I have BTC in my wallet but I lost my private key and I can't do transactions anymore. How can I get a new private key or pass the BTC to another address?

If you don't have the private key, there is no way to access those coins. Period. The security of Bitcoin as a currency relies on that fact.

Either recover the private key somehow, or consider the coins gone.
