Recruiting studies near Philadelphia
- NCT06517186Recruiting
Heart failure study with preserved pumping function
This study looks at how the heart muscle works in people with a type of heart failure where the heart pumps normally but doesn't fill properly. It aims to understand the cause better, which could lead to new treatments.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 30 years+ - NCT06670001Recruiting
Increasing daily steps in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction
This study tests if simple rewards and reminders on a smartphone can help people with a certain type of heart failure (HFpEF) become more physically active. The goal is to see if increasing daily steps improves their health and well-being.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT02901184RecruitingPhase 3
Spironolactone start study for heart failure with preserved pumping
This trial tests whether starting spironolactone helps people with heart failure symptoms when the heart pumps “preserved” (not severely reduced). Participants are assigned to start spironolactone or usual care so researchers can see if it improves outcomes.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 50–99 - NCT05138575RecruitingPhase 2
Testing SGLT2 pill and potassium nitrate for heart failure with preserved EF
This trial studies whether two medicines—an SGLT2 inhibitor and potassium nitrate—can improve symptoms and heart function in people with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). It focuses on people who still have signs of “stiff” or high filling pressure in the heart despite a normal-ish ejection fraction.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04913805RecruitingPhase 2
Study for HFpEF using heart pressure and energy signals
This Phase 2 study tests how matching heart “filling pressure” and heart muscle “energy use” may improve understanding or treatment of HFpEF, a type of heart failure with preserved pumping strength. You may be asked to have heart scans/tests and follow a study plan if your symptoms and test results fit.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05873634Recruiting
Using health records and testing to study heart failure types
This study combines electronic health record data and detailed heart testing to better understand different heart failure types and what treatments may work best for each. It mainly enrolls people with known heart failure, and also some people without heart failure for comparison.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 30 years+ - NCT06008197RecruitingPhase 3
A study of finerenone for hospitalized heart failure patients
This trial tests a medication called finerenone to see if it helps people hospitalized for heart failure live longer and have fewer heart-related problems. It may be an option for those with a certain type of heart failure where the heart's pumping strength is mildly reduced or normal.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05064709Recruiting
Test device for heart failure symptoms in some patients
This study tests whether a heart-related device called CCM can improve symptoms and daily function in people with heart failure and a moderately reduced pumping strength. It may help if you’ve had recent heart-failure-related hospital care or urgent treatment and your heart and overall health fit the study limits.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06678841Recruiting
Pacing therapy for heart failure with preserved pumping ability
This study tests a new pacing approach for people with a specific type of heart failure (HFpEF) to see if it can improve symptoms and quality of life. It involves a pacemaker-like device that adjusts heart rate based on your needs.
Wynnewood, PennsylvaniaAges 40 years+ - NCT06979362RecruitingPhase 2
Study of CDR132L for heart failure with preserved pumping function
This trial tests if CDR132L can improve heart structure and function in people with a type of heart failure where the heart pumps normally but is stiff and thickened. It may help if you have heart failure with preserved ejection fraction and a thickened heart muscle.
Abington, PennsylvaniaAges 40–84 - NCT07037459RecruitingPhase 3
A study of a new drug for heart failure with obesity
This trial tests a medication called maridebart cafraglutide for people with heart failure (where the heart doesn't pump as well as it should) and obesity. The goal is to see if it can help improve symptoms and outcomes.

What taking part in a heart failure with preserved ejection fraction study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.
