To confirm the effectiveness and safety of the Dragonfly transcatheter mitral valve repair system for the treatment of chronic moderate to severe (3+) or severe (4+) functional mitral regurgitation (FMR) who remained clinically symptomatic after guideline-directed medical treatment.
This study is a prospective, multicenter, objective performance criteria design. Patients are chronic moderate to severe (3+) or severe (4+) functional mitral regurgitation (FMR) who remained clinically symptomatic after guideline-directed medical treatment. After signing an informed consent form, subjects are enrolled and treated with the DragonFly Transcatheter Mitral Valve Repair System. All subjects receive clinical follow-up immediately after procedure, before discharge, 30 days after procedure, 6 months after procedure, and 12 months after procedure. The primary outcome is defined as a composite measure include all-cause mortality and recurrent heart failure hospitalization at 12 months after procedure. The secondary outcomes include acute procedural success, acute device success, mitral regurgitation degree (MR≤2+), recurrent heart failure hospitalization, NYHA class I or II at 30 days, 6 months, and 12 months, and the improvement in 6 minutes walk test distance, left ventricular end-diastolic volume, quality of life change as assessed by the Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire (KCCQ) score from baseline at 12 months after procedure. The safety endpoints include major adverse events (MAEs) at 30 days and 12 months after procedure, and all-cause mortality, cardiac mortality at 30 days, 6 months, and 12 months after procedure. To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Valgen Medtech DragonFly Transcatheter Mitral Valve Repair System in the treatment of patients with chronic moderate to severe (3+) or severe (4+) functional mitral regurgitation (FMR) who remained clinically symptomatic after guideline-directed medical treatment, and to evaluate the product performance.

RECRUITINGNumber of patients with composite measures- All-cause death and recurrent HF hospitalizations.
A composite of all-cause death or recurrent heart failure (HF) hospitalizations.
Time frame: 12 months
Mitral regurgitation severity
Percentage of patients with mitral regurgitation of 2+ or less.
Time frame: 30 days, 6 months, 12 months
Recurrent heart failure (HF) hospitalizations
Number of patients with incidence of re-hospitalizations for heart failure after Dragonfly implantation.
Time frame: 30 days, 6 months, 12 months
NYHA Class
Number of patients with New York Heart Association (NYHA) Function Class I or II.
Time frame: 30 days, 6 months, and 12 months
Change in 6 minutes walk test distance
Improvement in 6 Minute Walk Test distance at 12 months over baseline.
Time frame: 12 months
Quality of life improvement
Improvement in quality of life (QoL) at 12 months over baseline, as measured by the Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire (KCCQ).
Time frame: 12 months
Left Ventricular End Diastolic Volume (LVEDV)
Left Ventricular End Diastolic Volume (LVEDV) as determined by the core echocardiography laboratory from a transthoracic echocardiogram (TTE).
Time frame: 12 months
Acute procedural success
This platform is for informational purposes only and does not constitute medical advice. Always consult a qualified healthcare professional.
Successful in Dragonfly implantation, and residual MR of 2+ or less at discharge. An echocardiography echocardiogram at 30 days can be accepted if the discharge image was not available or hard to interpret. A death before discharge or a re-operation of mitral valve prior to 30 days is defined as acute procedure failure.
Time frame: Immediately after procedure, Discharge: The day after the patient's exit from the cardiac catheterization laboratory
Acute device success
One or more Dragonfly devices are successfully delivered and released, edge-to-edge leaflet repair confirmed by echocardiogram, and successfully withdrawal of the delivery catheter.
Time frame: Immediately after procedure
