Janssen Jumps Into Non-T2DM HF Arena With Innovative Invokana Trial Design (CHIEF-HF) To Rival BI/LLY and AZ
Janssen announced plans to enter the SGLT2i non-T2DM HF arena with “the first-ever completely decentralized, mobile, indication-seeking clinical study” called CHIEF-HF (Canagliflozin: Impact on Health Status, Quality of Life and Functional Status in Heart Failure). According to the press release, Janssen believes it can use this new trial to support an Invokana non-T2DM heart failure (HF) indication. Of note, the trial is not yet listed on CT.gov. Below, FENIX provides thoughts on this first-of-a-kind trial design as well as insight on Janssen’s attempt to push regulatory boundaries and keep pace with BI/LLY and AZ.
