PragueAges 18 years+ - NCT07695090RecruitingPhase 2
Lumacaftor for improved brain blood flow in heart failure
This trial tests if lumacaftor, a medication used in cystic fibrosis, can improve blood flow to the brain in people with stable heart failure. It might help if you have heart failure with reduced pumping function and low brain blood flow.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT07692256RecruitingPhase 2
Empagliflozin for heart failure in children
This trial tests if empagliflozin, a diabetes medicine that also helps the heart, can improve symptoms in children with heart failure. It may help kids with severe symptoms or high levels of a heart stress marker called BNP.
Cairo, Cairo GovernorateAges 1 month–18 years - NCT06705023RecruitingPhase 2
Fat-derived cell therapy for heart failure
This study tests whether taking a small amount of your own belly fat (through liposuction), processing it, and injecting the cells back into your heart can improve heart function in people with chronic heart failure due to blocked arteries. The trial is for patients whose heart pumps weakly (ejection fraction of 40% or less) and who are already on standard medications.
AstanaAges 21–80 - NCT07554638RecruitingPhase 4
Incretin drugs for heart failure with obesity
This trial tests whether incretin-based diabetes medications (like GLP-1 drugs) can help people with a specific type of heart failure called HFpEF that is linked to obesity. The goal is to see if these drugs improve heart function and symptoms.
New York, New YorkAges 40 years+ - NCT07552142Recruiting
Heart Failure Check-In: Using Questionnaires to Spot Early Warning Signs
This study asks heart failure patients who recently were hospitalized to answer regular questionnaires about how they're feeling. Researchers want to see if these questions can detect when heart failure is getting worse before a patient needs emergency care.
Moscow, Non-US/Non-CanadianAges 18 years+ - NCT07485816Enrolling by invitation
Heart-brain oxygen and thinking changes in heart failure
This study looks at how well your heart and brain work together to use oxygen, and how that relates to changes in thinking and memory for people with heart failure.
Kunming, YunnanAges 18–70 - NCT07402239Recruiting
Heart failure therapy and monitoring device study
This trial tests a device that treats and monitors heart failure. It may help people with chronic heart failure and reduced heart function who still have symptoms despite standard treatments.
Fuzhou, FujianAges 18 years+ - NCT07400991Recruiting
Restrictive vs liberal fluids for hospitalized heart failure
This trial studies whether drinking less fluid (restrictive) vs. the usual amount (liberal) helps people hospitalized with heart failure. It aims to find out which approach leads to better recovery and fewer symptoms.
HerningAges 18 years+ - NCT07397650RecruitingPhase 4
Early finerenone for heart failure in hospital
This trial tests if starting finerenone early helps patients hospitalized with heart failure who have symptoms like shortness of breath or swelling. It aims to see if the drug is safe and effective when given soon after admission.
Handa, Aichi-kenAges 18 years+ - NCT07335510Recruiting
Baroreflex therapy for heart failure patients
This trial tests a device that stimulates a nerve in your neck to help your heart pump better. It is for people with heart failure and a weak heart pump who still have symptoms despite taking medications.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07201714RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Carnitine supplement for heart failure with kidney issues
This trial tests whether taking carnitine supplements by mouth can help people who have both heart failure and early-to-moderate kidney problems. It's an early-phase study to see if the supplement is safe and works for this group.
London, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT06940544Recruiting
Heart failure screening study for adults 40+
This study is looking for people who may have undiagnosed heart failure. It tests a self-screening method at home to find heart problems earlier.
UppsalaAges 40 years+ - NCT07166965Enrolling by invitation
Supplement for Heart Failure: Ketones and Hawthorn
This trial tests whether adding a supplement containing ketones and hawthorn extract can help people with heart failure feel better and improve their heart function. You will take the supplement daily and have imaging scans and exercise tests to monitor your progress.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06977477Recruiting
Managing fluid buildup in heart failure patients
This study tests a new way to manage fluid buildup in patients with a specific type of heart failure (HFpEF) who are in the hospital. It aims to improve how doctors remove excess fluid and help you feel better.
Magdeburg, Saxony-AnhaltAges 18 years+ - NCT06653725RecruitingPhase 2

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for chronic heart failure?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 385 recruiting chronic 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 chronic 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 chronic 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.
