Overview
A multicenter, randomized, controlled study in Sweden (n=110). This study consists of 2 phases: 1) open-label run-in within approximately 2 months, and 2) randomized, double-blinded and placebo-controlled treatment for 6 months. The open-label phase, in turn, consists of three periods: up-titration (normally 1 - 2 weeks, and longer in some cases), correction (maximum 72 hours) and maintenance (4 - 7 weeks).

For HFpEF echo criteria defined by ≥2 of: LV wall thickness ≥ 12 mm; LV mass index (BSA indexed LVH): male \>115 g/m2, female \>95 g/m2; relative wall thickness ≥0.42; E/e' ≥15 in sinus rhythm (or \> 11 in the setting of atrial fibrillation); tricuspid regurgitation velocity \>2.8 m/s; Left atrial volume index \>34 ml/m2. 3. GFR ≥ 20 mL/min/1,73 m². 4. NYHA II-IV. 5. On optimal treatment as per physician´s judgement including ACE/ARB/ARNI, beta blockers, SGLT2 inhibitor för HFrEF/HFmrEF, and SGLT2 inhibitors in HFpEF 6. Suboptimal treatment with MRA (defined as: no use or ≤ 25 mg daily 7. And one of following:
1\) Prior hyperkalemia (S-K\> 5.0 mmol/L or P-K\> 4.8 mmol/L\*) during MRA treatment within last 24 months, and current S-K ≤ 5.0 or P-K ≤ 4.8 mmol/L 2) Current S-K 4.5-5.0 mmol/L or P-K 4.3-4.8 mmol/L, and potential risk of hyperkalemia as indicated by eGFR 30-45 ml/min/1,73 m2 3) Current S-K 5.1-5.9 mmol/L or P-K 4.9-5.7 mmol/L
* Corresponding plasma K (P-K) level is 0.2 mmol lower than serum K(S-K). Hyperkalemia is defined as P-K \> 4,8 mmol/L or S-K \>5,0 mmol/L.
