Phase IIb Safety and Efficacy Study of BAY94-8862 in Subjects With Worsening Chronic Heart Failure and Left Ventricular Systolic Dysfunction and Either Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus With or Without Chronic Kidney Disease or Moderate Chronic Kidney Disease Alone
Japan72 participantsStarted 2013-11-11
Plain-language 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.

AI-rewrites the medical criteria so a patient or caregiver can understand them. Always confirm with the trial site.
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
Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
