Clareo Health | A Study to Determine the Efficacy and Safety of Finerenone and SGLT2i in Combination in Hospitalized Patients With Heart Failure (CONFIRMATION-HF)
This is an international, randomized, controlled, open-label, trial of an early, intensive management strategy using the combination of finerenone plus sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitor (SGLT2i) compared with usual care in patients hospitalized with heart failure (HF).

Heart failure signs and symptoms at the time of hospital admission
Elevated N-terminal pro B-type natriuretic peptide (NTproBNP) ≥500 pg/mL or B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) ≥125 pg/mL according to the local lab for patients in sinus rhythm; or elevated NTproBNP ≥1500 pg/mL or BNP ≥375 pg/mL for patients with atrial fibrillation (AF), measured during the current hospitalization or in the 72 hours prior to hospital admission
Fulfillment of protocol defined stabilization criteria (if randomized during hospitalization)

Prior or planned heart transplant
Hemodynamically significant uncorrected primary cardiac valvular disease as primary cause of heart failure
Cardiomyopathy due to acute inflammatory heart disease, infiltrative diseases, accumulation diseases, muscular dystrophies, cardiomyopathy with reversible causes, known hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy, complex congenital heart disease, or pericardial constriction
Probable alternative cause of participant's heart failure symptoms

Known hypersensitivity to the IP (active substance or excipients)
Any other condition or therapy which would make the patient unsuitable for this study
