简要总结
This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled two-part study with a multiple escalating dose phase followed by a cohort expansion phase to assess safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of AC01 in patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF).
详细描述
During the dose escalation phase, patients were given AC01 orally twice daily for seven days. In the cohort expansion phase, patients were given AC01 orally twice daily for 28 days at dose levels selected on the basis of results of the dose escalation phase.

入选标准
- •, Dose Escalation Phase:
- •Male and female out-patients of any ethnicity, between 18-80 years (inclusive), with stable HFrEF.
- •Chronic HF for at least 6 months duration defined by history with current NYHA class II-III severity.
- •LVEF ≤40% by TTE more than 6 months before screening and again at screening (screening measurement confirmed by echocardiography core lab).
- •Sinus rhythm with mean resting heart rate 55-90 bpm.

- •Screening measurement confirmed by core lab.
- •Transvenous ICD for primary prevention in place and active (as long as it is not subcutaneous).
- •Optimal guideline-based medical therapy for HFrEF as judged by the Investigator, at stable doses for ≥2 weeks with no intention to change dosing during trial duration.
排除标准
- •, Dose Escalation Phase:
- •Any cardiac rhythm that does or could interfere with ECG or TTE interpretation, including but not limited to permanent or persistent atrial fibrillation or flutter or paroxysmal atrial fibrillation or flutter with an episode in the last 3 months, frequent premature ventricular contractions, or atrial or ventricular pacing
