Active clinical trials for "Heart Failure"

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the impact of genetic variations on the response to candesartan in patients with heart failure who are already treated with an ACE inhibitor.

Prospective, randomized, double blind study investigating the efficacy of levosimendan in heart failure after cardiac surgery. Study hypothesis: Levosimendan diminishes the need for adrenergic inotropic drugs and morbidity and may improve survival after heart valve surgery.

This study will look at how a single dose of study medication (tolvaptan) versus an inactive sugar pill (placebo) effect pressures in the heart in patients with congestive heart failure. Higher than normal pressures can be related to symptoms of heart failure (shortness of breath, fatigue, etc.).

Whether patients with chronic heart failure (CHF) should be anticoagulated is one of the oldest unresolved questions in cardiovascular therapeutics. Some authorities do not recommend anticoagulation for CHF patients in sinus rhythm, others recommend anticoagulation in patients with primary cardiomyopathy, and still others consider it more appropriate in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). This absence of consensus reflects the lack of evidence in this area and different outlooks on the objectives of such therapy (e.g., prevention of arterial emboli or reduction in vascular events).

This is an investigational study of experimental Medication BMS-986231 given to participants with weakened or damaged liver function.

To determine biomarker responses to Entresto™in patients with Heart Failure with preserved Ejection Fraction (HFpEF) and who have high or low serum neprilysin (NEP) levels.

The objective of this feasibility study is to characterize the performance of the Aquadex FlexFlow® System with the hematocrit (HCT) feature in conjunction with Daxor's blood volume analyzer (BVA-100). The study will monitor blood volume changes during ultrafiltration (UF) therapy as a potential means to guide the removal of fluid in subjects hospitalized with acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF).

To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the MDT-1118 VAD in a patient population for destination therapy (long term support) of advanced heart failure. The collected data will be used to support Japan regulatory application in expanding market approval for destination therapy.

Main Objective of this study is to compare the single intravenous (IV) infusion pharmacokinetics (PK) of BMS-986231 and its metabolites (BMT-284730, BMT-279554, and CAR-000463) following of up to 2 test formulations of BMS-986231 relative to the reference formulation.

International, Multicentre, Parallel-group, Randomised, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Phase III Study Evaluating the effect of Dapagliflozin on Exercise Capacity in Heart Failure Patients with Reduced Ejection Fraction (HFrEF)
