Could a mitral valve fix a tricuspid problem? small trial tests donor tissue swap
NCT ID NCT06196684
First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study is testing whether a donated mitral valve can safely replace a diseased tricuspid valve in 30 patients with primary tricuspid valve disease. The goal is to see if this approach is safe and works well in the short term. Researchers will track complications like bleeding, stroke, and valve function.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only โ not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- mitral valve allograft (donor tissue)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could offer a new surgical option for tricuspid valve replacement using donor tissue, potentially improving outcomes.
- What could go wrong
- This is a very small, early-stage study with only 30 participants, so results may not apply widely. Risks include bleeding, infection, and valve dysfunction.
