About the High Blood Pressure Research Study
About the Study
This is a Phase III clinical research study evaluating an investigational treatment for adults living with Chronic Heart Failure with Reduced Ejection Fraction (HFrEF). Researchers are studying whether adding a new investigational medication to standard Heart Failure treatment may help improve outcomes for people living with Heart Failure.
Understanding HBP
High blood pressure, also called hypertension, often has no noticeable symptoms, but over time it can place extra strain on your heart and blood vessels. Even with medication, some people continue to have difficulty controlling their blood pressure, increasing their risk for heart attack, stroke, and other cardiovascular conditions.
Who We're Looking For
We’re looking for adults who have been diagnosed with high blood pressure, are taking medication to manage it, and continue to have uncontrolled blood pressure. Participants should also have heart disease or multiple cardiovascular risk factors.
