Trial of a new tricuspid valve replacement device
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests a new catheter-based device to replace your tricuspid valve without open-heart surgery. It's for people with severe tricuspid regurgitation who are at high risk for surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 84 years old.
- You have severe tricuspid valve leakage (grade 3 or higher) based on an echocardiogram.
- You have symptoms of heart failure, like shortness of breath or swelling, that limit your daily activities.
- Your heart's main pumping chamber is working at least 30% of normal.
- You are considered too high risk for open-heart surgery.
- Your vein and heart valve anatomy are suitable for the procedure (checked by a CT scan).

This study tests a new, catheter-based procedure to treat moderate-to-severe leaking of the tricuspid valve (a heart valve on the right side). It’s for people who are high surgical risk and might benefit from replacing the valve without open-heart surgery.
This trial tests a new device called Laplace TTVR to replace a leaky tricuspid valve in the heart without open surgery. It is for people with severe symptoms despite medical treatment.
This trial is testing a new, less-invasive device to fix the tricuspid valve in the heart for people with severe leakage. It may be an option if you are not a good candidate for traditional open-heart surgery and have tried other treatments.
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.
This study tests a new, less invasive way to replace the tricuspid valve (the valve between the right upper and lower heart chambers) in people with severe leakage. The valve is delivered through a vein in the neck or leg, avoiding open-heart surgery.
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.
