- NCT05934487Recruiting
Monitoring device trial for stable heart failure symptoms

Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06939751Recruiting
Testing microRNA levels to personalize heart transplant care
This trial is studying whether a blood test that measures small molecules called microRNAs can help doctors personalize the medicines used to prevent rejection after a heart transplant. If you qualify, you would help researchers learn how to better match immunosuppression to each patient's needs.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18–99 - NCT06736574RecruitingPhase 3
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.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18–85 - NCT06307652RecruitingPhase 3

Liver scan to detect high blood pressure in the heart
This trial uses a special liver scan (FibroScan) to measure liver stiffness, which may help detect high pressure in the central veins returning blood to the heart. It is for people with heart failure who are already scheduled for a right heart catheterization.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04278404Recruiting
Drug safety study for children already on certain medicines

Compare bypass or stent treatment in weak heart patients
This study compares two ways to restore blood flow to the heart—bypass surgery (CABG) or stent procedure (PCI)—in people with a weak pumping heart. It looks at which approach works best when the heart muscle is not pumping well and there are multiple blocked heart arteries.

Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT03876223Recruiting
Testing imaging to study heart symptoms without blocked arteries
This trial studies people who have heart-related symptoms but do not have clear blocked heart arteries, using special heart imaging. It may help researchers better understand early forms of heart weakness (with preserved pumping function) and improve how these conditions are diagnosed.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05714085RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Vericiguat study for children with heart failure
This trial tests whether vericiguat helps children with chronic heart failure caused by weaker left heart pumping. It also checks safety and how the medicine behaves in the body (dose and processing).

Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06895070Recruiting
Heart transplant study using a special preservation machine
This trial tests a special machine that preserves donor hearts for longer periods before transplant. It may help people waiting for a heart transplant who need a heart from a donor that may be older or has some heart risks.

Testing NNC0487-0111 for Heart Failure and Obesity
This study tests whether a new medication called NNC0487-0111 can help people with heart failure who also have obesity. Researchers will compare it to a placebo (inactive pill) to see if it improves heart function and overall health.

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.
