This is a two-center, prospective randomized controlled trial. The aim of this study is to compare the clinical efficacy of early left bundle branch pacing for cardiac resynchronization therapy and guideline-directed medical therapy in heart failure with mild-reduced ejection fraction.
Early-resync is a two-center, prospective randomized controlled trial that is designed to determine whether early left bundle branch pacing has a better impact on LV function improvement as compared with traditional guideline-directed medical therapy in heart failure with mild-reduced ejection fraction(36%≤LVEF≤50%) and complete left bundle branch block (CLBBB). Patients with symptomatic heart failure,36%≤LVEF≤50%, NYHA function class II-IV, and CLBBB(according to STRAUSS criteria) will be 1:1 randomized to LBBP+GDMT or GDMT group after enrollment and be followed at 3 and 6 months after randomization. LBBP will be performed by a double-chamber device in LBBP+GDMT group. All patients will receive GDMT. The primary endpoint is the change in the LVEF at 6 months after randomization from baseline.

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| LBBP+GDMT group | Experimental | Patients in the LBBP+GDMT group will receive LBBP using dual-chamber device as priority and guideline-directed medical therapy. The pacing lead will be implanted at the left bundle branch and whether LBB is captured will be judged during the procedure. For patients who LBBP is failed, CRTP using triple-chamber device or LVSP by using dual-chamber device will be an alternative option according to the co-determination after consultation between doctors and patients . |
|
| GDMT group | Active Comparator | Patients in the GDMT group will receive guideline-directed medical therapy according to their complications, heart rate, blood pressure and so on. During follow-up of 6 months, patients may transfer to LBBP group if the LVEF decreased to <35% and patients accepted the device implantation. |

| GDMT | Drug | GDMT is defined as the drug strategy for treatment of heart failure according to the current guidelines. |

the percentage of patients with LVEF ≥50% at 6 month follow-up |
| 6 months |
| The changes of NYHA function class between baseline and 6-month follow-up. | NYHA function class (from I to IV) is evaluated by clinicians at each outpatient follow-up visit; | 6 months |
| Composite incidence rate of all-cause mortality and/or hospitalization for heart failure | All-cause death: including cardiovascular and non-cardiovascular deaths. Hospitalization for heart failure: an unplanned outpatient or emergency department visit or inpatient hospitalization in which the patient presented with signs and symptoms consistent with heart failure and required medication therapy. | 6 months |
| The rate of LVEF <=35% at six-month | The percentage of patients with LVEF <=35% at 6 month follow-up | 6 months |
| The changes of NT-proBNP between baseline and 6-month follow-up. | NT-proBNP in pg/ml was measured by performing a blood test; | 6 months |
| The changes of 6MWD between baseline and 6-month follow-up. | 6MWD in meters stands for "6-Minute Walk Distance." It is a common test used to assess a person's functional exercise capacity and cardiovascular endurance. During the test, the patient is asked to walk as far as possible within a span of 6 minutes in a straight path or designated walking course; | 6 months |
| The changes of QoL between baseline and 6-month follow-up. | QoL stands for "Quality of Life", which is measured by The Minnesota Living with Heart Failure Questionnaire (MLHFQ). The MLHFQ is a self-administered disease-specific questionnaire for patients with HF, comprising 21 items from 0 (none) to 5 (very much). It provides a total score (range 0-105, from best to worst HRQoL). | 6 months |
