- LVEF ≤35% by 2-D echocardiogram.
- Diagnosis of NYHA Class II or III HF for a minimum of 6 months prior to the Screening Visit.
- HF is considered to be stable and no hospitalization for HF has occurred within the previous 3 months prior to the Screening visit.
- Treatment with appropriate pharmacologic therapy for HF including, but not limited to, angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI) and/or angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB), and an evidence-based beta blocker for the treatment of HF (i.e. carvedilol, bisoprolol, or extended-release metoprolol).

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1 study testing MTP-131 in people with Congestive Heart Failure, run by Stealth BioTherapeutics Inc. at 1 site in Bulgaria.
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 7 inclusion and 16 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 17 Sep 2015. 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 Bulgaria. 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.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
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?
Incidence of Adverse Events (time frame: Assessed up to Day 7). 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 NCT02388464, which also lists 1 linked publication.
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 17 Sep 2015; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
