Heart failure subtype study with multi-omics and clinical data
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study is testing whether combining heart health data, blood and stool samples can help tell different types of heart failure apart and predict how they progress. It involves people with chronic heart failure and healthy volunteers to compare.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with chronic heart failure (based on current European guidelines) and are between 18 and 80 years old.
- Or, if you are a healthy volunteer, you have no history of heart disease and are between 18 and 80 years old.
- You must be able to provide consent (if thinking is impaired, a legal guardian can do it, and you must score 24 or above on a memory test).
- You cannot have had acute heart failure in the 72 hours before the study starts.
- You must not have advanced kidney failure (eGFR below 15), active cancer, severe liver disease, or active autoimmune disease.
- You cannot have taken antibiotics within 2 weeks before the study, and you must be able to provide blood and stool samples and complete a 12-month follow-up.

This study looks at people with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) who are treated at a health unit in Portugal. It uses health records, and some people may be asked to do an exercise test to learn more about different types of HFpEF and how to better manage it.
This study looks at people with a type of heart failure where the heart pumps normally but still doesn't fill properly. Researchers are using ultrasound pictures of the heart (echocardiograms) and blood tests to better understand this condition and find better ways to treat it.
This trial studies people who have heart failure symptoms but whose heart pumping strength is largely preserved. It aims to better understand this specific type of heart failure and how best to treat or evaluate it.
This study looks at how metabolic changes, diet, and lifestyle patterns affect heart failure. It may help find ways to improve symptoms and health by targeting diet and daily habits.
This trial is a registry that will follow people with different types of chronic heart failure to better understand how heart health and metabolism are linked. It may help doctors improve care for future patients.
This study uses simple heart tests and blood markers to sort people with chronic heart failure into different risk levels, which may help guide treatment. You may join if you have heart failure symptoms and certain test findings.
