Multiple-biomarker Approach for Individualized Treatment of Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction (ADAPT-HFpEF)

January 20, 2025 updated by: Isabella Kardys, Erasmus Medical Center

A Dynamic, Multiple-biomarker Approach Aiming for Individualized Treatment of Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction (ADAPT-HFpEF)

The primary objective is to investigate the association between temporal evolutions of blood biomarkers and clinical adverse events, in order to produce a dynamic, individual, and accurate prediction model for patients with HFpEF.

Moreover several secondary objectives will be investigated.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

This is a prospective, observational multi-center cohort study which will be conducted at the cardiology departments of the Erasmus Medical Centre (EMC) as well as five other hospitals. A total of 200 HFpEF patients will be included in the study via the outpatient clinics. The follow-up period will constitute a minimum of 2 years and a maximum of 3.5 years. Clinical data will be collected at baseline and blood samples will be collected at baseline and subsequently every 6 months.

  • Capable of understanding and signing informed consent
  • A diagnosis of HFpEF according to the HFA-PEFF diagnostic algorithm of the ESC or/and a high (90%) probability of HFpEF according to the H2FPEF score, i.e. a score of 6 or higher.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • History of LVEF ≤40%
  • Scheduled for surgery or intervention for both coronary and non-coronary indication within 6 months of inclusion
  • Impaired renal function, defined as eGFR < 20 mL/min/1.73 m2 (CKD-EPI) or requiring dialysis at the time of screening
  • Acute or chronic liver disease, defined by serum levels of transaminases or alkaline phosphatase more than three times the upper limit of normal at screening
  • COPD Gold stage IV
  • Congenital heart disease
  • Pregnancy
  • Coexistent condition with life expectancy of <1 year
  • Unlikely to appear at all scheduled follow-up visits

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
The primary endpoint is the number of participants with a combined endpoint of: urgent visit resulting in intravenous therapy for HF, hospital readmission for acute or worsened HF, and cardiovascular death.
Time Frame: Every 6 months, up to 3,5 years
This is a composite endpoint; therefore, the first occurrence of any of the described components will result in the endpoint being met for an individual patient.
Every 6 months, up to 3,5 years

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Number of participants with urgent visit resulting in intravenous therapy for heart failure
Time Frame: Every 6 months, up to 3,5 years
Every 6 months, up to 3,5 years
Number of patients with hospital readmission for acute or worsened HF
Time Frame: Every 6 months, up to 3.5 years
Every 6 months, up to 3.5 years
Number of participants with cardiovascular death.
Time Frame: Every 6 months, up to 3.5 years
Every 6 months, up to 3.5 years
Number of participants with the combined endpoint urgent visit resulting in intravenous therapy for HF, hospital readmission for acute or worsened HF, and all-cause death.
Time Frame: Every 6 months, up to 3,5 years
This is a composite endpoint; therefore, the first occurrence of any of the described components will result in the endpoint being met for an individual patient.
Every 6 months, up to 3,5 years
Number of partcipants with all-cause death
Time Frame: Every 6 months, up to 3,5 years
Every 6 months, up to 3,5 years
Number of participants with the combined endpoint of myocardial infarction (fatal and non-fatal), stroke (fatal and non-fatal), percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG)
Time Frame: Every 6 months, up to 3,5 years
This is a composite endpoint; therefore, the first occurrence of any of the described components will result in the endpoint being met for an individual patient.
Every 6 months, up to 3,5 years
Number of participants with cardiovascular disease (includes all of the above-mentioned components, except all-cause death)
Time Frame: Every 6 months, up to 3,5 years
This is a composite endpoint; therefore, the first occurrence of any of the described components will result in the endpoint being met for an individual patient.
Every 6 months, up to 3,5 years
