Effects of ziltivekimab versus placebo on morbidity and mortality in patients with heart failure with mildly reduced or preserved ejection fraction and systemic inflammation.

Recruiting

We are looking at a new drug called 'ziltivekimab' to see if it can be used to treat people living with heart failure and inflammation. People will get either ziltivekimab or a placebo (inactive dummy drug). The study drug is an injection given into the fold of the skin on the stomach, thigh or upper arm once every month. People will take the study drug for up to 4 years.

I'm interested
