Eligibility criteria:
Inclusion Criteria:

No addition or removal of ACE, angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs), valsartan/sacubitril, beta-blockers, calcium channel blockers (CCBs) or aldosterone antagonists; ii.No substantial change in dosage (100% or greater increase or decrease from baseline dose) of ACE, ARBs, beta-blockers, CCBs or aldosterone antagonists
On a diuretic ≥15 days prior to screening visit and a stable diuretic therapy for 7 days
At least one of the following: i. Hospitalization for decompensated HF in the last 12 months; ii. Acute treatment for HF with intravenous loop diuretic or hemofiltration in the last 12 months; iii. Mean pulmonary capillary wedge pressure ≥15 mmHg or LV end diastolic pressure (LVEDP) ≥15 mmHg documented during catheterization at rest, or pulmonary capillary wedge pressure or LVEDP ≥25 mmHg documented during catheterization with exercise; iv. Structural heart disease evidenced by at least one of the following echo findings (any local measurement made within the 24 months prior to screening visit): a) left atrial (LA) enlargement defined by at least one of the following: LA width ≥3.8cm or LA length ≥5.0 cm or LA area ≥20 cm2 or LA volume ≥55 mL or LA volume index ≥29 mL/m2 b) or left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) defined by septal thickness or posterior wall thickness ≥1.1 cm.

Exclusion Criteria:

History of type 1 diabetes
History of diabetic ketoacidosis
Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) < 20 at the screening visit by modified MDRD equation GFR (mL/min/1.73 m2 ) = 175 x (Scr) -1.154 x (Age)-0.203 x (0.742 if female) x (1.210 if African American)
Admission for an acute coronary syndrome (ST-elevation MI, non-ST-elevation MI, or unstable angina), percutaneous coronary intervention, or cardiac surgery within 30 days prior to the screening visit.
Admission for cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) within 90 days prior to the screening visit.
Planned cardiovascular revascularization (percutaneous intervention or surgical) or major cardiac surgery (coronary artery bypass grafting, valve replacement, ventricular assist device, cardiac transplantation, or any other surgery requiring thoracotomy, or transcatheter aortic valve replacement) or CRT within the 90 days after the screening visit.
Participation in any interventional clinical trial (with an investigational drug or device) that is not an observational registry within 15 days of the screening visit.

Average supine systolic BP <100 mmHg at the screening or randomization visit
Current history of bladder cancer
Donation of blood or bone marrow 12 weeks prior to the screening visit and no planned donations during the study period
Heart failure due to restrictive/infiltrative cardiomyopathy, active myocarditis, constrictive pericarditis, severe stenotic valve disease, and HOCM (hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy).
Heart failure due to severe aortic or mitral regurgitation
