Study Summary

The primary hypothesis in this trial is that the treatment with vericiguat 10 mg or 15 mg in patients with HFpEF improves the KCCQ PLS (Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire Physical limitation score) compared to placebo after 24 weeks of treatment.

Primary Outcome

The City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire (KCCQ) measures the impact of patients' heart failure, or its treatment, on 6 domains; Physical Limitation, Symptom (with subscores for frequency and burden), Quality of Life, Social Limitations, Symptom Stability and Self-Efficacy. Scores are calculated by summing domain responses and then transforming scores to a 0-100 unit scale with higher scores indicating better health status.

Interventions

  • DRUG Placebo
  • DRUG Vericiguat (BAY1021189) 2.5 mg, 5 mg or 10 mg IR tablets
