About this study

The two primary goals of it's management are preventing further disease progression(mortality,hospitalizations and deterioration of left ventricular function)and alleviating patient suffering

Read the detailed description

Heart failure (HF) is emerging as an epidemic in 3rd world countries. Despite significant therapeutic advances, patients with chronic heart failure remain at high risk for HF progression and death. The two primary goals of its management are preventing further disease progression(mortality, hospitalizations and deterioration of left ventricular function)and alleviating patient suffering.Sacubitril /valsartan (previously known as LCZ696) is a first-in-class medicine that contains a neprilysin (NEP )inhibitor(sacubitril) and an angiotensin II receptor blocker (valsartan). NEP is an endopeptidase that metabolizes different vasoactive peptides including natriuretic peptides, bradykinin and Ang -II. In consequence, its inhibition increases mainly the levels of both natriuretic peptides (promoting diuresis, natriuresis and vasodilation) and Ang- II whose effects are blocked by the angiotensin receptor blocker, valsartan (reducing vasoconstriction and aldosterone release).

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Sacubitril / Valsartan Oral TabletDrug

    Also called Sacvin

    Sacubitril/Valsartan is indicated to reduce the risk of cardiovascular death and hospitalization for heart failure in patients with chronic heart failure (NYHA Class II-IV) and reduced ejection fraction.

    Sacubitril/Valsartan is usually administered in conjunction with another heart failure therapies, in place of an ACE inhibitor or other ARB.

Study groups in NCT04218435
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
ObservationalSacubitril/valsartan is a combination of a neprilysin inhibitor, sacubitril and an angiotensin II receptor blocker, valsartan. The recommended starting dose is one 49/51 mg (sacubitril/valsartan) tablet twice-daily. Double the dose of Sacubitril/valsartan after 2 to 4 weeks to the target maintenance dose of 97/103 mg (sacubitril/valsartan) twice-daily, as tolerated by the patient. Reduce the starting dose to 24/26 mg (sacubitril/valsartan) twice-daily for: * Patients not currently taking an angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEi) or an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB) or previously taking a low dose of these agents. * Patients with severe renal impairment (CrCl less than 30 ml/min) * Patients with moderate hepatic impairment. (Child Pugh B) Double the dose of Sacubitril/valsartan every 2 to 4 weeks to the target maintenance dose of 97/103 mg (sacubitril/valsartan) twice-daily, as tolerated by the patient
Receives: Drug: Sacubitril / Valsartan Oral Tablet

What is being measured

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

  1. Assess the result on the quality of life through Kansas city cardiomyopathy Questionnaire

    comparison of the quality of life questionnaire before and after the treatment of sacubitril/ valsartan

    Measured: 1 year

  2. Analyze the result on mortality of heart failure patients through Kansas city cardiomyopathy Questionnaire

    Improvement in mortality of heart failure patients after taking treatment of sacubitril/ valsartan.

    Measured: 1 year

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Incidence of acute kidney injury after taking angiotensin receptor neprilysin inhibitor

    changes in the baseline of acute kidney injury, electrolyte imbalance and hemodynamic instability before and after taking treatment of sacubitril valsartan

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Heart Failure NYHA Class IV and Heart Failure NYHA Class II, run by Clinision at 1 site in Pakistan.

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 3 inclusion and 4 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 1 Feb 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Pakistan. 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?

Assess the result on the quality of life through Kansas city cardiomyopathy Questionnaire (time frame: 1 year). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 1 Feb 2021.
