Not accepted
You may be eligible if
Signs or symptoms of Heart Failure (HF) (NYHA FC I I and II I ) requiring treatment with at least one oral diuretic (any type)
Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≥ 40% (by echocardiography at Screening)
Structural heart disease consistent with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) established by echocardiography at Screening
Elevated NT-proBNP
Pulmonary vascular disease or right ventricular dysfunction
You may not be if
Any prior valid measurement of LVEF \< 40%. An echocardiogram is considered valid if its quality is sufficient to allow accurate assessment of LVEF and if it is reflective of the true status of the subject
Cardiovascular co-morbidities (e.g., significant unrepaired structural valvular heart disease; acute coronary syndrome, coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) or percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) within 3 months of Screening; uncontrolled heart rate from atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter, history of serious life-threatening or hemodynamically significant arrhythmia; history of or anticipated heart transplant or ventricular assist device implantation, etc)
Systolic blood pressure (SBP) ≥ 180 mmHg, or diastolic blood pressure (DBP) ≥ 110 mmHg during Screening
Hemoglobin \< 100g/L (\< 10 g/dl) at Screening
Significant parenchymal lung disease (e.g., severe COPD, moderate or severe restrictive lung disease, diffuse interstitial fibrosis or alveolitis, pulmonary thromboembolism)
Severe renal dysfunction with an estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR) \< 30 mL/min per 1.73 m2
Severe hepatic impairment, e.g., Child Pugh Class C
