Brief summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and initial performance of the Neovasc Tiara Mitral Transcatheter Heart Valve with the Tiara Transapical Delivery System.

Detailed description

This is an international, multicenter, single arm, prospective, Early Feasibility Clinical Study to evaluate the safety and performance of the Neovasc Tiara Mitral Valve System in subjects with symptomatic severe mitral regurgitation requiring mitral valve replacement who are at high risk for open chest surgery. A maximum of 30 subjects will be implanted in this study at a maximum of 10 sites. A maximum of 15 subjects will be implanted in the United States. Subjects satisfying the inclusion criteria and exclusion criteria will be enrolled to receive the Neovasc Tiara Mitral Transcatheter Heart Valve with the Tiara Delivery System via a transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR) procedure.

Performance - KCCQ30 days, 90 days, 180 days and annually for five yearsClinical performance as measured by Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire (KCCQ). Quality-of-life questionnaire for patients with heart failure. Scores range from 0 to 100: 0-24 is very poor to poor, 25-49 is poor to fair, 50-74 is fair to good, 75-100 is good to excellent.
Performance - NYHA30 days, 90 days, 180 days and annually for five yearsClinical performance as measured by New York Heart Association (NYHA) Classification of heart failure. Severity is classified in four classes (I-IV). Class I = mild, no limitation of physical activity. Class II = mild with slight limitation of physical activity. Class III = moderate with marked limitation of physical activity. Class IV = severe with inability to carry out any physical activity without discomfort.
Performance - 6MWT30 days, 90 days, 180 days and annually for five yearsClinical performance as measured by 6-Minute Walk Test (6MWT) measures the maximum distance a person can walk along a flat, straight 30 meter course in 6 minutes.
