About this study

Official title: A Phase 1b Double-blind, Randomized, Placebo-controlled, Multicenter, Dose Titration Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, and Pharmacokinetics of 4 Weeks Treatment With BAY 2413555 in Participants With Heart Failure and Implanted Cardiac Defibrillator or Cardiac Resynchronization Devices

Researchers are looking for a better way to treat people who have chronic heart failure. Chronic heart failure is a medical condition with shortness of breath, tiredness and ankle swelling in which the heart does not pump blood as well as it should.

BAY2413555 is a new compound which is under development for the treatment of heart failure. Heart failure is a serious disease in which the heart pumps less well. BAY2413555 is expected to protect the heart and improve cardiac function.

The main purpose of this study is to learn how safe BAY2413555 is compared to placebo in participants with chronic heart failure and implanted cardiac defibrillator, or cardiac resynchronization devices (ICD/CRT). A placebo is a treatment that looks like a medicine, but does not have any medicine in it. ICD/CRT are machines placed in the body that use an electric shock/impulse to reset the heart or get it beating correctly. To study the safety, the researchers will record all medical problems the participants may have during the study after starting the study treatment. Medical problems that happen after the participants have started their treatment are also known as "treatment emergent adverse events" (TEAEs). The TEAEs will be compared between participants who received BAY2413555 and those who received placebo.

The second purpose of this study is to learn whether BAY2413555 effects electrical signals inside the heart compared to placebo.

The study has two parts, A and B. Each part will last for two weeks. In part A, the participants will be assigned by chance to either take BAY2413555 as a tablet by mouth once per day or a placebo. Participants from part A who do not need to stop the study based on predefined criteria continue in part B. They will be assigned by chance to receive either the same dose of BAY2413555 as in part A or a higher dose. Participants who have taken placebo in part A will as well be assigned in part B.

Each participant will be in the study for approximately 90 days (including the screening period and follow-up period). In the study, participants will take study medication for 28 days. 8 visits to the study site and 1 telephone contact visit are planned. During the study, the study team will:

  • do physical examinations
  • check vital signs
  • examine heart health using ECG
  • check the participants' ICD/CRT information
  • take exercise testing
  • take blood and urine samples
  • ask the participants questions about how they are feeling about their quality of life
  • ask the participants questions about how they are feeling and what adverse events they are having. An adverse event is any problem that happens during the trial. Doctors keep track of all adverse events that happen in trials, even if they do not think the adverse events might be related to the study treatments or a study procedure. Participants will be closely monitored during the entire study duration and site personnel will take action to mitigate any negative effect, if any, as appropriate.

About 30 days after the participants take their last treatment, the study doctors and their team will check the participants' health.

Individual data sharing
No: Availability of this study's data will later be determined according to Bayer's commitment to the EFPIA/PhRMA "Principles for responsible clinical trial data sharing". This pertains to scope, timepoint and process of data access. As such, Bayer commits to sharing upon request from qualified researchers patient-level clinical trial data, study-level clinical trial data, and protocols from clinical trials in patients for medicines and indications approved in the US and EU as necessary for conducting legitimate research. This applies to data on new medicines and indications that have been approved by the EU and US regulatory agencies on or after January 01, 2014. Interested researchers can use www.vivli.org to request access to anonymized patient-level data and supporting documents from clinical studies to conduct research.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing BAY2413555 Dose 1 and BAY2413555 Dose 2 in people with Chronic Heart Failure, run by Bayer at 18 sites in 6 countries.

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 6 inclusion and 34 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 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 18 sites in Spain, United States, Denmark, Israel, Italy and 1 more country. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 was stopped early (reason given: Due to new preclinical findings in a chronic toxicology 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?

Number of participants with treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) (time frame: Up to 56 days). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 12 Mar 2024.
