Recruiting studies
- NCT04076150Recruiting
Testing a new valve placed through a blood vessel
This study checks whether an “investigational” transcatheter aortic valve is safe and works well for people with severe, calcified aortic stenosis (a stiff, narrowed heart valve). It may help improve valve function and symptoms, but you must meet specific heart, scan, and health-status requirements.
KrakowAges 70 years+ - NCT04126018Recruiting
MRI scan comparison for certain leaking or narrowed heart valves
This trial studies how well different MRI images can assess heart valve problems—like leaking (regurgitation) or narrowing (stenosis). It may help doctors get clearer information, especially in people who may not respond well to cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT).
Cleveland, OhioAges 18–90 - NCT04204915Recruiting
Early valve replacement for severe but symptom-free aortic narrowing
This study looks at whether replacing a narrowed heart valve early helps people who have severe aortic stenosis but no symptoms. You would be randomly assigned to early valve replacement or careful waiting with regular check-ups.
Garran, Australian Capital TerritoryAges 18 years+ - NCT04414878Recruiting
Transcatheter aortic valve replacement for older, high-risk patients
This trial tests a new heart valve replacement done through a catheter (not open-heart surgery) in older adults with severe aortic valve narrowing. It’s mainly for people who are high-risk or not good candidates for standard surgery, to see if the new valve improves outcomes.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 70 years+ - NCT04414865Recruiting
Check a new heart valve treatment for older, high-risk patients
This study follows how the VitaFlow heart valve works in people age 70+ who have severe, narrowed aortic valves and cannot safely get open-heart valve surgery. It’s meant to see whether the device improves outcomes and is safe over time.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 70 years+ - NCT04454177Recruiting
Smartwatch help to discharge earlier after valve replacement
This study tests whether using a smartwatch can safely help people leave the hospital earlier after a transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). It checks comfort, safety, and follow-up at home.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18 years+ - NCT04613193Recruiting
Lower blood pressure to study outcomes in mild valve narrowing
This trial studies whether lowering blood pressure affects health outcomes in people who have valve narrowing in the heart but no valve symptoms yet. It may help you understand which blood pressure targets are safest when the aortic valve is not fully opening.
AarhusAges 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.
Huntsville, AlabamaAges Any age - NCT04703699Recruiting
Study of a heart valve implant after 30 days
This study looks at people who already received the Myval THV heart valve implant for severe native aortic valve narrowing. It checks how patients are doing after at least 30 days of follow-up to better understand the valve’s performance.
TallinnAges 18 years+ - NCT04722796Recruiting
TAVR for bicuspid aortic valve with a specific device
This study tests a “solution” approach using a self-expanding valve during TAVR (a less invasive way to replace a narrowed aortic valve). It aims to improve how well the valve fits and works in people with a specific heart valve shape (bicuspid aortic stenosis).
Bengbu, AnhuiAges 60 years+ - NCT04861805Recruiting
Transcatheter aortic valve replacement study for high-risk seniors
This study tests a self-expanding artificial aortic valve placed through a blood vessel (no open-heart surgery) in older adults with severe aortic valve narrowing. It may help improve symptoms and heart function by treating the blocked valve.
Bahía BlancaAges 65 years+ - NCT04882488Recruiting
Testing heart scan measurements in severe aortic valve narrowing
This trial compares two pressure-based measurements of blood flow in the coronary arteries with a PET heart scan in people with severe aortic valve stenosis. It may help doctors choose the most accurate way to assess blood flow and guide care during valve treatment.
Bad Oeynhausen, North Rhine-WestphaliaAges 65 years+ - NCT04889872Recruiting
Watchful waiting or TAVR for moderate aortic valve narrowing
This study compares regular monitoring (“clinical surveillance”) versus replacing the aortic valve using a minimally invasive procedure called TAVR for people with moderate aortic stenosis. It aims to see which approach better reduces symptoms or heart damage over time.
Huntsville, AlabamaAges 65 years+ - NCT04893603Recruiting
TAVR valve test for severe, hard-to-pump heart valve
This trial studies whether a new through-the-blood-vessel heart valve (TAVR) is safe and works well for people with severe aortic stenosis who are too risky for traditional surgery. If you qualify, you would be closely followed to check your symptoms and valve function over time.
BeijingAges 70 years+ - NCT04968509RecruitingPhase 3
PCSK9 shots for calcified aortic valve narrowing
This study tests whether adding PCSK9 inhibitor injections (to statin treatment) can slow or improve calcific aortic valve stenosis, a condition where the heart’s aortic valve becomes stiff and narrowed. It’s aimed at adults with mild-to-moderate disease or certain people with severe disease but no symptoms.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT05133843Recruiting
Test heart blood-flow measurements before and after TAVI
This study checks whether special heart tests can better understand “in-between” blocked heart arteries before and after TAVI (a valve replacement done through a catheter). It may help doctors choose the safest, most accurate treatment when coronary artery disease is unclear.
LeipzigAges 18 years+ - NCT05235555Recruiting
TAVI registry for people with severe aortic valve disease
This registry follows people with severe aortic valve narrowing (and sometimes a worn-out valve) who are considered good candidates for TAVI, a valve-replacement procedure. It helps doctors better understand outcomes and care over time.
NaplesAges 55–100 - NCT05439863Recruiting
Valve procedure trial for severe aortic valve problems
This trial studies people with severe aortic valve disease who will receive a catheter-based valve replacement (TAVR). It aims to check how well this approach works for fixing a narrowed or leaky aortic valve, and to monitor outcomes afterward.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18 years+ - NCT05459233Recruiting
Testing ultrasound-guided valve settings after valve-in-valve TAVR
This trial compares two ways to check and fine-tune how well a new valve is working after a “valve-in-valve” TAVR procedure. It looks to see whether measurements from ultrasound of the heart (Doppler echocardiography) match results from a catheter test, which could help guide safer, more accurate valve care.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05552352Recruiting
VR training to help people prepare for aortic valve procedure
This trial tests whether virtual reality (VR) support helps patients feel more informed and prepared for an elective heart valve procedure (TAVI). It’s meant for people who already plan to have a valve replacement through the groin using a catheter, with pain medicines rather than full anesthesia.
Düsseldorf, North Rhine-WestphaliaAges 18 years+ - NCT05603026Recruiting
MRI study for people getting a valve replacement
This study uses MRI (a type of scan) in people who are scheduled for a catheter-based aortic valve replacement through the groin. It aims to see how well MRI can work for these patients and potentially improve care planning around the procedure.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18–105 - 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.
Huntsville, AlabamaAges 50–80 - NCT05711186Recruiting
Shared decision support for aortic valve procedures
This trial tests a structured, team-guided conversation to help you choose between two common valve procedures: SAVR (surgery) or TAVR (a less invasive procedure done through the groin). It may help you make a choice that fits your health goals and preferences.
BernAges 70 years+ - NCT05739253Recruiting
Study how the aorta changes after a valve procedure
This trial looks at how the ascending aorta (the main artery near the heart) changes over time after transcatheter aortic valve replacement. It may help doctors predict who is at risk of aorta enlargement after this less-invasive valve procedure.
