About this study

Official title: Etiologic, Pathophysiologic, and Genetic Classification of Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction

The purpose of this study is to create a classification system for the heterogenous disorder of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF).

Read the detailed description

Patients with HFpEF are a heterogeneous group with varying etiology and pathophysiology, which may play a large role in the difficulty in managing these patients and enrolling them in clinical trials. A major advance in the care of patients with HFpEF would be a classification system based on etiology, pathophysiology, and/or genetic factors as well as machine learning analyses. The ultimate goal of this study is to demonstrate that it is possible to better classify patients with HFpEF based on etiologic, pathophysiologic, and genetic differences between patients. If successful, this study could lead to: (1) novel risk estimation in patients with HFpEF and (2) more fruitful clinical trials based on targeting specific subsets of HFpEF.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction and Diastolic Heart Failure, run by Northwestern University at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 May 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Heart failure hospitalization (time frame: 1 year). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01030991, which also lists 5 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 23 May 2019.
