Recruiting studies
- NCT06868797Recruiting
Dapagliflozin for advanced heart failure patients waiting for transplant
This study tests whether dapagliflozin (a medicine already approved for other heart conditions) can help protect kidney and heart function in people with very advanced heart failure who are waiting for a heart transplant. If you qualify, you'll help researchers learn if this drug offers extra benefits beyond standard care.
BronAges 18 years+ - NCT06909682Recruiting
AI monitoring with wearables for chronic heart failure
This trial tests an AI system that uses wearable devices and mini-invasive tools to monitor people with chronic heart failure. The goal is to detect changes early and help manage the condition at home.
SalernoAges 19 years+ - NCT06915584Recruiting
Drug management study for heart failure
This study looks at how medications are managed in people with heart failure, especially those who have been in the hospital recently for worsening symptoms. It aims to improve treatment strategies.
Rome, RMAges 18 years+ - NCT06979726RecruitingPhase 4
Lasix under the skin for heart failure symptoms
This study tests a way to give a common water pill (called Lasix, or furosemide) under the skin using a small pump at home, instead of in the hospital. It may help people with heart failure who have fluid buildup that isn't getting better with oral water pills.
Gainesville, FloridaAges 18–80 - NCT07023536Recruiting
Heart rehab program from home for chronic heart failure
This trial tests a cardiac telerehabilitation program for people with chronic heart failure. It is designed to see if doing rehab at home using digital tools helps improve health and quality of life.
SalernoAges 18 years+ - NCT07252531Recruiting
BrioVAD heart pump study for advanced heart failure
This trial tests a new heart pump (BrioVAD) for people with very advanced heart failure. It aims to help those who are not getting better with standard treatments or who need extra support like IV medicines or a balloon pump.
RotterdamAges 18 years+ - NCT07405944RecruitingPhase 4
Vericiguat and heart function in heart failure patients
This trial tests whether vericiguat can improve heart function in people with stable heart failure and a reduced pumping ability. It may help if you have not needed hospital or IV treatments for worsening heart failure in the last 6 months.
LjubljanaAges 18 years+ - NCT07496372RecruitingPhase 3
Stem cell injection for advanced heart failure
This trial tests a treatment made from stem cells that are turned into heart muscle cells and injected directly into the heart. It is for people with advanced heart failure who are already on the best available medicines and who are scheduled to have bypass surgery.
Tianjin, Tianjin MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT07251894Enrolling by invitation
Meals after heart failure hospitalization
This study provides medically tailored meals to people recently hospitalized with heart failure to see if they help recovery. It is testing whether having healthy meals delivered can improve how patients feel and reduce the chance of being readmitted to the hospital.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07243119Enrolling by invitationPhase 4
Heart failure study with adenosine scans to predict recovery
This trial tests whether high-dose adenosine during a heart scan can better predict how well your heart muscle might recover, compared to standard dosing. The information could help doctors personalize treatment for people newly diagnosed with heart failure and a low ejection fraction.
HerningAges 18–100 - NCT06361524Enrolling by invitation
Gut bacteria study in chronic heart failure
This study looks at the bacteria in your gut (your 'gut microbiome') and how it relates to chronic heart failure. It may help doctors understand why some people with heart failure do better than others and could lead to better treatments in the future.
Stanford, CaliforniaAges 18–75 - NCT06299176Enrolling by invitationPhase 1
Whole-heart radiation therapy for advanced heart failure
This trial tests if a low dose of radiation to the whole heart can help people with very advanced heart failure. It is for people who have severe symptoms despite maximum medications and are not candidates for a heart pump or transplant.
Montreal, QuebecAges 65 years+ - NCT05966415RecruitingPhase 2
Endocalyx for heart failure with fluid overload
This Phase 2 study tests Endocalyx to treat people with heart failure who currently show signs of fluid buildup (congestion). If you qualify, you may help researchers see whether this supplement can improve symptoms and heart-failure–related measurements.
Amsterdam, North HollandAges 18–110 - NCT04405583Recruiting
Follow-up study for a heart device in heart failure patients
This study follows people with chronic heart failure to see how well an implanted device (called the Occlutech AFR) works and whether it is safe over time. It may help doctors better understand who benefits and how to manage treatment safely.
BesançonAges 18 years+ - NCT06653725RecruitingPhase 2
Ketone supplement study for hospitalized heart failure patients
This trial tests if a ketone supplement can help people hospitalized for acute heart failure. The supplement is given orally and aims to support the heart and energy levels during recovery.
AalborgAges 18 years+ - NCT06659952Recruiting
HIV+ donor hearts for HIV+ recipients
This trial tests whether hearts from donors who had HIV can be safely transplanted into people with HIV who need a heart transplant. It may offer a new option for those on the waiting list.
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06747689Recruiting
Sleep quality and self-care in heart failure
This study looks at how sleep quality affects the ability of people with heart failure to manage their own health. It aims to find if better sleep leads to better self-care.
IzmirAges 18 years+ - NCT07108231Recruiting
Breathing muscle training for hospitalized heart failure patients
This trial tests whether training the muscles you use to breathe can help people recover while in the hospital for heart failure. If you are stable enough, you may be able to join.
Rio de Janeiro, Rio de JaneiroAges 18 years+ - NCT05390411Enrolling by invitation
Training to improve how advanced heart failure therapies are chosen
This study tests a program that helps care teams make more consistent, fair decisions about advanced heart failure treatments like heart transplants and mechanical heart pumps. It focuses on how professionals are trained and evaluated, not on patients receiving a new medicine.
Indianapolis, IndianaAges 18 years+ - NCT02898181Recruiting
Ear cartilage stimulation for sudden heart failure worsening
This trial tests whether a gentle stimulation near your ear (on the tragus, a small ear area) can help people whose heart failure has recently gotten worse while in the hospital. If it works, it may improve symptoms and recovery during this acute phase.
Oklahoma City, OklahomaAges 18–80 - NCT06927440Enrolling by invitation
Registry for children with severe heart failure in China
This study is creating a registry to learn more about children with advanced heart failure. It will help doctors understand who can benefit from treatments like medicine, devices, or transplants.

Long-term survival after LVAD for end-stage heart failure
This trial looks at how well people with advanced heart failure do over the long term after getting a left-ventricular assist device (LVAD). Researchers will check blood and heart tissue samples to learn more about recovery and outcomes.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges Any age - NCT02537769Recruiting
Surgery to fix a leaky tricuspid valve in LVAD patients
This study looks at whether fixing a mildly leaky tricuspid valve during LVAD surgery improves outcomes for people with advanced heart failure. It’s mainly aimed at patients who are already scheduled to receive an implantable LVAD.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for advanced heart failure?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 97 recruiting advanced heart failure studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a advanced heart failure trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a advanced heart failure trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
