Bozhou, AnhuiAges 18–80 - NCT07657650Recruiting
Imaging test for heart failure patients before revascularization
This trial uses a special imaging scan to see if heart muscle has damage from blocked arteries. It helps doctors decide if a procedure to open blocked arteries might improve your heart function.
BeijingAges 18 years+ - NCT07631156RecruitingPhase 4
Safely Reducing Heart Failure Medications After Recovery
This study tests whether patients whose heart function has fully recovered after surgery or a heart procedure can safely reduce or stop their heart failure medications. Researchers will carefully monitor whether gradually lowering these medicines is safe and maintains heart health.
Daegu, DaeguAges 19 years+ - NCT04441203Recruiting
Virtual clinic for managing heart failure at home
This trial tests a virtual “heart failure clinic” and home heart monitoring to help people manage symptoms and outcomes. It may help by catching problems earlier and guiding safer self-care between doctor visits.
Montreal, QuebecAges 18 years+ - NCT06556485Recruiting
Early ablation for heart failure patients with heart pumps or on transplant list
This trial tests whether doing a catheter ablation early (before dangerous heart rhythms start) can help people with severe heart failure who need a heart transplant or already have an ICD. The goal is to see if this can improve outcomes.
Bad OeynhausenAges 18–99 - NCT07547540RecruitingPhase 1
Study of an investigational drug for heart failure
This study tests an experimental drug called LY3971297 to see if it can help people with chronic heart failure. It aims to find out if the drug is safe and if it improves heart function.
Detroit, MichiganAges 18–65 - NCT07518030Recruiting
Telemedicine support for heart failure medication adjustment
This study tests whether remote check-ins via phone or video can help safely increase heart failure medications to target doses. You'll use a device to share weight, blood pressure, and heart rate with your doctor, who will adjust your medicines based on how you're doing.
PiacenzaAges 18 years+ - NCT07443696RecruitingPhase 2
Heart imaging test to see if bypass surgery could help
This study uses two imaging scans to see if parts of your heart muscle are still alive but not working well. This could help doctors decide if you might benefit from heart bypass surgery.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–85 - NCT07442448Enrolling by invitationPhase 4
Study of Finerenone for heart and kidney health in diabetes
This trial tests a medication called Finerenone to see if it can improve heart structure and function in people with both diabetic kidney disease and heart failure. If you have type 2 diabetes, kidney problems, and heart failure with preserved pumping function, this study may explore a new treatment option for you.
