About this study

Official title: Redefining the Phenotypic Spectrum of Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction (HFpEF) by Deep Phenotyping and Machine Learning Methods: The PACIFIC-PRESERVED Study (PhenomApping, ClassIFication, and Innovation for Cardiac Dysfunction - HF With PRESERVED LVEF Study)

This is a prospective multicenter study to decipher phenotypic variability within patients with heart failure and preserved left ventricular ejection fraction (HFpEF). From a registry of heart failure patients (2500 anticipated) hospitalized in the participating centers in the last 3 years, up to 300 participants (with a final ratio of 3 HFpEF patients, 2 patients with heart failure and reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) and 1 matched subjects without heart failure will be enrolled for an extensive phenotyping with physical evaluation, biomarkers and omics, cardiac and vascular imaging and telemonitoring of cardiovascular parameters. Cluster analysis with machine learning methods will be performed to define phenogroups unique to the HFpEF patient population.

Read the detailed description

Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is a complex and prevalent syndrome with currently no efficient therapy. This syndrome is likely explained by different pathophysiological inputs leading to common symptoms of heart failure. These pathophysiological abnormalities can primarily involve the heart but also other organs with secondary impact on the myocardium. There is however no clear understanding and diagnostic algorithms of the different HFpEF subpopulations. Novel mathematical methods (such as machine learning) can help identifying clusters within an heterogeneous population such as HFpEF patients.

A registry (2500 anticipated) will be constituted with patients hospitalized for congestive heart failure in the participating centers during the last 3 years. From this registry, up to 500 patients will be invited to visit in the hospital for 8-10 hours for physical examination, ECG, performance-based tests, blood draw, cMRI, echocardiography (rest and low-level exercise), Ultrafast echo (for non-invasive measurement of myocardial stiffness), low radiation cardiac CT (for calcium scoring), non-invasive measurement of arterial stiffness. They will be asked to fill out questionnaires about dyspnea, depression and about general health and quality of life. They will then be equipped with a smart connected garment (with cardiovascular \& hemodynamic sensors), a connected weight balance and a blood pressure monitoring device for telemonitoring collection of cardiovascular hemodynamic parameters in real-life conditions (for 14 days).

Patients included in the registry will be followed-up for 3 years using medico-administrative databases and vital status, cardiovascular and heart failure outcomes will be collected.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 24 inclusion and 27 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Mar 2024. 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 France. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Machine learning algorithm to identify distinct phenotypic subgroups among HFpEF patients (time frame: 14 days). 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 NCT04189029, which also lists 30 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 28 Mar 2024.
