Participating in a clinical trial can offer several benefits:

                • Closer Monitoring: Participants often receive more frequent and detailed medical attention.

                • Contribution to Medicine: Participants in clinical trials help advance medical research and potentially benefit others in the future.

                • Access to New Treatments: You might gain access to new therapies before they are widely available.

                It is important to consult with your healthcare provider to determine if a clinical trial is right for you and to discuss potential benefits.

Current Trials:

HERMES

Do you have a diagnosis of heart failure, had an Echocardiogram in the last 12 months and are you 18 years or older?
HERMES is a trial of ziltivekimab, a drug to target inflammation, for patients with heart failure (HF) and reduced or preserved ejection fraction. Ziltivekimab may help:
- Decrease the risk of cardiovascular events.
- Improve heart function.
- Enhance overall quality of life for patients with HF.

FINALITY-HF

Are you 18 years or older and hospitalized or recently discharged with a primary diagnosis of heart failure showing signs and symptoms of heart failure at the time of hospital admission??
Do you have mildly reduced or preserved ejection fraction EF (40% or higher)?

FINALITY-HF trial aims to test the effectiveness and safety of a drug called finerenone in patients with heart failure who have a mildly reduced or preserved heart function (40% or higher) in patients hospitalized due to an episode of Heart Failure.
Participants will be monitored for changes in their heart function and overall health.
The main goals are to see if finerenone can reduce future heart failure, cardiovascular events and hospitalizations.
