Filter by:The purpose of this open-label study is to collect additional safety information of sacubitril/valsartan and to provide post-trial access to sacubitril/valsartan for the eligible Japanese patients who completed CLCZ696B2319E1 study until marketed product of pediatric formulation, film-coated granules in capsule, is available in Japan.
This is an observational study in which only data are collected from participants receiving their usual treatment. The study is done in people with chronic heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). HFrEF is a long-term condition in which the heart does not pump blood as well as it should. Blood and fluid may collect in the lungs, blood vessels, and tissues causing shortness of breath or tiredness. Over time, heart failure can lead to other serious medical conditions that may result in hospital stays and death. The study treatment vericiguat works by increasing the activity of an enzyme called soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC). sGC helps to regulate the heart and blood circulation. Vericiguat has already been studied in previous clinical studies and is available for doctors to prescribe to people with heart failure. This study will collect important data from real-world setting in Korea. The participants of this study are people with HFrEF who will receive vericiguat as prescribed by their doctors according to the approved product information. The main purpose of this study is to learn more about how safe vericiguat is in the participants. To do this, researchers will collect data on all medical problems (also called adverse events) that the participants have during the study. Doctors keep track of all adverse events, even if they do not think they might be related to the study treatment. Further, researchers will collect data on how well vericiguat works and treatment patterns in the participants. For this, the following information will be collected: - occurrence of death due to heart and circulatory events - hospital stays due to heart conditions (failure) - dose levels of vericiguat and duration of treatment The data for this study will come from medical records and visits that take place in routine practice. Participants will be treated with vericiguat and observed up to 12 months or until death or they leave the study, whatever comes first.
The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and performance of the V-LAP System in subjects with New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional class II and III HF, irrespective of left ventricular ejection fraction.
Adaptation to the new health condition and self-care skills allow people to be able to adhere to the therapeutic treatment in the most correct way possible, but there are many cases in which subjects do not show adherence to it, and for this reason the risk increases to manifest acute complications and also to develop long-term ones
This is a multicenter, randomized, placebo- and active-controlled, parallel-group, 24-week trial to investigate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of XXB750 in participants with HFrEF/HFmrEF.
Heart failure (HF) is a systemic clinical syndrome defined as cardiac dysfunction, which causes inadequate blood supply to meet metabolic needs. One of the most expressive markers of HF is neurologic exacerbation, with expected sympathetic hyperactivation, increased activity of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system and elevation of vasopressin levels. These changes compensate the low cardiac output in the onset of ventricular dysfunction ensure a long term high blood perfusion pressure,though aggravate this dysfunction and contributes to the HF progression. There are evidences ofthe therapeutic effects of respiratory exercise techniques for HF patients. However, it demands new data for larger prescription and employment of these kind of exercises. Advanced technologies allowed the elaboration of the application for slow breathing CardioBreath. So far, it requires the possibility of comparison of their effects versus widely validated Inspiratory Muscle Trainig (IMT) on respiratory and cardiovascular outcomes in order to elucidate their specific benefits. In this way compare CardioBreath ® App versus IMT through a crossover randomized clinical trial design may elucidate the response effects of these interventions in these patients.
To evaluate the efficacy of SGLT2 inhibitors on left ventricular global longitudinal strain and diastology parameters among diabetic and non-diabetic patients with chronic heart failure
Rationale: Obesity prevalence in Dutch adults increased to 14.2% in 2020. Obesity is strongly associated with cardiovascular disease, especially heart failure (HF). HF is a serious condition with significant morbidity and mortality. HF in people with obesity often remains undetected for a relatively long time, because symptoms are attributed to the obesity and not to possible HF. As a result, individuals seek help late for already advanced HF. Screening may reveal HF risk factors or a HF diagnosis. Early treatment initiation will improve prognosis, both in terms of quality of life and morbidity and mortality. Objective: To investigate whether active screening for early signs of HF and its risk factors in adults with obesity without known heart disease improves clinical outcome. Study design: Investigator driven, not blinded, randomized controlled superiority trial. Study population: Consecutive individuals with obesity (body mass index ≥30 kg/m2) ≥ 45 years, without known cardiac disease, who sign up to participate in a Combined Lifestyle Intervention program, will be recruited. Intervention: Participant randomized to the intervention will undergo an active screening on HF and its risk factors, using anamnesis, physical examination, an electrocardiogram, blood tests and an echocardiogram. Main study parameters/endpoints: The main study endpoint is a combined endpoint of left ventricular dysfunction and/or HF.
More than 30% of people hospitalized with decompensated heart failure return to the hospital within 90 days. Emerging evidence suggests that hemodynamic monitoring with guided management may enhance prognosis and management. Hemodynamic monitoring with echocardiography using diastology and an evidence-informed therapeutic protocol have the potential to achieve this aim in a minimally invasive manner.
The purpose of this research study is to determine the effectiveness of low dose colchicine (LoDoCo) on measures of exercise capacity, physical function, frailty, and quality of life, among patients with heart failure with chronic stable preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) and systemic inflammation. The use of LoDoCo in this study is considered investigational as it has not been approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of exercise capacity in patients with HFpEF. Participants will undergo a 1-day screening that includes a blood draw and physical examination. If deemed eligible for the study, participants will undergo a baseline visit within 2 weeks of screening visit that includes physical examination, exercise testing, echocardiography and completion of quality-of-life surveys. Participants will also be randomized at this visit (randomly assigned to a group) to receive either LoDoCo or placebo (inactive substance) for 3 months. Participants will be called back at 3 months for repeat physical examination, blood draws, echocardiography, exercise testing and completion of quality-of-life surveys. Each visit will take about 3 hours. Total study duration is about 3 months.
