  • Heart failure, New York Heart Association class III (3) or IV (4).
  • Left ventricular ejection fraction \< 40% based on imaging (e.g. echocardiography) performed within 6 months prior to or during the screening visit.
  • Clinically significant valvular heart disease, including severe aortic stenosis, severe mitral regurgitation and/or severe mitral stenosis, in the opinion of the investigator.
