Recruiting studies
- NCT07145138Recruiting
Multi-ethnic dilated cardiomyopathy registry
This study is a registry for people with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM)—a condition where the heart's main pumping chamber becomes enlarged and weak. It aims to learn more about DCM, especially in people from different ethnic backgrounds, by collecting health information over time.

Tailored exercise training for heart failure with preserved pumping strength
This trial tests a personalized exercise program to help people with a type of heart failure called HFpEF. You may qualify if your heart still pumps well but you have trouble being active, and you are willing to use a phone app and exercise regularly.
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07237451Recruiting
Heart and kidney study of SGLT2 inhibitors
This study looks at whether a type of diabetes medicine called SGLT2 inhibitors (also known as flozins) can help protect the heart and kidneys in people with both heart failure with preserved pumping function and moderate chronic kidney disease, with or without diabetes.
IașiAges 18 years+ - NCT07245069RecruitingPhase 2
Can dapagliflozin protect the heart during breast cancer chemo?
This trial tests if the drug dapagliflozin can prevent heart damage caused by anthracycline chemotherapy in breast cancer patients. It aims to see if taking the drug during chemo helps keep your heart healthy.
LjubljanaAges 18 years+ - NCT07516288RecruitingPhase 1
Second CAR-DC Cell Infusion for Advanced Heart Failure
This trial tests a second dose of specialized immune cells (called CAR-DC) in patients with severe dilated cardiomyopathy (a weakened heart muscle) who received one dose before but saw their heart function decline back to baseline. The goal is to see if a second dose is safe and can improve heart function when the first treatment's benefits wore off.
Hangzhou, Zhejiang / 浙江Ages 18–75 - NCT07269366Recruiting
Surgery vs stents for heart disease with weak heart pump
This trial compares two ways to restore blood flow to the heart—bypass surgery (CABG) or stents (PCI)—in people whose heart pumps weakly (LVEF 40% or less). It aims to find which method works better for chest pain or recent heart issues.
GroningenAges 18 years+ - NCT07273838RecruitingPhase 2
SGLT2 inhibitor for acute heart and kidney failure
This study tests whether a medicine called an SGLT2 inhibitor (which lowers blood sugar and helps the kidneys) can improve outcomes for people with acute heart failure and kidney problems. Participation involves taking the study drug or a placebo for a short time.
New Haven, ConnecticutAges 18–85 - NCT07281014RecruitingPhase 4
Testing a different approach to heart failure medication
This trial is for people with stable, mild heart failure. It tests a new way of using a standard medicine (spironolactone) to see if it works better at a different dose. The study lasts 8 weeks.
New Haven, ConnecticutAges 18 years+ - NCT07304817RecruitingPhase 2
Comparing two heart and kidney medicines in heart failure
This study tests if a new medicine (vicadrostat) works differently than an older one (spironolactone) in people with heart failure or heart disease and reduced kidney function. It aims to understand how they affect proteins in the blood and kidney blood flow.
Groningen, Provincie GroningenAges 18 years+ - NCT07344480Recruiting
Study on heart disease in children with RASopathy
This study looks at medical records of children with a genetic condition called RASopathy who developed thickened heart muscle and needed hospital care for heart failure in their first six months of life. The goal is to understand how the heart condition progresses over time.
MünchenAges Any age - NCT06965621RecruitingPhase 2
Heart Nerve Imaging in Heart Failure with ICD
This study uses a special imaging agent (18F-mFBG) to take pictures of the nerves in your heart. It aims to better understand heart function in people with heart failure and an ICD.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06299514Recruiting
Pacemaker and ablation for heart failure with atrial fibrillation
This trial tests if a pacemaker plus an ablation procedure can improve heart failure symptoms in people with atrial fibrillation. It is for those with moderate to severe heart failure who are already on the right medications.

Iron Infusions for Heart Failure and Iron Deficiency
This trial tests whether intravenous iron infusions can help people with heart failure (preserved ejection fraction) who also have low iron levels. The goal is to improve symptoms, quality of life, and how far you can walk.
Saint HelierAges 18 years+ - NCT07347925Recruiting
Study of heart failure medicine before hospital
This trial tests if a specific heart failure pill, started before hospital care, helps improve short-term outcomes in people with weak heart muscles. It is for patients with a low pumping ability of the heart.

Left bundle branch pacing after myectomy for hypertrophic cardiomyopathy
This trial is testing a new way to pace the heart (left bundle branch pacing) for people with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy who still have a dangerous heart rhythm problem after myectomy surgery. It aims to see if this pacing can reduce the risk of sudden cardiac death.
Novosibirsk, Novosibirsk OblastAges 18–75 - NCT07385417Recruiting
Early AF treatment for heart failure with preserved pumping function
This study tests using a new electrical pulse treatment for atrial fibrillation (AF) early on, in people who also have a type of heart failure where the heart pumps normally but is stiff. The goal is to see if this treatment helps manage both conditions better.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for heart failure?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 981 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.
