Who is the study for?
This trial is for patients with chronic heart failure and poor kidney function who recently had a heart-related event. Participants should be on standard-of-care treatments for their condition. Specific eligibility details are not provided, but typically, trials exclude individuals with conditions or circumstances that could interfere with the study's outcomes.
What is being tested?
The study tests the effects of combining balcinrenone/dapagliflozin at two different doses versus dapagliflozin alone in managing heart failure. It's a Phase III trial where participants are randomly assigned to one of the treatment groups and neither they nor the researchers know who gets which treatment (double-blind).
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects aren't listed here, drugs like balcinrenone/dapagliflozin can cause issues such as dehydration, low blood pressure, kidney problems, high potassium levels, and possible allergic reactions.
