Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (4)
Number of Participants With Major Adverse Events (MAE)
Composite of major adverse events (MAE) defined as cardiovascular mortality, stroke, myocardial infarction, new need for renal replacement therapy, severe bleeding and re-intervention for study device related complications at 30 days post-implant. MAEs during the first year of post-implant follow-up were adjudicated by a Clinical Events Committee of independent heart specialist physicians.
30 days
Device Success
Device is deployed as intended and the delivery system is successfully retrieved as intended at the time of the patient's exit from the cardiac catheterization laboratory.
Exit from the cardiac catheterization laboratory
Number of Participants With Procedural Success
Device success with evidence of mitral regurgitation reduction to ≤ 2+ (mild-moderate) at discharge and without the need for a surgical or percutaneous intervention prior to hospital discharge. Mitral regurgitation was assessed by independent echocardiographic core laboratory review of transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) imaging.
through discharge
Clinical Success
Procedural success with evidence of MR reduction to ≤ 2+ (mild-moderate) and without MAEs at 30 days. Mitral regurgitation was assessed by independent echocardiographic core laboratory review of transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) imaging.

Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Signed and dated IRB/ethics committee approved study consent form prior to study related procedures
- Eighteen (18) years of age or older
- New York Heart Association (NYHA) Functional Class II-IVa heart failure despite optimal medical therapy
- Candidacy for surgical mitral valve repair or replacement determined by Heart Team evaluation
- Clinically significant mitral regurgitation (moderate-to-severe or severe mitral regurgitation) confirmed by transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) and transthoracic echocardiography (TTE).
- The primary regurgitant jet is non-commissural. If a secondary jet exists, it must be considered clinically insignificant.
- Mitral valve area (MVA) ≥ 4.0 cm² as measured by planimetry. If MVA by planimetry is not measurable, pressure half-time measurement is acceptable.
You may not qualify if:
- Patient in whom a TEE is contraindicated or screening TEE is unsuccessful
- Leaflet anatomy which may preclude PASCAL device implantation, proper device positioning on the leaflets, or sufficient reduction in mitral regurgitation.
- Mitral valve area (MVA) \< 4.0 cm² as measured by planimetry (If MVA by planimetry is not measurable, PHT measurement is acceptable)
- Echocardiographic evidence of intracardiac mass, thrombus, or vegetation
- Physical evidence of right sided congestive heart failure and echocardiographic evidence of severe right ventricular dysfunction
- Concurrent medical condition with a life expectancy of less than 12 months in the judgment of the Investigator
- Patient is currently participating or has participated in another investigational drug or device clinical study where the primary study endpoint was not reached at time of enrollment
- Patient is under guardianship
