Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Adults 30 to under 85 with HFpEF (LVEF ≥50%), NYHA II–III, and stable HF therapy.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with certain cardiomyopathies, significant lung disease, or other exclusionary conditions may not benefit.

What this trial studies
This is a randomized, placebo-controlled phase 2 trial evaluating the safety and tolerability of EDG-15400 in adults with heart failure and preserved ejection fraction. Participants are assigned to EDG-15400 25 mg, EDG-15400 50 mg, or matching placebo, with follow-up for adverse events and tolerability. Eligibility includes adults aged 30–<85 with LVEF ≥50%, NYHA class II–III, and stable guideline-directed medical therapy if applicable. Exclusion criteria include hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, infiltrative diseases, and significant chronic lung disease. The lead sponsor is Edgewise Therapeutics, with sites in Birmingham, AL; Little Rock, AR; and Beverly Hills, CA.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, EDG-15400 could offer a new treatment option that improves symptoms or safety in HFpEF.
How similar studies have gone: HFpEF trials with targeted therapies have shown mixed results; this study explores a novel approach in this population.

Inclusion Criteria: * Males and nonpregnant females, ages ≥30 to \<85 years of age at screening * Body weight ≥ 45 kg, BMI \< 40 * LVEF ≥ 50% * Diagnosed with Heart Failure per American Heart Association (AHA)/American College of Cardiology (ACC)/Heart Failure Society of America (HFSA) Guidelines for the Management of Heart Failure * New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional class II or III * If receiving Guideline-directed Medical Therapy, must be on stable doses * Participants receiving a GLP-1 agonist prior to Screening must have no anticipated plans to change dose during the study Exclusion Criteria: * Known diagnosis of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) * Known or suspected infiltrative or storage disorder (e.g., Noonan syndrome, Fabry disease, amyloidosis) * Moderate or greater interstitial lung disease (ILD) or ILD requiring chronic supplemental O2 therapy * Severe or greater chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) or COPD requiring chronic supplementary O2 therapy * Hospitalization for any reason within 60 days prior to Screening * History or evidence of any other clinically significant disorder, malignancy, active infection, other condition, or disease that, in the opinion of the Investigator or the Medical Monitor, would be an alternative explanation for heart failure symptoms (e.g., significant lung disease, anemia) and/or would pose a risk to patient safety or interfere with the study evaluation, procedures, or completion
