New clip device for leaky heart valve in people who can't have standard repair
Part of Digestive system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests a new device, called MRace, that is placed with a thin tube into the heart to fix a leaky mitral valve. It's for people whose valve is too complex for the usual clip repair, and who are too high-risk for open-heart surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 21 or older.
- You have moderate-to-severe or severe mitral regurgitation (leaky heart valve) that causes symptoms.
- You are on stable heart failure medications (no major changes in the last 30 days).
- Your heart team says you are high risk for open-heart surgery but could still have it.
- Your heart anatomy is not suitable for standard clip repair but might fit this new device.
- You have not had prior mitral valve surgery or a clip procedure.

This study tests a new device called MRace for people with a leaking mitral valve (functional mitral regurgitation) whose heart structure makes standard repair difficult. The device is placed through a vein in the leg to fix the leak without open-heart surgery.
This study tests a new device (MRace) for people with a leaky mitral valve whose anatomy is too complex for the standard clip treatment. The device is placed through a vein in the leg to help the valve close better, which may reduce symptoms and improve quality of life.
This trial is testing a new device to help people with severe mitral regurgitation (a leaky heart valve) who cannot have open-heart surgery or a valve clip. The device is placed using a thin tube through a blood vessel, and aims to improve symptoms and quality of life.
This trial tests a new device called MRace that may fix a leaky mitral valve without open-heart surgery. It's for people whose valve leaks severely and who can't have standard surgery due to other health issues.
This study tests a new device called the MRace implant that is designed to repair a leaky mitral valve without open-heart surgery. It may help people with severe leakage who are at high risk for traditional surgery.
This trial tests a minimally invasive procedure to repair a leaky mitral valve (the valve between the upper and lower chambers of your heart) in people with heart failure who haven't improved with medication alone. The procedure uses a catheter-based system inserted through the groin to replace part of the valve, potentially reducing symptoms and improving heart function.
