AI-rewrites the medical criteria so a patient or caregiver can understand them. Always confirm with the trial site.
Inclusion Criteria:
* Advanced chronic Heart Failure with Reduced Ejection Fraction (HFrEF), defined as left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) less than or equal to (≤) 35% at Screening, including documented history of HFrEF (LVEF ≤ 35%) for at least 4 months prior to Screening
* New York Heart Association Class II-IV
* Cardiac index ≤ 2.5 liters per minute per square meter (L/min/m\^2) and pulmonary capillary wedge pressure ≥ 15 millimeters of mercury (mm Hg) at Day 1
* Body mass index 18.0 to 37.0 kilograms per square meter (kg/m\^2), inclusive, and body weight \< 150 kg at Screening and Day 1
Exclusion Criteria:
* Hemodynamically unstable at Day 1 or in the opinion of the Investigator likely to progress to becoming hemodynamically unstable during the course of the study
* Treated with carvedilol or at a dose higher than a total of 25 milligrams per day any time within 72 hours of Day 1 through the end of the in-clinic observation Post-dose Period.
* Receiving any mechanical (respiratory or circulatory) or renal support therapy at Screening or Day 1
* Systolic Blood Pressure ≤ 90 millimeter of mercury (mm Hg) or ≥ 160 mm Hg, or Heart Rate \< 50 beats per minute (bpm) or \> 110 bpm, at Screening or Day 1
* Recently treated with inotropic, intravenous (IV) vasoactive or IV diuretic therapy, or expected to require such therapy with these drugs any time from Day 1 through the end of study conduct.
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.

Part A: Change in Cardiac Index (CI) Measured by Right Heart Catheterization (RHC) From Baseline to End of Intravenous (IV) Infusion at 6 Hours
Timeframe: Baseline (within 2 hours prior to start of study treatment administration) up to 6 Hours (end of IV infusion)
