Official title
A Dynamic, Multiple-biomarker Approach Aiming for Individualized Treatment of Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction (ADAPT-HFpEF)
Overview
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.
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.
Primary outcome measures
- 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]
Secondary outcome measures (7)
- Number of participants with urgent visit resulting in intravenous therapy for heart failure [Time frame: 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]
- Number of participants with cardiovascular death. [Time frame: 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]
- Number of partcipants with all-cause death [Time frame: 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]
- 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]
