- NCT05848284Recruiting
Tricuspid valve replacement to reduce leaking in the heart
This trial tests a new catheter-based procedure that replaces the tricuspid valve to reduce severe valve leaking. It may help people who still have symptoms despite heart medicines, but only if their heart shape and other health details fit the device requirements.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07466745Recruiting
New Pulmonary Valve Study for Kids Needing Replacement
This study tests a new type of replacement valve for children who need a new pulmonary valve (the valve between the heart and lungs). Researchers want to see if the valve works safely and well in real-world use.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 1.5 years–16 years - NCT07413965Recruiting
Transcatheter vs surgical valve replacement for severe bicuspid aortic stenosis
This trial compares two ways to replace a narrowed heart valve in people with a bicuspid aortic valve. If you're 50 or older and need a new valve, this study can help figure out which approach works best.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 50 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.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges Any age - 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.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 60 years+ - NCT06310031Recruiting
Testing BrioVAD heart pump for severe heart failure
This trial tests a new left-ventricular assist device (LVAD) called BrioVAD for people with advanced heart failure who are not getting enough benefit from medicines. If you qualify, the device is implanted to help your heart pump blood.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18–100 - 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.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 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.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 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.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05610787Enrolling by invitation
Testing a device that helps move an EXCOR pediatric heart pump
This trial studies an “active driving” system that controls the EXCOR pediatric heart pump. It’s meant for children who need a heart pump as a bridge to heart transplantation, to help the pump work more safely and effectively.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges Up to 21 years - NCT02744677Recruiting
Pulmonary valve procedure to improve blood flow issues
This trial studies a transcatheter pulmonary valve (a valve placed through a catheter) in people whose right-sided outflow tract valve/conduit is not working well. It aims to improve blood flow and reduce pressure problems, while checking safety and results after the procedure.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 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.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT00573027Recruiting
Study of heart pain from small artery heart disease
This trial studies people who have chest pain (angina) due to problems with the heart’s small arteries, not a big blockage. It aims to test whether treatment approaches can help these patients by better understanding the cause of their heart-related symptoms.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07130994Recruiting
Testing a new less invasive mitral valve replacement (SATURN)
This trial tests a new, less invasive device called the SATURN system to replace a severely leaky mitral heart valve without open-heart surgery. It is for people who are too high-risk for traditional surgery and are willing to take blood thinners.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04451044Enrolling by invitation
Guided heart stent planning using an inside pressure sensor
This study tests whether using a tiny pressure sensor in heart arteries during a procedure can better guide where to place a stent. It may help doctors choose the safest and most effective stent plan by more accurately measuring artery narrowing.
Glendale, CaliforniaAges 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.
Torrance, CaliforniaAges Any age - NCT07276711Recruiting
Protecting brain during TAVR with EmStop device
This trial tests a new device (EmStop) that helps protect your brain during TAVR (a type of heart valve replacement). The device is placed in arteries to catch any debris that might break loose during the procedure, potentially reducing the risk of stroke.
Thousand Oaks, CaliforniaAges 22 years+ - NCT07069673Recruiting
Abbott Cephea mitral valve disease registry
This study tracks people with mitral valve disease who receive the Cephea valve through a tube in an artery rather than open-heart surgery. It looks at how well the valve works over time.
Thousand Oaks, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - 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.
Thousand Oaks, CaliforniaAges 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.
Thousand Oaks, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - 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.

What taking part in a heart valve diseases 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.
