Overview

Brief Summary

This study will be conducted in subjects with clinical diagnosis of worsening chronic heart failure and either type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) with or without chronic kidney disease (CKD) or moderate CKD alone treated with evidence-based therapy for heart failure (HF) for at least 3 months prior to emergency presentation to hospital using a multi-center, randomized, adaptive, double-blind, double-dummy, comparator-controlled, parallel-group design.

Primary objective of the study is to investigate efficacy [percentage of subjects with a relative decrease in N-terminal prohormone B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) of more than 30% from baseline to Visit 10 (Day 90)] and safety of different oral doses of BAY94-8862 given once daily.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • Subjects with worsening chronic heart failure requiring emergency presentation to hospital and treatment with intravenous (IV) diuretics at hospital
  • Subjects with either type 2 DM or moderate CKD

Exclusion Criteria

  • Acute de-novo heart failure or acute inflammatory heart disease, e.g. acute myocarditis
  • Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) (elevated cardiac troponins which are not caused by an ACS are not an exclusion criterion) in the last 30 days prior to the screening visit
  • Cardiogenic shock
  • Valvular heart disease requiring surgical intervention during the course of the study
  • Subjects with left ventricular assistance device or waiting for heart transplantation
  • Stroke or transient ischemic cerebral attack in the last 3 months prior to the screening visit
  • Addison's disease
