Phase 3: testing Empagliflozin 10 mg for Congenital Heart Disease

Some people are born with a birth defect where they only have one functioning ventricle (lower chamber) in their heart. This condition can be initially managed with a Fontan operation, but there is a risk of developing Fontan Circulatory Failure (FCF) later in life.

Official registry: https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT06955260 · Subodh Verma · enrollment listed as 410

What this phase means

Phase 3: this treatment already looked useful in smaller studies. Now it is tested in a large group, often against standard care or a dummy treatment, to see if it should be approved.

Phase labels are FDA/ICH categories applied to the registry Phase field. They are not a finding that this study succeeded.

What the registry says happens

If you join, the listed intervention(s) are Empagliflozin 10 mg, or Placebo. The registry lists allocation as randomized. Some people are born with a birth defect where they only have one functioning ventricle (lower chamber) in their heart.

They plan to enroll about 410 people at 2 sites. Taking part typically means taking a study drug (or dummy pill) plus check-ins.

Official title (unrewritten)

A Randomized Trial of SGLT2 Inhibition With Empagliflozin in Adults With Fontan Circulatory Failure (EMPA-HEART 3 CardioLink-12)

Interventions: Empagliflozin 10 mg, Placebo

Primary outcome (registry wording): Hierarchical endpoint

Who it is for (from inclusion criteria)

  • Ages 18 Years to any
  • Adults (≥18 years of age) with FCF, defined by dysfunction of the Fontan physiology that causes limitation to the individual's ability to carry out daily life activities, on standard of care therapy
