About this study

Official title: Enavogliflozin for the Management of Patients With Amyloid CardiomyopaThy - A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Crossover, Multicenter Trial

This study aims to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of Enavogliflozin 0.3 mg, an SGLT2 inhibitor, in patients with amyloid cardiomyopathy. Participants will take both the study drug and a placebo in two separate periods, with a wash-out period in between. The goal is to determine whether Enavogliflozin is safe and effective for treating amyloid cardiomyopathy.

Read the detailed description

Patients with a confirmed diagnosis of cardiac amyloidosis and symptomatic heart failure (NYHA class II-III) will be recruited.

Participants will be randomized to receive either the study drug or placebo and will undergo baseline and 12-week assessments, including the Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire (KCCQ), 6-minute walk test, and cardiopulmonary exercise testing. Following a 4-week washout period, participants will cross over to the alternate treatment arm (study drug or placebo) and repeat the same assessments at baseline and 12 weeks.

The primary endpoint will be the change in KCCQ Clinical Summary Score (KCCQ-CSS).

What participants receive

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

  • Enavogliflozin 0.3mgDrug

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in KCCQ-CSS from baseline to Week 12

    Change in the Clinical Summary Score of the Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire (KCCQ-CSS) from baseline to 12 weeks after treatment initiation.

    The KCCQ-CSS is a patient-reported outcome measure that assesses symptom frequency and physical limitation in patients with heart failure.

    Scores range from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating better symptom status and physical function (i.e., better health status).

    A higher change from baseline reflects an improvement in clinical status.

    Measured: Baseline and Week 12

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Change in 6-Minute Walk Distance

    Change in distance walked in 6 minutes from baseline to Week 12. Higher distance indicates better exercise capacity.

    Measured: Baseline and Week 12

  2. Change in log-transformed NT-proBNP levels

    Change in log-transformed NT-proBNP levels after 12 weeks of treatment compared to baseline

    Measured: Baseline and Week 12

  3. Change in Body Weight

    Change in body weight in kilograms from baseline to Week 12

    Measured: Baseline and Week 12

  4. Change in Body Fat Percentage

    Change in body fat percentage from baseline to Week 12

    Measured: Baseline and Week 12

  5. Change in Extracellular Water Ratio

    Change in the ratio of extracellular water to total body water from baseline to Week 12

    Measured: Baseline and Week 12

  6. Incidence of Worsening Heart Failure Events or Death

    Occurrence of worsening heart failure events (defined as emergency outpatient visit or unplanned hospitalization due to heart failure) or death

    Measured: From baseline to Week 12 during each treatment period (excluding the 4-week washout period)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Enavogliflozin 0.3mg in people with Amyloid Cardiomyopathy, run by Seoul St. Mary's Hospital at 2 sites in South Korea.

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 17 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Jun 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in South Korea. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

Contact Jong-Chan Youn, MD, PhD (82-2-3147-9853, jong.chan.youn@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change in KCCQ-CSS from baseline to Week 12 (time frame: Baseline and Week 12). 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 NCT07240844, which also lists 2 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 18 Jun 2026.
