About this trial

This study aims to evaluate the effect of sacubitril/valsartan in patients with prosthetic heart valves with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF).

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Age ≥ 18 years old.

Both sexes.

Patients with a history of prosthetic heart valves.

Patients diagnosed with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), defined as left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≤ 40% with New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional class II-IV.

Disqualifiers

Hemodynamic instability.

Use of a circulatory auxiliary circulation device.

Severe hepatic [alanine aminotransferase (ALT) >120 U/L] and renal insufficiency [estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) <30 mL/min].

Blood pressure <100/60 mmHg.

Trial design

Design model

Parallel

Treatments tested in this trial

  • Sacubitril/Valsartan

    Drug

    Patients will be treated with conventional anti-heart failure therapy plus sacubitril/valsartan (oral administration of an initial dose of 24/26 mg twice daily, gradually increasing to 97/103 mg, depending on follow-up blood pressure) \[Entresto, 100 mg (sacubitril 49 mg/valsartan 51 mg)\].

  • Conventional anti-heart failure therapy

    Drug

    Patients will be treated only with conventional anti-heart failure therapy as a control group.

Treatment groups

220 Participants
are divided into 2 treatment groups
Group A: Group SExperimental treatment 1 intervention
Group B: Group CActive comparator 1 intervention

Effective rate

Effectiveness is defined as an New York Heart Association (NYHA) cardiac function grade improved by 1 grade or more. Effective rate= Effectiveness/total quantity\*(100%).
