Tests treatment safety and results for Heart Failure
Official title A Study to Evaluate Finerenone on Clinical Efficacy and Safety in Patients With Heart Failure Who Are Intolerant or Not Eligible for Treatment With Steroidal Mineralocorticoid Receptor Antagonists
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06033950
What this study is testing
What is Finerenone?
Finerenone is an investigational medicine, given as a pill taken by mouth, being studied as a potential treatment for heart failure.
Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
- Finerenone will be compared to placebo to determine efficacy and safety of treatment in patients with heart failure and reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) who are intolerant or ineligible to receive treatment with steroidal mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (sMRA).
- Phase 3: a large, late-stage study
- You might receive a placebo (an inactive treatment) instead of the study drug, decided by chance. You may not know which one you got.
