  • sacubitril/valsartanDrug

    Also called Entresto

    This study is designed as an observational, naturalistic, multicenter study in patients being treated with sacubitril/valsartan as per the Canadian product label. Treatment initiation with sacubitril/valsartan must be within the last 3 months. Sacubitril/valsartan will be used as commercially available supplies which are available as Film coated tablets in 3 dosage: 1) 24 mg sacubitril / 26 mg valsartan, 2) 49 mg sacubitril / 51 mg valsartan and 3) 97 mg sacubitril / 103 mg valsartan.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
sacubitril/valsartanPatients diagnosed with HFrEF being treated with sacubitril/valsartan according to the Canadian product label and treatment initiation with sacubitril/valsartan within the last 3 months. The usual recommended starting dose is one tablet of 49 mg sacubitril / 51 mg valsartan taken twice daily. The target dose is one tablet of 97 mg sacubitril / 103 mg valsartan taken twice daily. Investigator/designated will document sacubitril/valsartan treatment adherence throughout the 3 years study period
Receives: Drug: sacubitril/valsartan

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Rate of all-cause hospitalization or all- cause mortality in relation to NT-proBNP or BNP levels

    The primary objective is to describe baseline NT- proBNP, or BNP levels, in relation to total all- cause hospitalization or all-cause mortality in patients with HFrEF treated with sacubitril/valsartan

    Measured: Up to 3 years

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Percentage of patients with clinically relevant symptomatic hypotension

    Symptomatic hypotension as reported by the treating physician and defined, but not limited to, severe dizziness or fainting (syncope), lack of concentration, blurred vision, nausea, cold, clammy pale skin, and rapid shallow breathing.

    Measured: Up to 3 years

  2. Percentage of patients with clinically relevant hyperkalemia

    Hyperkalemia defined as serum potassium >5.5 mmol/L [mEq/L] after a repeated measure within one week to confirm serum potassium elevation.

    Measured: Up to 3 years

  3. Percentage of patients with clinically relevant renal impairment

    Renal impairment is defined as a decrease in eGFR of ≥40% after evaluation (verified at subsequent visit) of potentially reversible causes of renal dysfunction or end stage renal disease or need for dialysis or renal transplantation.

    Measured: Up to 3 years

  4. Percentages of patients having a BNP or NT-proBNP level

    Percentage of patients having a BNP before sacubitril/valsartan initiation will be reported; whereas, percentage of patients having NT-proBNP level at baseline and NTproBNP levels throughout the registry will be reported.

    Measured: Up to 3 years

  5. Relationship between changes in NT-proBNP and all-cause mortality

    Measured: Up to 3 years

  6. Relationship between changes in NT-proBNP and total all-cause hospitalization

    Measured: Up to 3 years

  7. Relationship between changes in NT-proBNP and renal impairment

    Measured: Up to 3 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Heart Failure, run by Novartis Pharmaceuticals at 32 sites in Canada.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Aug 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 32 sites in Canada. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Rate of all-cause hospitalization or all- cause mortality in relation to NT-proBNP or BNP levels (time frame: Up to 3 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 26 Aug 2021.
