Key findings

What ClinicalTrials.gov does not surface for Heart Failure on its own pages , computed from the registry mirror as of 2026-07-11. Each line carries its own denominator so it can be quoted as it stands.

  1. Heart Failure is recruiting above its size-band peers.

    164 of 399 indexed trials (41.1%) are open to enrollment, against a 37.2% average across 135 conditions with 100+ trials. The peer set uses the same ClinicalTrials.gov-derived counts as this page.

  2. Sponsorship of Heart Failure trials is spread across many organizations.

    Abbott Medical Devices accounts for 15 of 399 trials (3.8%). 195 distinct sponsors appear on at least one study for this condition label.

  3. Typical Heart Failure enrolment sits around 128 participants.

    Median target enrolment is 128 among the 398 trials that report a genuine target (sentinel values excluded). 177 of those (44.5%) plan for fewer than 100 participants.

  4. Heart Failure research is mostly interventional.

    297 interventional and 102 observational studies make up this index (74.4% interventional). Study type is sponsor-reported on ClinicalTrials.gov.
