About this trial

The purpose of this study is to find out if the investigational drug called omecamtiv mecarbil can reduce the risk of the effects of heart failure, like hospitalization, transplantation, or death in patients with heart failure and severely reduced ejection fraction.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Are between ≥ 18 years and ≤ 85 years at the signing of informed consent

Have a history of chronic HFrEF, defined as requiring treatment for HF for a minimum of 3 months prior to screening

Are receiving oral loop diuretics on a regular schedule

LVEF < 30% within 6 months of screening

Disqualifiers

Have AFF on the screening ECG and are currently taking digoxin

Have had any event or procedure that may have resulted in a change in ejection fraction, including, but not limited to, acute coronary syndrome and/or any coronary revascularization, cardiac surgery, valve surgery, any coronary revascularization, and/or cardiac resynchronization, or cardiac contractility modulation therapy within 3 months of screening

Are admitted to a long-term care facility or hospice

Have a projected survival of < 12 months due to non-cardiovascular causes based on clinical judgment

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Time to the first of event of CV death, HF event, LVAD implantation/cardiac transplantation, or stroke

Efficacy of omecamtiv mecarbil compared with placebo on the risk of HF outcomes in patients with symptomatic HFrEF and severely reduced ejection fraction in the setting of guideline-directed medical therapy per local standard of care.

Time frame
From randomization to the first event of CV death or HF event, whichever occurs first, assessed until the last patient exits the study, estimated to last about 3 years

Secondary outcomes

1

Time to the first event of CV death or HF event

Effect of omecamtiv mecarbil compared with placebo on risk of CV death and HF event

Time frame
From randomization to the first event of CV death or HF event, whichever occurs first, assessed until the last patient exits the study, estimated to last about 3 years
2

Time to the first HF hospitalization

Effect of omecamtiv mecarbil compared with placebo on risk of HF hospitalization

Time frame
From randomization to the first event of CV death or HF event, whichever occurs first, assessed until the last patient exits the study, estimated to last about 3 years
3

Time to the first event of CV death, HF event, LVAD implantation/cardiac transplantation, or stroke in a subgroup of patients with severe HF

Effect of omecamtiv mecarbil compared with placebo on risk of HF outcomes in patients with severe HF, defined as patients with NYHA class 3-4 symptoms and a HF event within the last 3 months

Time frame
From randomization to the first event of CV death or HF event, whichever occurs first, assessed until the last patient exits the study, estimated to last about 3 years
4

Time to the first event of CV death, LVAD implantation/cardiac transplantation, or stroke

Effect of omecamtiv mecarbil compared with placebo on risk of irreversible morbidity/mortality related to HFrEF

Time frame
From randomization to the first event of CV death or HF event, whichever occurs first, assessed until the last patient exits the study, estimated to last about 3 years
