A Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of AC01 Compared to Placebo in Participants With Chronic Heart Failure
brief summary
The primary purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of 2 doses of AC01 compared to placebo over 12 weeks in participants with chronic advanced HFrEF.
detailed description
This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group, multicenter study designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the ghrelin-receptor agonist AC01 compared to placebo in participants with chronic advanced HFrEF. Approximately 400 participants will be randomized to 1 of 3 treatment arms: 3 milligram (mg) AC01, 1 milligram (mg) AC01, or placebo twice daily for 12 weeks. The primary objective is to evaluate the effect of AC01 compared to placebo on cardiac structure and function assessed by echocardiography.
