New study checks safety of combined heart valve and aorta graft

NCT ID NCT04754217

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

Summary

This study is testing a device called a valved graft, which replaces both the aortic valve and the ascending aorta in one surgery. It includes 260 people with aortic valve disease, an enlarged aorta, or aortic dissection. The goal is to see how safe and effective the device is by tracking deaths and the need for repeat procedures over time.

What this could mean

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

Active substance

Valved graft device (VAVGJ or CAVGJ) for replacing the aortic valve and ascending aorta

What this could lead to

If successful, this could confirm that the valved graft is a safe and effective option for people needing replacement of both the aortic valve and ascending aorta.

What could go wrong

This is an observational post-market study, not a randomized trial, so results may not prove the device is better than alternatives. Risks include complications from surgery, such as bleeding, infection, or device failure.
