Testing heart-related blood markers in people with diabetes and heart failure
Treatments studied
Part of Heart & circulation, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study looks for blood markers that may help explain or predict heart problems in people who have type 2 diabetes and heart failure. To join, you may also need to be having a planned heart procedure where doctors can collect study information.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a plan for a heart procedure (like CRT device placement, an electrophysiology study, or pulmonary vein ablation) that matches clinical guidelines
- You are an adult and can understand and follow study instructions
- You can sign written consent to take part
- You do not have severe anemia (hemoglobin below 8 mg/dL)
- You do not have a current serious infection (like pneumonia) and you are not dealing with an urgent heart event
- You are medically able for the study heart access needed (including access to the subclavian vein and an intubatable coronary sinus)

This study looks at how the heart uses energy fuel in people with heart failure, including those with type 2 diabetes. It may help researchers understand what’s going on inside the heart and how it could be treated in the future.
This study looks at how heart muscle strength changes in people with heart failure and/or diabetes. Researchers will use a pacemaker to safely measure tiny changes in heart function.
This study looks for blood and other markers that can explain how people with heart failure respond to exercise training. It may help researchers better tailor exercise or treatment plans for heart failure in the future.
This study is looking for people who have had a heart attack or have heart failure to discover new markers in your blood that could help doctors better understand and treat heart disease. By collecting samples and health data, researchers hope to find clues that improve care for future patients.
This study tests a new heart scan method to help doctors improve pacemaker treatment for people with heart failure. If you already qualify for a special pacemaker called CRT, this scan may make the treatment work better for you.
This study looks for early, “silent” changes in heart function in adults with type 2 diabetes, even if you feel okay. It uses heart scans and looks for factors that may help explain why these changes happen.
