New study aims to simplify care for patients with multiple leaky heart valves
NCT ID NCT07623083
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a step-by-step treatment plan for people with a narrowed aortic valve who also have leaky mitral or tricuspid valves. After a minimally invasive procedure to fix the aortic valve, doctors will check if the other valves still leak badly. If so, additional procedures may be done. The goal is to see if this staged approach improves survival, reduces hospital stays, and boosts quality of life.

Who can take part
This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.
Who is studied
The study population will consist of adult patients with severe symptomatic aortic stenosis undergoing transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) who also present with significant concomitant mitral regurgitation and/or tricuspid regurgitation. The study will mainly include elderly patients and patients considered at intermediate, high, or prohibitive surgical risk for conventional open-heart surgery. Eligible participants will have moderate-to-severe or severe mitral and/or tricuspid valve regurgitation identified by echocardiography before TAVI. Patients will be evaluated and treated according to a staged transcatheter treatment algorithm based on current clinical guidelines and the evolution of valve disease following TAVI.
