Study of Chinese congenital bicuspid aortic valve
Part of Genetic & congenital, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at people with a bicuspid aortic valve (a valve with two flaps instead of three) in Chinese patients. It collects information about this condition to better understand it.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 14 and 60 years old.
- You have been diagnosed with a bicuspid aortic valve using an imaging test like an echocardiogram, CT scan, or MRI.
- You do not have rheumatic heart valve disease or another organic (structural) valve problem.
- You do not have hyperthyroidism or severe anemia that could affect your blood flow.
- You are willing to follow the study schedule and return for all required visits.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial looks back at people with a specific type of bicuspid aortic valve (a valve with two flaps instead of three) who had a transcatheter aortic valve replacement. Researchers want to see how well a special sizing method called LIRA worked for choosing the right valve size.
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.
This trial tests two different ways to repair a leaky bicuspid aortic valve (a valve with two flaps instead of three). The goal is to see which repair method works better. If you need surgery for a severely leaking valve and your valve is the right shape, you may be able to join.
This study follows people with moderate aortic valve disease to learn how their condition changes. It does not test a new treatment but will help doctors better understand the disease.
This study looks for genetic (inherited) differences that may be linked to bicuspid aortic valve (BAV). It includes people with BAV and close family members to help understand why BAV happens and whether genes play a role.
This study looks at how genes may affect the risk of calcium buildup in the aortic valve in people with a bicuspid aortic valve. By joining, you help researchers find better ways to predict and manage this heart condition.
