New heart valve device aims to fix leaky tricuspid without open surgery

NCT ID NCT05913908

First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This early study is testing a new device called the DUO System, which is placed through a catheter to reduce leakage in the tricuspid valve. The study will include 15 people with severe tricuspid regurgitation who still have symptoms despite medical therapy. The main goal is to see if the device is safe and works properly.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
DUO Transcatheter Tricuspid Coaptation Valve System (a device implanted via catheter to reduce tricuspid valve leakage)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could offer a less invasive treatment option for people with severe tricuspid regurgitation who are not candidates for open-heart surgery.
What could go wrong
This is a very early feasibility study with only 15 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The device could cause serious complications like bleeding, stroke, or heart damage.
