Recruiting studies
- NCT05651919Recruiting
Blood test study to understand diabetic heart weakness
This study measures immune cells from your blood to find markers (biomarkers) that may explain or predict diabetic cardiomyopathy, a type of heart condition linked to diabetes. You may benefit mainly by being closely monitored and contributing to research that could improve future diagnosis or risk tracking.
BronAges 40–85 - NCT05878912Recruiting
Obesity and weight loss in certain heart failure patients
This study looks at how higher body weight and weight loss affect people who have heart failure with preserved pumping strength. It uses heart scans to measure how the heart and body change, which may help guide future treatment plans.
OxfordAges 18–85 - NCT06307652RecruitingPhase 3
Testing a new heart failure and kidney treatment combo
This study tests a new combination of two medicines (balcinrenone and dapagliflozin) for people with heart failure and reduced kidney function. The goal is to see if this combination helps improve heart and kidney health better than current treatments.
Alexander City, AlabamaAges 18–130 - NCT06465043Recruiting
Understanding Heart Failure When the Heart Stiffens
This study is for people with a type of heart failure called HFpEF, where the heart pumps normally but doesn't relax well. It aims to better understand heart failure through advanced testing, and it includes people who are newly diagnosed or have had a recent hospitalization.
HelsinkiAges 18–85 - NCT06545370Recruiting
Nurse Education for Heart Failure Patients and Caregivers

Heraklion, CreteAges 18 years+ - NCT06580392Recruiting
CCM device plus medications for heart failure with low pump strength
This study tests a heart device (CCM) plus standard medications to see if the combination helps people with a weak heart pump. It's for those whose heart function is low and who still have symptoms despite current treatment.
Rome, ItalyAges 18 years+ - NCT06620653Recruiting
Heart failure recovery at home study
This study tests a virtual ward program for people recently hospitalized with heart failure. It aims to see if monitoring and support at home can improve recovery and quality of life.
Ballinasloe, GalwayAges 18 years+ - NCT06630923RecruitingPhase 3
Preventing kidney worsening with IV albumin in heart failure
This trial tests if giving a medicine called albumin through a vein can help prevent kidney function from getting worse in people hospitalized with worsening heart failure and liver problems. It may be an option if other treatments haven't worked.
Alexandroupoli, EvrosAges 18–95 - NCT06733012Recruiting
Nerve block trial for heart failure patients
This trial tests a nerve block procedure to improve heart function in people with heart failure and reduced pumping ability. It aims to see if blocking certain nerves can help you feel better and be more active.
Durham, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT06754475Recruiting
Low volume arm HIIT for heart failure patients
This trial tests if short, high-intensity arm exercises can help people with stable heart failure. It looks at safety and improvements in daily function.
Mersin, MersinAges 18 years+ - NCT06768437Recruiting
Heart fat and preserved ejection fraction heart failure trial
This study looks at whether fat around the heart affects a type of heart failure where the heart pumps well but is stiff (HFpEF). You may be able to join if you have this condition, are 18 or older, and can understand English.
Leicester, LeicestershireAges 18 years+ - NCT06803849Recruiting
Biomarkers and pregnancy history for heart failure prognosis
This study looks at whether certain substances in the blood and your history of pregnancy complications can help predict the course of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (a type of heart failure where the heart pumps well but doesn't relax properly). It may help doctors better understand and manage this condition in older women.
MoscowAges 60–74 - NCT06820099RecruitingPhase 2
A drug for heart failure with obesity
This trial tests an oral drug called HRS-7535 for people with a certain type of heart failure (where the heart pumps normally but doesn't relax properly) and who also have obesity. It aims to see if the drug can improve symptoms and daily function.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT07178145RecruitingPhase 4
Heart fat and heart failure with preserved pumping ability study
This study looks at fat around the heart in people with heart failure where the heart still pumps normally. It uses MRI scans to understand this fat better, and may help find new treatments.
Charlottesville, VirginiaAges 18–90 - NCT07291219Recruiting
Chronic heart failure patient registry study
This study creates a registry of people with chronic heart failure to track their health over time. It may help researchers learn more about the condition and improve future care.
Pavia, PaviaAges 18 years+ - NCT07321509RecruitingPhase 4
Digoxin after a recent heart failure hospitalization
This trial tests whether digoxin, a heart medication, can help people who were recently hospitalized for heart failure with a weak heart pump. It aims to see if it improves symptoms and daily activity.
Buenos Aires, Buenos Aires F.D.Ages 18–120 - NCT07379840Recruiting
Finerenone for chronic heart failure in South Korea
This trial tests how safe and effective finerenone is for adults with chronic heart failure. It includes people whose heart pumps blood with at least 40% efficiency.
Multiple LocationsAges 19 years+ - NCT03197350Recruiting
Study of heart failure with preserved pumping function
This study looks at people who have heart failure symptoms but whose heart pumping strength is not reduced. Researchers aim to better understand this type of heart failure and compare it with people who have no history of heart disease or heart failure.
BrusselsAges 18–99 - NCT03268135Recruiting
Study gene activity in people with heart failure or aortic stenosis
This trial looks at patterns in your blood or heart-related “gene activity” (transcriptome) after heart procedures. It may help doctors understand why some people with heart failure or aortic valve narrowing (stenosis) do better than others.
San Donato Milanese, MilanAges 40–75 - NCT07480915Recruiting
Heart failure risk after bypass surgery
This study looks at how to predict major heart problems in people with heart failure who are scheduled for bypass surgery (CABG). It aims to improve risk assessment before the procedure.
Tomsk, Tomsk OblastAges Any age - NCT07496372RecruitingPhase 3
Stem cell injection for advanced heart failure
This trial tests a treatment made from stem cells that are turned into heart muscle cells and injected directly into the heart. It is for people with advanced heart failure who are already on the best available medicines and who are scheduled to have bypass surgery.
Tianjin, Tianjin MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT07560436RecruitingPhase 2
Stents for Heart Failure With Normal Pumping
This trial tests whether placing stents in coronary arteries helps patients with heart failure who still have a strong-pumping heart. The study aims to see if improving blood flow to the heart reduces symptoms and improves quality of life.
LondonAges 18 years+ - NCT07217366Enrolling by invitation
Speech-to-text tool for heart failure patients
This study tests a speech-to-text tool to help people with heart failure report their symptoms and health information more easily. It aims to see if using voice instead of typing can improve data collection.

Pulsed field ablation for heart failure with preserved pumping strength
This trial tests a new procedure called pulsed field ablation for people who have both persistent atrial fibrillation and a type of heart failure (HFpEF). It aims to see if this ablation safely helps control the heart rhythm.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for heart failure?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 984 recruiting 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 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 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.
