PG - 411-421 LID - 10.1002/ejhf.2770 [doi] AB - AIMS: Mitral valve transcatheter edge-to-edge repair is a guideline-recommended treatment option for patients with secondary mitral regurgitation (SMR). The purpose of this analysis was to report contemporary real-world outcomes in SMR patients treated with third-generation MitraClip systems. METHODS AND RESULTS: EXPAND is a prospective, multicentre, international, single-arm study with 1041 patients treated for mitral regurgitation (MR) with MitraClip NTR/XTR, with 30-day and 1-year follow-up. All echocardiograms were analysed by an independent echocardiographic core lab. Study outcomes included procedural outcomes, durability of MR reduction, and major adverse events including all-cause mortality and heart failure hospitalizations (HFH). A subgroup of 413 symptomatic patients (age 74.7 +/- 10.1 years, 58% male) with severe SMR were included. MR reduction to MR /= 2 +; p < 0.0001). New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional class improved significantly from baseline (NYHA
