Disclosure Statement Federico M Asch, MD No personal COI Institutional conflict MedStar Health has Institutional contracts for my work as Director of an Academic Core Lab: Abbott, Boston Scientific, Edwards, Medtronic, Neovasc, Livanova, GDS, Mitralign. COAPT (NCT01626079) is funded by Abbott
Background (i) • Secondary or functional mitral regurgitation (SMR) is present in >50% of patients with heart failure (HF), and is severe in ~10-15%. • Prognosis is poor when SMR is severe. • COAPT: Randomized, open-label, multicenter trial in patients with HF and moderate-to-severe (3+) or severe (4+) SMR who remained symptomatic despite maximally- tolerated GDMT.
Death or HF Hospitalization 100% MitraClip + GDMT HF Hospitalization (%) HR [95% CI] = All-cause Mortality or GDMT alone 80% 0.57 [0.45-0.71] P<0.001 67.9% 60% 45.7% 40% NNT (24 mo) = 20% 4.5 [95% CI 3.3, 7.2] 0% 0 3 6 9 12 15 18 21 24 Time After Randomization (Months) No. at Risk: MitraClip + GDMT 302 264 238 215 194 154 145 126 97 GDMT alone 312 244 205 174 153 117 90 75 55 Stone GW et al.

Background (ii) • SMR is a consequence of leaflet tethering and incomplete leaflet coaptation. • Evaluation of SMR is challenging, due to asymmetric leaflet anatomy and regurgitant orifice, eccentric jets and enlarged left cardiac chambers. • Expert panels have disagreed on how to define the severity of SMR, resulting in conflicting European and American guidelines.
Objectives COAPT Echo Sub-study 1. To describe the echocardiographic MR grading criteria utilized in COAPT for screening and post-MitraClip 2. To describe the echocardiographic characteristics of the COAPT population 3. To evaluate the serial echocardiographic outcomes 4. To identify baseline echocardiographic predictors of clinical outcomes (responders and non-responders to MitraClip)
Methods • 614 patients with HF and moderate to severe (3+) or severe (4+) secondary MR • Randomized 1:1 to maximally-tolerated GDMT + MitraClip or GDMT alone. • Transthoracic echocardiograms (TTE) at baseline, 1, 6, 12, 18, 24 months (to continue to year 5) • All echo analysis by an independent echo core lab, adapted from American guidelines (ASE, ACC)
Key Echo Inclusion Criteria 1. LVEF 20% - 50% and LVESD ≤70 mm (ischemic or non - ischemic) 2. SMR amenable for MitraClip treatment 3. Moderate-to-severe (3+) or severe (4+) SMR confirmed by an independent echo core laboratory prior to enrollment
