New heart valve trial hopes to offer less invasive option for aortic stenosis patients
NCT ID NCT05804903
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study is testing a new device called the ALLEGRA Plus Transcatheter Heart Valve in 177 people with severe aortic stenosis or a failed surgical valve. The valve is implanted through a catheter, avoiding open-heart surgery. Researchers are checking how safe and effective it is over 12 months, focusing on death and stroke rates.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- ALLEGRA Plus Transcatheter Heart Valve (a device implanted via a catheter to replace the aortic valve)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could provide a less invasive treatment option for people with severe aortic stenosis or a failed surgical valve, potentially improving survival and reducing stroke risk.
- What could go wrong
- The trial is currently suspended, and it is an early-stage study with only 177 participants. Risks include complications from the procedure, such as stroke or death, and the device may not perform as well as expected.
