Aortic Valve Disease clinical trials in Texas
We’re tracking 16 recruiting aortic valve disease studies with a site in Texas — including Phase 2 and Phase 2/Phase 3 studies, each written for real people, not researchers.
Recruiting studies in Texas
- 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.
Houston, TexasAges 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.
Austin, TexasAges Any age - NCT05913908Recruiting
Valve procedure study for severe tricuspid leakage
This trial tests how well a new catheter-based valve system works for people with severe (or worse) tricuspid valve leaking who still have symptoms despite medicines. It aims to improve outcomes by treating the leaking valve without open-heart surgery, if your heart structure and overall health fit the study.
San Antonio, TexasAges 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.
Houston, TexasAges 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.
Plano, TexasAges 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.
Houston, TexasAges 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.
Houston, TexasAges 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.
Plano, TexasAges Any age - NCT05862558Recruiting
Lithotripsy to open blocked, calcified artery for TAVR
This trial tests whether a treatment called intravascular lithotripsy (using sound waves from inside a blood vessel) can help widen severely calcified, narrowed iliac arteries so a TAVR procedure can be done through the groin. It may help some people who are considered “high risk” for access, based on CT scan findings.
Plano, TexasAges 18–90 - NCT06352671Recruiting
Long-Term Outcomes of a Standardized Ross Procedure
This study follows patients who are having a Ross procedure (a type of heart valve surgery) at select hospitals. Researchers will track their health outcomes over a long period to understand how well the surgery works.
Plano, TexasAges 18–90 - 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.
San Antonio, TexasAges 50 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.
Houston, TexasAges 50–80 - NCT06137807Recruiting
TricValve for severe tricuspid regurgitation
This trial is testing a new device called the TricValve to treat severe tricuspid regurgitation (a leaky heart valve on the right side). It is for people who still have symptoms despite taking heart failure medications.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - 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.
Plano, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04408430Recruiting
Valve replacement for severe mitral valve disease in high-risk adults
This trial tests a less-invasive way to treat severe mitral valve problems using a transcatheter valve. It may help people who are too high-risk for standard open-heart mitral surgery by improving symptoms and heart function.
San Antonio, TexasAges 18 years+ - 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 Texas?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 16 recruiting aortic valve disease studies with a site in Texas, 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 Texas?
- 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 Texas to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in Texas, 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.
Not the right time?
New aortic valve disease studies open in Texas regularly. Set up a health profile and we’ll quietly watch for studies that fit you and email you when one opens.
