Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To assess the effect of ivabradine compared to placebo on the diastolic function, the exercise capacity and the neuroendocrine activation over an 8-month treatment period.;Secondary Objective: - To evaluate the effects of ivabradine compared to placebo on cardiac function and structural parameters, quality of life, NYHA classification and other biomarkers; - To evaluate the safety and tolerance profile of ivabradine compared to placebo. ;Primary end point(s): Co-primary endpoints based on echocardiography (E/e'), neuroendocrine activation (NT-proBNP) and six-minute walk test ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Co-primary endpoints measured up to M008

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): Efficacy and safety endpoints ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: All over the study
