What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Coronary Sinus ReducerDevice

    Subjects will have the Coronary Sinus Reducer implanted in their coronary sinus during a right heart catheterization procedure.

Study groups in NCT07057323
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Heart failure with a preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF)ExperimentalSubjects with diagnosed Heart failure with a preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), non-obstructive Coronary Artery Disease (CAD), and have documented CMD.
Receives: Device: Coronary Sinus Reducer

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Change in Pulmonary Arterial Wedge Pressure (PAWP) at exercise

    Pulmonary Arterial Wedge Pressure (mmHg) is a measure of cardiac filling pressure. PAWP will be determined by a right heart catheterization at 20W exercise.

    Measured: Baseline, 6 months

Secondary outcomes (13)
  1. Change in Kansas City Cardiomyopathy (KCCQ-12)

    KCCQ is a 12-item questionnaires that measure the participant's perception of their health status, including their heart failure (HF) symptoms, impact on physical and social function and how their HF impacts the quality of life. Scores were generated for each domain and scaled from 0 to 70, with 0 (worst) and 70 (the best possible status), where the higher score reflected better health status.

    Measured: Baseline, 30 Days, 60 Days, 90 Days, 6 months

  2. Change in Seattle Angina Questionnaire (SAQ)

    Seattle Angina Questionnaire (SAQ) is a 19-item questionnaire that assesses 5 different scales: physical limitation, anginal stability, anginal frequency, treatment satisfaction, and disease perception. A higher score indicates a worse health status.

    Measured: Baseline, 30 Days, 60 Days, 90 Days, 6 months

  3. Change in New York Heart Association (NYHA) classification

    New York Heart Association (NYHA) classification is used to classify patients into 4 categories based on their Heart Failure Symptoms. There are 4 classifications (1-4), a higher classification indicates a higher severity of Heart Failure symptoms.

    Measured: Baseline, 6 months

  4. Change in Canadian Cardiovascular Society (CCS)

    Canadian Cardiovascular Society (CCS) is a classification system (1-4) used to determine severity of angina pectoris. A higher classification indicates higher severity of angina pectoris.

    Measured: Baseline, 30 Days, 60 Days, 90 Days, 6 months

  5. Change in Borg maximal perceived exertion scores

    Borg CR10 Scale is a scale that ranges from 0-12. It is used to determine maximal perceived exertion. This will be measured at exercise during a right heart catheterization.

    Measured: Baseline, 6 months

  6. Change in maximum exercise capacity (VO2 max) during supine exercise testing

    Maximum exercise capacity (VO2 max) is the maximum oxygen absorbed during exercise. VO2 max will be determined at exercise during right heart catheterization and measured in ml/kg/min.

    Measured: Baseline, 6 months

  7. Change in transcardiac lactate release

    Transcardiac lactate release will be determined by blood sample and measured in mmol/L.

    Measured: Baseline, 6 months

  8. Change in transcardiac lactate uptake

    Transcardiac lactate uptake will be determined by blood sample and measured in mmol/L.

    Measured: Baseline, 6 months

  9. Change in Pulmonary Arterial Wedge Pressure (PAWP) at rest

    Pulmonary Arterial Wedge Pressure (mmHg) is a measure of cardiac filling pressure. PAWP will be determined by a right heart catheterization at rest.

    Measured: Baseline, 6 months

  10. Change in Pulmonary Arterial Pressure at rest

    Pulmonary Arterial Pressure is the measure of pressure that the heart uses to pump blood from the heart to the lungs. Pulmonary Arterial Pressure will be determined by a right heart catheterization at rest and measured in mmHg.

    Measured: Baseline, 6 months

  11. Change in Pulmonary Arterial Pressure at exercise

    Pulmonary Arterial Pressure is the measure of pressure that the heart uses to pump blood from the heart to the lungs. Pulmonary Arterial Pressure will be determined by a right heart catheterization at exercise and measured in mmHg.

    Measured: Baseline, 6 months

  12. Cardiac output

    Cardiac output (L/min) is the total volume of blood moved by the heart per minute. Cardiac output is measured during right heart catheterization at exercise using the Fick method.

    Measured: Baseline, 6 months

  13. Change in Right Atrial Pressure

    Right Atrial Pressure is the blood pressure in the right atrium.

    Measured: Baseline, 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Coronary Sinus Reducer in people with Heart Failure Preserved Ejection Fraction, run by Mayo Clinic 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 4 inclusion and 22 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: enrolling by invitation, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Aug 2026. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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?

Change in Pulmonary Arterial Wedge Pressure (PAWP) at exercise (time frame: Baseline, 6 months). 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 5 Aug 2026.
