First seen Mar 06, 2026 · Last updated May 13, 2026 · Updated 15 times

Summary

This study tests whether a drug called engagliflozin (an SGLT2 inhibitor) can improve heart function in people with pre-heart failure and high blood pressure who do not have diabetes. About 120 participants will receive either the drug or a placebo for 6 months. The main goal is to see if the drug reduces the size of the heart's left atrium, which is a sign of better heart function.
