New registry aims to unlock secrets of rare heart disease from gut tumors

NCT ID NCT07450287

First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study will create a registry of about 120 patients in Poland who have carcinoid heart disease, a rare complication of neuroendocrine tumors that damages heart valves. Researchers will collect medical records, echocardiograms, and lab results to better understand who develops this condition and how it is managed. The goal is to improve risk prediction and guide treatment decisions, such as when valve surgery or less invasive procedures are needed.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to

If successful, this registry could help doctors better identify who is at risk for severe heart valve problems from carcinoid tumors and guide better treatment choices.

What could go wrong

This is an observational study, not a treatment trial, so it won't directly test a new therapy. It may not lead to immediate changes in patient care.
