone in the COAPT trial.The impact of sex in patients with HF and severe SMR treated with TMVr with the MitraClip compared with GDMT alone is unknown.Patients were randomized 1:1 to TMVr versus GDMT alone. Two-year outcomes were examined according to sex.Among 614 patients, 221 (36.0%) were women. Women were younger than men and had fewer comorbidities, but reduced quality of life and functional capacity at baseline. In a joint frailty model accounting for the competing risk of death, the 2-year cumulative incidence of the primary endpoint of all HF hospitalizations (HFH) was higher in men compared with women treated with GDMT alone. However, the relative reduction in HFHs with TMVr was greater in men (HR: 0.43; 95% CI: 0.34-0.54) than women (HR: 0.78; 95% CI: 0.57-1.05) (Pinteraction = 0.002). A significant interaction between TMVr versus GDMT alone treatment and time was present for all HFHs in women (HR: 0.57; 95% CI: 0.39-0.84, and HR: 1.39; 95% CI: 0.83-2.33 between 0-1 year and 1-2 years after randomization, respectively, Pinteraction = 0.007) but not in men (HR: 0.48; 95% CI: 0.36-0.64, and HR: 0.33; 95% CI: 0.21-0.51; Pinteraction = 0.16). Female sex was independently associated with a lower adjusted risk of death at 2 years (HR: 0.64; 95% CI: 0.46-0.90; P = 0.011). TMVr consistently reduced 2-year mortality compared with GDMT alone, irrespective of sex (Pinteraction = 0.99).In the COAPT trial, TMVr with the MitraClip resulted in improved clinical outcomes compared with GDMT alone, irrespective of sex. However, the impact of TMVr in reducing HFH was less pronounced in women compared with men beyond the first year after treatment.

- Background Left ventricular (LV) global longitudinal strain (GLS) provides incremental prognostic information over LV ejection fraction in patients with heart failure (HF) and secondary mitral regurgitation. We examined the prognostic impact of LV GLS improvement in this population. Methods and Results The COAPT (Cardiovascular Outcomes Assessment of the MitraClip Percutaneous Therapy for Heart Failure Patients With Functional Mitral Regurgitation) trial randomized symptomatic patients with HF with severe (3+/4+) mitral regurgitation to transcatheter edge-to-edge repair with the MitraClip device plus maximally tolerated guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT) versus GDMT alone. LV GLS was measured at baseline and 6-month follow-up. The relationship between the improvement in LV GLS from baseline to 6 months and the composite of all-cause death or HF hospitalization between 6- and 24-month follow-up were assessed. Among 383 patients, 174 (45.4%) had improved LV GLS at 6-month follow-up (83/195 [42.6%] with transcatheter edge-to-edge repair+GDMT and 91/188 [48.4%] with GDMT alone; P=0.25). Improvement in LV GLS was strongly associated with reduced death or HF hospitalization between 6 and 24 months (P<0.009), with similar risk reduction in both treatment arms (Pinteraction=0.40). By multivariable analysis, LV GLS improvement at 6 months was independently associated with a lower risk of death or HF hospitalization (hazard ratio [HR], 0.55 [95% CI, 0.36-0.83]; P=0.009), death (HR, 0.48 [95% CI, 0.29-0.81]; P=0.006), and HF hospitalization (HR, 0.50 [95% CI, 0.31-0.81]; P=0.005) between 6 and 24 months. Conclusions Among patients with HF and severe mitral regurgitation in the COAPT trial, improvement in LV GLS at 6-month follow-up was associated with improved outcomes after both transcatheter edge-to-edge repair and GDMT alone between 6 and 24 months.

- There are limited data on the predictors of death or heart failure hospitalization (HFH) in patients with heart failure (HF) with functional mitral regurgitation (FMR).The aim of this study was to develop a predictive risk score using the COAPT (Cardiovascular Outcomes Assessment of the MitraClip Percutaneous Therapy for Heart Failure Patients With Functional Mitral Regurgitation) trial database.In COAPT, 614 symptomatic patients with HF and moderate to severe or severe FMR were randomized to MitraClip implantation plus guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT) or GDMT alone. A risk score for the 2-year rate of death or HFH was generated from Cox proportional hazards models. The predictive value of the model was assessed using the area under the curve of receiver-operating characteristic plots. Kaplan-Meier curves were generated to estimate the proportion of patients experiencing death or HFH across quartiles of risk.During 2-year follow-up, 201 patients (64.4%) in the GDMT-alone group and 133 patients (44.0%) in the MitraClip group experienced death or HFH (P < 0.001). A risk score containing 4 clinical variables (New York Heart Association functional class, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, atrial fibrillation or flutter, and chronic kidney disease) and 4 echocardiographic variables (left ventricular ejection fraction, left ventricular end-systolic dimension, right ventricular systolic pressure, and tricuspid regurgitation) in addition to MitraClip treatment was generated. The area under the curve of the risk score model was 0.74, and excellent calibration was present. The relative benefit of MitraClip therapy in reducing the 2-year hazard of death or HFH was consistent across the range of baseline risk.A simple risk score of clinical, echocardiographic, and treatment variables may provide useful prognostication in patients with HF and severe FMR.

