  2. EXercise and Activin Inhibition to Modulate InflammatioN Effects on Heart Failure and Cognition (EXAMINE-HFC)

    The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if therapy with activin ligand-trap biological therapy (an investigational drug) combined with exercise training can improve exercise capacity and cognitive function in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). The main questions it aims to …

  3. HeartShare: Combining Omics, Deep Phenotyping, and Electronic Health Records for Heart Failure Subtypes and Treatment Targets

    HeartShare is a comprehensive study of heart failure, a common and serious medical condition which occurs when the heart is unable to keep up with the demands of the body, resulting in shortness of breath, fluid retention, and fatigue. HeartShare aims to better classify heart failure into subtypes …

  4. Myocardial Mechanisms in Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction

    The purpose of this study is to identify changes in heart tissue structure and biological function in patients with heart failure by performing an endomyocardial biopsy (EMB or heart biopsy) during a right heart catheterization (RHC). The ultimate goal is to use this information to develop new trea…

  5. Purinergic Signaling and the Postmenopausal Heart

    There is an increased risk of diastolic heart failure in post menopausal women. Estrogen plays a positive role in regulating molecular pathways in heart remodeling. Such pathways may work through purinergic signaling and its downstream effects on the heart's mitochondrial metabolism and angiogenic …

  6. Spironolactone Initiation Registry Randomized Interventional Trial in Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction

    Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFPEF) is common and deadly but without therapy. Inconclusive studies such as TOPCAT (Treatment of Preserved Cardiac Function Heart Failure With an Aldosterone Antagonist) suggest spironolactone may be effective in HFPEF, but it is generic and will no…

How to read this page. Every study here comes from ClinicalTrials.gov, the public registry that research teams are required to file with. We have summarised each one in plain language and shown where it is running. We have not changed what any study says it is doing.

What TrialBoost is. We help people find research that might suit them, and, if they ask us to, we pass their details to the research team running it. We are not a doctor, a research site, or a study sponsor, and we do not decide who takes part in anything. Joining costs nothing and you can change your mind at any point.

Paid placement. Some studies pay us when someone asks to be connected to them. Those are labelled Sponsored wherever they appear, and they only appear when they match what you were actually looking for.
