Study of heart valve leak in people with coronary heart disease
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at people who have coronary heart disease and a leaky mitral valve caused by a heart attack or reduced blood flow to the heart. The goal is to learn more about this condition and find better ways to treat it.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You have been diagnosed with coronary heart disease.
- An ultrasound of your heart shows a leaky mitral valve that is moderate or worse.
- The leaky valve is caused by heart muscle damage from a heart attack or poor blood flow, not by other valve problems.
- You have not had heart valve surgery or a procedure to fix a heart valve.
- You are not currently in another clinical study and have not been in one in the past year.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial tests a device placed during open heart surgery that tightens the leaking mitral valve to reduce blood flowing backward. It may help people whose valve leak is caused by heart muscle weakness and who are already having another heart surgery.
This study looks at how symptoms relate to the severity of mitral regurgitation, a leaky heart valve. Researchers want to better understand the link between what you feel and the actual degree of the leak.
This trial tests a new device designed to fix a leaky mitral valve in people with heart failure. It may help you breathe easier and feel less tired if your valve leak is severe and medicines have not been enough.
This study looks at people with moderate or severe mitral regurgitation (a leaky heart valve) to better understand their risks and create models to guide treatment. It may help your doctor decide on the best care plan for you.
This study collects and compares real-world results to help doctors choose the best treatment for mitral valve “leakiness.” If you have clinically significant mitral insufficiency and have already had a specific heart procedure screening, your echocardiogram results may be used to understand outcomes over at least a month.
This study looks at heart rhythm problems in people having mitral valve surgery to fix a leaky valve. It may help doctors better understand who is at risk for dangerous rhythms.
