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.

Testing a treatment for heart failure symptoms with normal pumping ability
This study is looking at a new treatment for people with heart failure where the heart’s pumping strength is not reduced much (HFpEF or HFmrEF), but pressure inside the heart is high during exercise. It may help relieve symptoms in people who still feel unwell during normal activity despite stable standard treatment.

Finerenone plus SGLT2i for hospitalized heart failure
This trial tests whether adding two heart medicines together (finerenone and an SGLT2 inhibitor) helps people who are in the hospital for heart failure recover better. It may be an option for you if you are currently hospitalized and your heart stress markers are high.

What taking part in a heart failure 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.
