Purpose

This study will examine if maridebart cafraglutide as an adjunct to standard of care will lead to a reduction in heart failure (HF) events such as HF hospitalizations and urgent HF visits, cardiovascular (CV) deaths and improvement in HF symptoms in participants with HF with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) and HF with mildly reduced ejection fraction (HFmrEF) who are obese. This is a phase 3, global, multicenter, 2-part study with a double-blind period and an open-label extension (OLE). The study is event-driven, and Part 1 will conclude when approximately 850 primary endpoint events have occurred.

Structural heart disease OR 2. Documented hospitalization with a primary diagnosis of decompensated HF within 12 months before randomization OR 3. Evidence of elevated filling pressures within 12 months before randomization.

Exclusion Criteria

  • History of any of the following within 60 days before screening: Type I (spontaneous) MI, valvular replacement or repair, coronary revascularization, coronary artery bypass graft surgery or other major cardiovascular surgery, stroke. - HF due to: hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, infiltrative cardiomyopathy, active myocarditis, constrictive pericarditis, cardiac tamponade, arrhythmogenic right ventricular or left ventricular cardiomyopathy/dysplasia, or uncorrected primary valvular heart disease, or clinically significant congenital heart disease. - Any lifetime history of LVEF ≤ 40%. - Currently hospitalized with acute decompensated HF or hospitalization with a primary diagnosis of decompensated HF within 30 days before screening. - Type 1 diabetes mellitus, or any type of diabetes with the exception of T2DM or history of gestational diabetes. - For participants with a prior diagnosis of T2DM at screening: 1. HbA1c > 10.0% 2. Uncontrolled diabetes requiring immediate therapy 3. History of diabetic ketoacidosis or hyperosmolar state/coma 4. One or more episodes of severe hypoglycemia within 6 months before screening and/or history of hypoglycemia unawareness 5.

History of unstable major depressive disorder or other severe psychiatric disorder within 2 years before screening 2. Lifetime history of suicide attempt 3. History of non-suicidal self-injury within 5 years before screening. - History of any other condition that, in the opinion of the investigator, may preclude the participant from following the protocol and completing the study. - Use of any glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonist (GLP-1 RA), glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) agonists or antagonists, or amylin analogs within 90 days before randomization or planned use during the conduct of the study.
