Study Overview

Brief Summary

Finerenone will be compared to placebo to determine efficacy and safety of treatment in patients with heart failure and reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) who are intolerant or ineligible to receive treatment with steroidal mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (sMRA).

Detailed Description

This is an international, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial of finerenone for the treatment of heart failure patients with reduced ejection fraction.

Inclusion Criteria

  • Provide electronic or written informed consent, either personally or through a legally authorized representative, as permitted by local regulations
  • Age ≥18 years or legal age of majority if >18 years in the participant's country of residence
  • Symptomatic HFrEF per protocol defined criteria
  • Not on sMRA due to history of intolerance, contraindication, or ineligibility for treatment

Exclusion Criteria

  • Treatment with non-steroidal MRA (nsMRA)

  • Prior or planned heart transplant
  • Hemodynamically significant (severe) uncorrected primary cardiac valvular disease considered by the investigator to be the primary cause of heart failure
  • Symptomatic bradycardia or second- or third-degree heart block without a pacemaker
  • Cardiomyopathy due to known acute inflammatory heart disease, infiltrative diseases, accumulation diseases, muscular dystrophies, cardiomyopathy with reversible causes, hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy, complex congenital heart disease, or pericardial constriction
  • Probable alternative cause of participant's HF
  • Concomitant systemic therapy with potent cytochrome P450 isoenzyme 3A4 (CYP3A4) inhibitors, or moderate or potent CYP3A4 inducers
  • Known hypersensitivity to the IP (active substance or excipients)
  • Any other condition or therapy which would make the participant unsuitable for the study
  • Concurrent or previous participation in another interventional clinical study using an investigational agent within 30 days prior to randomization
