arteries in a majority of humans. As a
result, pressure applied by any
prosthetic device in the coronary sinus
(such as tension on the annuloplasty
device) can compress the underlying
coronary artery and induce myocardial
ischemia or infarction. This invention
pertains to devices and methods that
avoid constricting coronary artery
branches during coronary sinus-based
annuloplasty. These devices and
methods protect coronary artery
branches from constriction during transsinus mitral annuloplasty. The device
protects a coronary vessel from
compression during mitral annuloplasty
by extending an annuloplasty element,
such as a tensioning device, at least
partially through the coronary sinus
over a coronary artery. The device is a
surgically sterile bridge configured for
placement within the coronary sinus at
a location where the coronary sinus
passes over a coronary artery, so that the
protection device provides a support for
a mitral annuloplasty element, such as
a compressive prosthesis, including a
tension element when it is placed under
tension. The protection device has an
arch of sufficient rigidity and
dimensions to support the tensioning
element over the coronary artery,
redistribute tension away from an
underlying coronary artery, and inhibit
application of pressure to the
underlying artery, for example when an
annuloplasty tension element is placed
under tension during mitral
annuloplasty. In particular, the
protective device can be a support
interposed in the coronary sinus
between the annuloplasty device and
the coronary artery. The device may be
substantially tubular so that the
tensioning element is contained within
the protective device and supported in
spaced relationship to the coronary
artery. An arch may be configured to
extend between a proximal end and a
distal end that are substantially
collinear with one another so that the
ends form stabilizing members such as
feet that retain the bridge in position
over the coronary artery.

Another embodiment of the cerclage
protection device is a combination with
a cerclage tension element that can be
used to facilitate transcatheter mitral
valve implantation. The transcatheter
strategy includes a ‘‘valve-in-ring’’
wherein a cerclage annuloplasty is first
performed. During the same session or
during a separate procedure, a
transcatheter mitral valve implantation
could be performed that would take
advantage of the cerclage annuloplasty
system to serve as a visual and a

mechanical ‘‘landing zone’’ for mitral
valve implantation. A cerclage
annuloplasty ring would allow outward
expansion of the mitral valve to achieve
fixation. However, without the cerclage
protection device in place, such a
strategy would cause compression of an
entrapped coronary artery. This new
embodiment of the protection device
protects coronary arteries not from
extrinsic compression but from ‘‘insideout’’ compression, thereby allowing
cerclage to be the first step for
transcatheter mitral valve implantation.
It also allows the latter to be employed
as second-stage adjunct or bailout for
inadequate cerclage mitral valve
annuoplasty.
The prospective exclusive license will
be royalty bearing and will comply with
the terms and conditions of 35 U.S.C.
209 and 37 CFR 404.7. The prospective
exclusive license may be granted unless,
within fifteen (15) days from the date of
this published notice, NIH receives
written evidence and argument that
establishes that the grant of the license
would not be consistent with the
requirements of 35 U.S.C. 209 and 37
CFR 404.7.
Properly filed competing applications
for a license filed in response to this
notice will be treated as objections to
the contemplated license. Comments
and objections submitted in response to
this notice will not be made available
for public inspection, and, to the extent
permitted by law, will not be released
under the Freedom of Information Act,

The goals of the program are to expose
these early career scientists to the peer

more competitive as applicants as well
as to enrich the existing pool of NIH
reviewers. Currently, online application
