HF hospitalisation or urgent
HF visit
Inclution Criteria
Disease specific - cardiovascular
At least one of the followinga:
a. NT-proBNP ≥ 300 pg/mL at screening (Visit 1) for patients without ongoing atrial
fibrillation/flutter. If ongoing atrial fibrillation/flutter at screening (visit 1), NT-
proBNP must be ≥600 pg/mL. Note that the screening ECG must be obtained the
same day as sampling for NT-proBNP.
b. Hospitalisation or urgent/unplanned visit with a primary diagnosis of decompensated
heart failure which required intravenous loop diuretic treatment, within the last 9
months prior to screening (visit 1) in combination with NT-proBNP ≥ 200 pg/mL at
screening (Visit 1) for patients without ongoing atrial fibrillation/flutter. If ongoing
atrial fibrillation/flutter at screening (visit 1), NT-proBNP must be ≥600 pg/mL.
Diagnosis of heart failure (NYHA Class II-IV).
LVEF > 40% documented by echocardiography within 12 months prior to or at screening
(visit 1). The LVEF must be documented in medical records and the most recent
measurement must be used to determine eligibility with no interim event signalling potential
deterioration in ejection fraction (e.g., MI or HF hospitalisation).
Structural heart disease and/or functional heart disease documented by echocardiography
within 12 months prior to or at screening (visit 1) showing at least one of the following:
LA volume index > 34 mL/m2.
LA diameter ≥ 3.8 cm.
LA length ≥ 5.0 cm.
LA area ≥ 20 cm2.
LA volume ≥ 55 mL.
Intraventricular septal thickness ≥1.1 cm.
Posterior wall thickness ≥1.1 cm.
LV mass index ≥115 g⁄m2 in men or ≥ 95 g⁄m2 in women.
Exclusion Criteria
failure hospitalisation, within 30 days prior to screening (visit 1).
Systolic blood pressure ≥180 mmHg at screening (visit 1). If the systolic blood pressure is
160-179 mmHg, the patient should be receiving ≥3 antihypertensive drugs. (Note: Potential
participants may be retested for this criterion within the visit window and without
rescreening, at the discretion of the investigator).
Heart rate above 110 or below 40 beats per minute as evaluated on the ECG performed at
screening (visit 1) (Note: Potential participants may be retested for this criterion within the
visit window and without rescreening, at the discretion of the investigator).
Planned coronary, carotid or peripheral artery revascularisation known during the screening
period (visit 1). (Note: Planned coronary angiogram is not exclusionary).
Planned cardiac device or atrial flutter/atrial fibrillation ablation procedure known during
the screening period (visit 1).
Major cardiac surgical, non-cardiac surgical, or major endoscopic procedure (thoracoscopic
or laparoscopic) within the past 60 days prior to randomisation (visit 2) or any major
surgical procedure planned at the time of randomisation (visit 2).
Heart failure due to infiltrative cardiomyopathy (e.g., sarcoid, amyloid), arrhythmogenic
right ventricular cardiomyopathy, Takutsubo cardiomyopathy, genetic hypertrophic
cardiomyopathy or obstructive cardiomyopathy, active myocarditis, constrictive pericarditis,
cardiac tamponade, uncorrected more than moderate primary valve disease.
Primary pulmonary hypertension, chronic pulmonary embolism, severe pulmonary disease
including COPD.
Any other condition judged by the investigator that could account for heart failure
symptoms and signs (e.g., anaemia, hypothyroidism).
Medical conditions – infections/immunosuppression
Clinical evidence of, or suspicion of, active infection at the discretion of the investigator.
