Study Summary

This study is researching an experimental drug called REGN5381, further referred to as study drug. The study is focused on adult participants with heart failure that, in the opinion of the study doctor, have a clinical indication for right heart catheterization (RHC). The aim of the study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of the study drug.

The study is looking at several other research questions, including:

  • What side effects may happen from taking the study drug

  • How much study drug is in the blood at different times

  • Whether the body makes antibodies against the study drug (which could make the drug less effective or could lead to side effects)

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

Key Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Body mass index (BMI) between 18 and 35 kg/m^2, inclusive, rounded to the nearestwhole number

  2. Ambulatory participants with New York Heart Association (NYHA) class II/III heartfailure and at least 1 sign and/or symptom of congestion (eg, dyspnea on exertion,worsening edema, orthopnea, etc.)

  3. Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≥20 % and <50% on echocardiogram (ie,HFrEF participants) within 90 days prior to randomization (only for HFrEFparticipants in Group A and Group B).

  4. Participants who, in the opinion of the investigator, require a right heartcatheterization (not applicable for HFrEF patients not taking sacubitril/valsartan [Group A]).

  5. Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≥50% on echocardiogram (ie, HFpEFparticipants) within 90 days prior to randomization (only for HFpEF participants inGroup C)

  6. NT-proBNP >1000 pg/mL or Brain Natriuretic Peptide (active form) (BNP) >300 pg/mL asdescribed in the protocol within 30 days prior to randomization measured by thelocal laboratory (only for HFrEF participants [Group A and Group B]).

  7. Pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP) ≥15 mmHg and right artrial pressure (RAP) >5 mmHg on right heart catheterization (RHC) the morning of anticipated study drugdose administration (not applicable for HFrEF participants not takingsacubitril/valsartan [Group A] as described in the protocol).

  8. Systolic blood pressure (SBP) ≥110 mmHg at the screening visit and on day -1

  9. Hematocrit >30% at the screening visit and day -1

Exclusion

Key Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Currently taking IV vasodilators and/or inotropes

  2. Taking sacubitril/valsartan (only for HFrEF and HFpEF participants not takingsacubitril/valsartan [Group A and Group C, respectively])

  3. Taking a phosphodiesterase (PDE) inhibitor (eg, sildenafil), or a soluble guanylatecyclase stimulator (SGCS; ie, vericiguat) within 2 weeks of the screening visit orplanning on taking valsartan/sacubitril, a PDE inhibitor, or a SGCS at any pointduring the study

  4. More than moderate valvular regurgitation/stenosis (ie, moderate-to-severe orsevere) on echocardiogram within 90 days prior to randomization

  5. Known infiltrative or hypertrophic cardiomyopathy

  6. Acute coronary syndrome within prior 6 months of randomization

  7. History of cardiac arrest

  8. Cardiac surgery within 3 months of randomization

  9. Pacemaker or defibrillator placement within prior 30 days of randomization

  10. Severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) (defined as Forced ExpiratoryVolume in 1st second [FEV1] <50% of predicted or Global Initiative for ChronicObstructive Lung Disease [GOLD] 3 or 4)

  11. Pulmonary arterial hypertension (World Health Organization [WHO] Group 1) and anymedical history at any time of more than moderate pulmonary hypertension (ie,moderate-to-severe, or severe pulmonary hypertension, as described in the protocol

  12. Congenital heart disease (repaired or unrepaired)

  13. Inability to lie flat for cardiac catheterization

Note: Other protocol-defined Inclusion/ Exclusion Criteria apply
