Summary

This trial is testing a new device to repair mitral valves without needing cardiopulmonary bypass. The goal is to see if it is safe and effective compared to the standard method.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with moderate to severe degenerative mitral valve regurgitation who are suitable for standard surgical repair. Candidates should have specific conditions of the heart's mitral valve, like anterior leaflet prolapse, and must not have had prior mitral surgery or other cardiac procedures within the last 3 months.
What is being tested?
The study compares a new device called NeoChord DS1000, which repairs the heart's mitral valve without needing to stop the heart and use a bypass machine, against traditional open-heart surgery that does require stopping the heart and using bypass.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include complications related to heart surgery such as infection, bleeding, irregular heartbeat patterns, or issues from using cardiopulmonary bypass in traditional repair.
