We’re tracking 18 recruiting aortic valve disease studies with a site in Michigan — including Phase 2 and Phase 2/Phase 3 studies, each written for real people, not researchers.
Recruiting studies in Michigan
- NCT05172973Recruiting
New valve procedure for failing aortic bioprosthetic valves
This trial studies whether a new transcatheter aortic valve (SAPIEN X4) is safe and works well in people whose previously implanted aortic valve is now failing. It may help reduce valve symptoms in higher-surgery-risk patients who are not good candidates for open-heart valve replacement.
Detroit, MichiganAges Any age - NCT03003299Recruiting
Valve replacement for failing aortic bioprosthetic valves
This trial studies a new “valve-in-valve” procedure to treat a failing aortic bioprosthetic valve. It may help people improve blood flow through the heart valve and reduce valve-related problems.
Royal Oak, MichiganAges Any age - NCT04754217Recruiting
Follow-up study after valve graft replacement
This study looks at outcomes after certain heart valve surgeries using a valved graft. It may help doctors understand how well these grafts work over time in people who have had valve replacement surgery.
Ann Arbor, MichiganAges 18 years+ - NCT06455787Recruiting
J-Valve study for leaky aortic valve patients
This study tests a new, less invasive device called J-Valve for people with severe aortic regurgitation (a leaky aortic valve). It is placed through a tube in the leg artery, avoiding open-heart surgery, and may help those who are at high risk for surgery.
Detroit, MichiganAges 18 years+ - NCT06608823Recruiting
Comparing surgery vs. the Trilogy valve for aortic regurgitation
This trial compares a new less-invasive valve replacement (Trilogy TAVR) with standard open-heart surgery for people with significant aortic regurgitation. It aims to see which treatment works better for patients who are eligible for both procedures.
Detroit, MichiganAges Any age - NCT03142152Recruiting
Mitral valve implant for heart failure with leaky mitral valve
This trial tests whether a device called the Carillon Mitral Contour System can help people with heart failure caused by a mild-to-moderate leaky mitral valve. You’d be compared against a control group, and the goal is to improve heart failure symptoms and outcomes.
Saginaw, MichiganAges 18 years+ - NCT05932615Enrolling by invitation
Testing a new transcatheter valve for aortic valve narrowing
This trial studies how safe and effective the NAVITOR valve is for treating narrowed aortic valves placed through a catheter (no open-heart surgery). It may be an option if you’re at intermediate-to-low surgical risk and meet heart ultrasound/CT measurements.
Kalamazoo, MichiganAges 18 years+ - NCT04634240Recruiting
Staged heart bypass plus TAVR versus TAVR alone
This study compares doing a staged coronary bypass (revascularization) along with a valve procedure (TAVR) versus doing TAVR and medical treatment alone. It aims to see which approach better helps people with both aortic valve narrowing and coronary artery disease.
Saginaw, MichiganAges Any age - NCT02306200Recruiting
A study to improve heart and aorta health
This trial looks at ways to improve cardiovascular (heart and blood vessel) health, especially conditions that affect the aorta, such as aneurysms, or vascular problems that may run in families. If you have an aortic-related or other cardiovascular diagnosis (or you’re a healthy comparison participant), you may be invited to take part in this health-improvement program.
Ann Arbor, MichiganAges Any age - NCT06689839Recruiting
Testing a new filter to prevent stroke during heart valve replacement
This trial tests a new filter device designed to catch debris that might travel to the brain during a minimally invasive aortic valve replacement (TAVR). The goal is to see if it can help reduce the risk of stroke.
Detroit, MichiganAges 50 years+ - NCT01756222Recruiting
Bicuspid aortic valve registry for adults
This study is a registry that collects health information from adults with bicuspid aortic valve disease. It may help doctors better understand outcomes and guide future care for patients and families affected by this condition.
Ann Arbor, MichiganAges 18 years+ - NCT07001800RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Slowing aortic valve disease with ataciguat
This trial tests a new pill, ataciguat, to slow down the progression of moderate calcific aortic valve stenosis (a condition where your aortic valve stiffens). If you have moderate valve narrowing and meet the other criteria, participation could help find a way to delay needing surgery.
Royal Oak, MichiganAges 50 years+ - NCT06027788Recruiting
Embolic protection during heart valve surgery
This trial tests a device that may help protect your brain from small particles during heart valve surgery. It is for people 60 and older having certain types of valve replacement or repair.
Ann Arbor, MichiganAges 60 years+ - NCT05646381RecruitingPhase 2
Drug study to slow hardening of aortic valve disease
This Phase 2 trial tests pelacarsen (TQJ230), a medication that lowers a blood fat called lipoprotein(a), to see if it slows progression of calcific aortic valve stenosis. It may help people whose valve narrowing is starting to become more severe, especially when their lipoprotein(a) level is high.
Royal Oak, MichiganAges 50–80 - NCT04097145Recruiting
Heart valve repair for severe leaking tricuspid valve
This trial tests a catheter-based procedure (done through the blood vessels) to repair a severely leaky tricuspid valve. It may help people with symptoms or past hospitalizations from tricuspid valve leakage who are higher-risk for standard surgery.
Royal Oak, MichiganAges 18 years+ - NCT05933083Recruiting
In-person vs telehealth heart rehab comparison study
This study compares whether heart rehabilitation done in person or by telehealth (video/phone) works as well for people with certain heart conditions. It may help you and others choose the safest and most effective way to receive cardiac rehab.
Ann Arbor, MichiganAges 18 years+ - NCT07309029Recruiting
ECMO support during high-risk TAVR heart valve procedure
This trial tests whether placing patients on ECMO (a heart-lung support machine) before a high-risk TAVR valve replacement can improve safety and outcomes. It is for people who are at very high risk due to low blood pressure, severe heart or lung problems, or complex valve anatomy.
Detroit, MichiganAges 18–100 - NCT05172960Recruiting
Study of a new heart valve for severe aortic stenosis
This trial tests a new version of a heart valve (SAPIEN X4) placed without open-heart surgery. It's for people with severe aortic stenosis who have symptoms like shortness of breath or chest pain.

What taking part in a aortic valve disease study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.

Common questions
- Are there aortic valve disease clinical trials in Michigan?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 18 recruiting aortic valve disease studies with a site in Michigan, each rewritten in plain language so you can see what it's testing and who it's for.
- How do I find out if I qualify for a aortic valve disease study in Michigan?
- Each study lists its eligibility rules — age, diagnosis, prior treatments. On every trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Do I have to live in Michigan to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in Michigan, but eligibility is about your health, not your address — some people travel to take part, and a few studies reimburse travel. The study team can tell you what's required.
- Does it cost anything to join a aortic valve disease trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what's covered before you decide.
