Can a new valve device fix a leaky heart without open surgery?
NCT ID NCT06465745
First seen Aug 03, 2026 · Last updated Aug 04, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This trial is testing a new device called the AltaValve System, which is placed inside the heart to replace a leaky mitral valve. The study includes adults with moderate-to-severe mitral regurgitation who are not suitable for surgery or a less invasive repair procedure. The goal is to see if the device is safe and can reduce the risk of death or heart failure hospitalizations.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- AltaValve System, a transcatheter mitral valve replacement device
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this device could offer a new treatment option for people with severe mitral regurgitation who cannot have surgery or other less invasive procedures, potentially reducing symptoms and hospitalizations.
- What could go wrong
- This is a pivotal trial, but the device is still being tested for safety and effectiveness. Risks include procedural complications, device failure, or the need for re-intervention. Results may not generalize to all patients.
