New heart valve repair without open surgery: could it help High-Risk patients?
NCT ID NCT06700239
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests a new device called the MIA-T system, which is inserted through a catheter to repair the tricuspid valve in people with severe leakage. The trial will enroll 600 patients who are too high-risk for traditional surgery. The goal is to see if the device safely improves symptoms, reduces hospitalizations, and lowers the risk of death.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- MIA-T device (a catheter-based implant to repair the tricuspid valve)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could offer a safer, less invasive option for people with severe tricuspid regurgitation who cannot have open-heart surgery, potentially reducing hospitalizations and improving survival.
- What could go wrong
- This is a large but early-stage pivotal trial; the device may not work as well as hoped, and risks include heart-related complications, kidney failure, or infection. Long-term benefits are not yet proven.
