Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>The primary endpoints of the study are the following:<br /><br>the ratio E/e*, measured on echocardiography,<br /><br>the 6-minute walk test,<br /><br>NT-proBNP plasma level.</p><br>
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>The secondary objectives are:<br /><br>-to evaluate the effects of ivabradine compared to placebo on:<br /><br>• cardiac function and structural parameters,<br /><br>• quality of life,<br /><br>• NYHA classification,<br /><br>• other biomarkers (including optional microRNA),<br /><br>-and to evaluate the safety and tolerance profile of ivabradine compared to<br /><br>placebo.</p><br>
