Effects of Ivabradine on Cardiovascular Events in Patients With Moderate to Severe Chronic Heart Failure and Left Ventricular Systolic Dysfunction. A Three-year International Multicentre Study (SHIFT)

The primary objective of this study is to demonstrate the superiority of ivabradine over placebo in the reduction of cardiovascular mortality or hospitalisation for worsening heart failure in patients with moderate to severe symptoms of chronic heart failure, a reduced left ventricular ejection fraction and currently receiving recommended therapy for this disease.

Plan for Individual participant data (IPD)

Plan to Share Individual Participant Data (IPD)?

YES

IPD Plan Description

Researchers can ask for a study protocol, patient-level and/or study-level clinical trial data including clinical study reports (CSRs).

They can ask all interventional clinical studies:

  • submitted for new medicines and new indications approved after 1 January 2014 in the European Economic Area (EEA) or the United States (US).
  • Where Servier or an affiliate are the Marketing Authorization Holders (MAH). The date of the first Marketing Authorization of the new medicine (or the new indication) in one of the EEA Member States will be considered within this scope.

IPD Sharing Time Frame

After Marketing Authorisation in EEA or US if the study is used for the approval.

IPD Sharing Access Criteria

Researchers should register on Servier Data Portal and fill in the research proposal form. This form in four parts should be fully documented. The Research Proposal Form will not be reviewed until all mandatory fields are completed.

IPD Sharing Supporting Information Type

  • STUDY_PROTOCOL
  • SAP
  • ICF
  • CSR
