Study of omecamtiv mecarbil for chronic heart failure with very weak heart pump
This study tests an investigational medicine (omecamtiv mecarbil) for people with chronic heart failure and very low pumping strength. It looks at whether the drug can help prevent heart failure events or the need for stronger treatments.
Alexander City, AlabamaAges 18–85 - NCT05276219RecruitingPhase 4
Vasodilators or diuretics for acute heart failure
This trial compares two treatments for sudden heart failure symptoms like severe shortness of breath. It aims to see whether opening blood vessels or using a water pill works better to relieve congestion and improve breathing.
Copenhagen, CopenhagenAges 18 years+ - 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+ - NCT06310031Recruiting
Testing BrioVAD heart pump for severe heart failure
This trial tests a new left-ventricular assist device (LVAD) called BrioVAD for people with advanced heart failure who are not getting enough benefit from medicines. If you qualify, the device is implanted to help your heart pump blood.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18–100 - NCT07038356RecruitingPhase 3
Continuing empagliflozin for heart failure patients in hospital
This trial tests whether staying on the medication empagliflozin helps people with heart failure who are hospitalized for worsening symptoms. Empagliflozin is a type of drug called an SGLT2 inhibitor, which helps control blood sugar and protect the heart.
Jena, ThuringiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06844006Enrolling by invitation
How nudges help doctors prescribe heart failure medications
This study looks at whether gentle reminders (nudges) can help doctors prescribe the right heart failure medications. It aims to improve treatment for people with heart failure.
Eindhoven, North BrabantAges 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+ - NCT07574593Recruiting
Heart Failure Sensor Implant Study
This study tests a small sensor placed in a vein to help monitor and manage heart failure. The sensor tracks fluid buildup in your heart and may help doctors adjust your treatment to keep you feeling better and out of the hospital.
Chula Vista, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT03806972Recruiting
Study outcomes after emergency heart failure admission
This study follows people admitted to the emergency department for acute heart failure to understand their short- and long-term outcomes. It may help doctors predict who needs more support and improve follow-up after discharge.
Monastir, Monastir GovernorateAges 18–80 - NCT06791850Recruiting
Home heart failure support for rural patients and caregivers
This trial tests a home-based palliative care program for people with advanced heart failure living in rural areas and their caregivers. It aims to improve quality of life and reduce symptoms.
Morgantown, West VirginiaAges 45–80 - NCT06656832Recruiting
How Heart Failure Progresses in Hospitalized Patients
This study looks at why heart failure gets worse over time. It involves people who have been hospitalized for heart failure and have a known heart abnormality. Doctors will monitor your health to find clues about disease progression.
LeipzigAges 18 years+ - NCT06514820Recruiting
Exercise MRI study for obesity-related heart failure
This study uses an exercise test with MRI to understand how obesity affects the heart in people with heart failure. It aims to find better ways to diagnose and help patients.
GroningenAges 18 years+ - NCT06783166RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Comparing two medications for acute heart failure with fluid buildup
This trial tests if dapagliflozin or acetazolamide works better for people hospitalized with heart failure who have extra fluid in their body (congestion). The study will compare how well each medication helps remove fluid when used with standard IV diuretics.

Stopping heart meds after recovery from fast heartbeat damage
This trial tests if patients whose heart function returned to normal after treating a fast heartbeat can safely stop their heart failure medications. It aims to see if treatment can be withdrawn without the heart problems coming back.
CopenhagenAges 18 years+ - NCT05255172Enrolling by invitation
Exercise program for heart failure with preserved or reduced pumping
This trial tests whether a structured exercise program can help people with heart failure. It focuses on people who are currently not very active, aiming to improve symptoms and heart/fitness measures safely.
LundAges 50–90 - NCT05392764RecruitingPhase 3
SGLT2 medicine for high-risk people after sudden worsening heart failure
This Phase 3 trial tests whether starting an SGLT2 inhibitor early in the hospital can improve outcomes for people at high risk after acute (sudden) heart failure. If you qualify, you would be randomized to receive the study medicine or standard care, started within 12 hours of admission.
Anjo, Aichi-kenAges 20 years+ - NCT03775577Recruiting

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for heart failure patients?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 794 recruiting heart failure patients 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 heart failure patients 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 heart failure patients 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.
