Heart failure drug trial halted early – what we know

NCT ID NCT06237309

First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study tested a single dose of an experimental antibody called REGN5381 in 89 people with chronic heart failure and reduced pumping ability. The goal was to check safety, how the drug moves in the body, and its effects on heart stress markers. The trial was terminated early, so final results are not available.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance

REGN5381 (an experimental antibody given as a single intravenous infusion)

What this could lead to

If successful, this could point toward a new treatment to help manage chronic heart failure by improving heart function.

What could go wrong

This was an early phase 2 trial that was terminated, so results are limited. The drug is still experimental and may not prove safe or effective.