- Background Peripheral artery disease (PAD) and heart failure (HF) often coexist. Whether PAD influences outcomes of transcatheter mitral valve repair (TMVr) in patients with HF and severe secondary mitral regurgitation is unknown. The objectives are to assess the impact of PAD on outcomes of TMVr plus guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT) versus GDMT alone in patients with HF and secondary mitral regurgitation. Methods and Results The COAPT trial (Cardiovascular Outcomes Assessment of the MitraClip Percutaneous Therapy for Heart Failure Patients with Functional Mitral Regurgitation) randomized patients with HF with ≥moderate-to-severe secondary mitral regurgitation to TMVr with MitraClip implant plus GDMT versus GDMT alone. We evaluated the relationship between PAD and 2-year outcomes in the COAPT trial and examined whether PAD modified the benefits of TMVr. Among 614 patients enrolled, 109 (17.8%) had PAD. By multivariable analysis, PAD was independently associated with 2-year mortality (adjusted hazard ratio [adjHR], 1.51 [95% CI, 1.07-2.15]) but not HF hospitalizations. Compared with GDMT alone, TMVr reduced the 2-year risk of death in patients without PAD (adjHR, 0.42 [95% CI, 0.30-0.60]) but not those with PAD (adjHR, 1.27 [95% CI, 0.72-2.27]; Pinteraction=0.001). In contrast, TMVr reduced HF hospitalizations consistently in patients with (adjHR, 0.65 [95% CI, 0.35-1.23]) and without (adjHR, 0.42 [95% CI, 0.31-0.57]) PAD (Pinteraction=0.22). Improvements in health status and exercise capacity at 2 years with TMVr compared with GDMT alone were similar in degree, irrespective of PAD status (Pinteraction=0.76 and 0.64, respectively). Conclusions In patients with HF and severe secondary mitral regurgitation, the reduced mortality with TMVr in the overall COAPT study population was not observed in the subgroup of patients with PAD. However, TMVr reduced HF hospitalizations and improved health status and exercise capacity consistently in patients with and without PAD.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The conceptual framework of proportionate versus disproportionate mitral regurgitation (MR) translates poorly to individual patients with heart failure (HF) and secondary MR. A novel index, the ratio of MR severity to left atrial volume (LAV), may identify patients with "disproportionate" MR and a higher risk of events. The objectives, therefore, were to investigate the prognostic impact of MR severity to LAV ratio on outcomes among HF patients with severe secondary MR randomized to transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) with the MitraClipTM device plus guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT) vs. GDMT alone in the COAPT trial.The ratio of preprocedural regurgitant volume (RVol) to LAV was calculated from baseline transthoracic echocardiograms. The primary endpoint was 2-year covariate-adjusted rate of HF hospitalization (HFH).Among 567 patients, the median RVol/LAV was 0.67 (IQR 0.48-0.91). In patients randomized to GDMT alone, lower RVol/LAV was independently associated with an increased 2-year risk of HFH (adjHR: 1.77; 95% CI: 1.20-2.63). RVol/LAV was a stronger predictor of adverse outcomes than RVol or LAV alone. Treatment with TEER plus GDMT compared with GDMT alone was associated with lower 2-year rates of HFH both in patients with low and high RVol/LAV (Pinteraction = 0.28). Baseline RVol/LAV ratio was unrelated to 2-year mortality, health status, or functional capacity in either treatment group.Low RVol/LAV ratio was an independent predictor of 2-year HFH in HF patients with severe MR treated with GDMT alone in the COAPT trial. TEER improved outcomes regardless of baseline RVol/LAV ratio.Trial Name: Cardiovascular Outcomes Assessment of the MitraClip Percutaneous Therapy for Heart Failure Patients With Functional Mitral Regurgitation (The COAPT Trial) (COAPT) ClinicalTrial.gov Identifier: NCT01626079 URL: https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT01626079.

- In the COAPT (Cardiovascular Outcomes Assessment of the MitraClip Percutaneous Therapy for Heart Failure Patients With Functional Mitral Regurgitation) trial, a central committee of heart failure (HF) specialists optimized guideline-directed medical therapies (GDMT) and documented medication and goal dose intolerances before patient enrollment.The authors sought to assess the rates, reasons, and predictors of GDMT intolerance in the COAPT trial.Baseline use, dose, and intolerances of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEIs) angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARBs), angiotensin receptor neprilysin inhibitors (ARNIs), beta-blockers, and mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (MRAs) were analyzed in patients with left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≤40%, in whom maximally tolerated doses of these agents as assessed by an independent HF specialist were required before enrollment.A total of 464 patients had LVEF ≤40% and complete medication information. At baseline, 38.8%, 39.4%, and 19.8% of patients tolerated 3, 2, and 1 GDMT classes, respectively (any dose); only 1.9% could not tolerate any GDMT. Beta-blockers were the most frequently tolerated GDMT (93.1%), followed by ACEIs/ARBs/ARNIs (68.5%), and then MRAs (55.0%). Intolerances differed by GDMT class, but hypotension and kidney dysfunction were most common. Goal doses were uncommonly achieved for beta-blockers (32.3%) and ACEIs/ARBs/ARNIs (10.2%) due to intolerances limiting titration. Only 2.2% of patients tolerated goal doses of all 3 GDMT classes.In a contemporary trial population with HF, severe mitral regurgitation, and systematic HF specialist-directed GDMT optimization, most patients had medical intolerances prohibiting 1 or more GDMT classes and achieving goal doses. The specific intolerances noted and methods used for GDMT optimization provide important lessons for the implementation of GDMT optimization in future clinical trials.
