About this trial

The main purpose of this study is to assess how well LY3971297 is tolerated and what side effects may occur in participants with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) and participants with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). Blood tests will be performed to investigate how the body processes the study drug and how the study drug affects the body. For each participant, the study will last about 2 months and will include 1 inpatient visit lasting approximately 4 days and 5 outpatient visits.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Are diagnosed with chronic heart failure with New York Heart Association Class II-III (Heart Failure) HF symptomatology at screening and on guideline-directed HF therapy for at least 6 months prior to screening.

Have not changed optimal guideline-directed HF therapy, either medication or medication dose, in the last 4 weeks prior to screening and during screening period, and do not plan to change HF therapy for the next 90 days.

Must be on a stable dose of vasodilator therapy for at least 4 weeks prior to screening, with no dose adjustments planned during the study.

Have an estimated glomerular filtration rate of greater than or equal to (≥) 30 milliliter per minute per 1.73 square meters (mL/Minute/1.73m²) at screening.

Disqualifiers

Have known allergies to related compounds of LY3971297 or any components of the formulation, or a history of significant atopy.

Had a myocardial infarction, unstable angina pectoris, coronary artery bypass graft surgery, revascularization or other major cardiovascular surgery, stroke, or transient ischemic attack in the last 90 days prior to screening.

Have New York Heart Association (NYHA) Class 4, acute decompensated HF (exacerbation of HF) requiring IV diuretics, IV inotropes, or IV vasodilators, within 30 days prior to screening, and/or during screening period until randomization.

Have SBP ≥180 mmHg at screening.
