Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The purpose of this randomized, actively controlled, double-blind study with prospective data collection was to assess differences between sacubitril/valsartan versus enalapril in increasing exercise capacity and non-sedentary physical activity in HFrEF patients. Physical activity was assessed by the 6 minute walk test, and daily physical activity was continuously measured by means of a wrist-worn accelerometry device from 2 weeks before until 12 weeks after start of study therapy (sacubitril/valsartan or enalapril).

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: LCZ696 (Sacubitril/Valsartan)

After randomization, patients in this arm received LCZ696 (Sacubitril/Valsartan) twice daily and matching placebo of Enalapril depending on the patient's previous ACEI/ARB dose (enalapril equivalent dose) for 2 weeks. Patients could start study medication at dose level 1 (24 mg/26 mg LCZ), 2 (49 mg/51 mg LCZ) or 2a (49 mg/51 mg LCZ) or matching placebo bid. After 2 weeks (visit 3) the doses were up-titrated: patients, who started on dose level 2 or 2a received the target dose of study medication (level 3) at this point. After another 2 weeks (visit 4) all patients were to achieve the target dose of 97 mg/103 mg bid LCZ696(sacubitril/valsartan) and matching placebo, provided no safety and tolerability issues arised during uptitration.

Drug: LCZ696 (Sacubitril/Valsartan)

    Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Change From Baseline (Week 0) in the Six Minute Walk Test (6MWT) at End of Study (Week 12) [Baseline, Week 12]

      The impact of LCZ696 (Sacubitril/Valsartan) and Enalapril on functional exercise capacity was measured by the Six Minute Walk Test at 12 weeks. The 6MWT measures the distance an individual is able to walk over a total of six minutes on a hard, flat surface. The goal is for the individual to walk as far as possible in six minutes. The individual is able to self-pace and rest as needed as they traverse back and forth along a marked walkway.

    2. Change From Baseline (Week 0) in Mean Daily Non-sedentary Daytime Activity at End of Study (Week 12) [Baseline, Week 12]

      Non-sedentary physical activity is defined as >= 178.50 activity counts per minute; the average number of minutes per day spent in non-sedentary physical activity is being calculated over 14 days before randomization (baseline i.e. week -2 to week 0) and the last 14 days of treatment (i.e. week 10 to week 12).

    Arm/Group Title LCZ696 (Sacubitril/Valsartan) Enalapril
    Arm/Group Description LCZ696 (Sacubitril/Valsartan) or its matching placebo twice a day for 12 weeks. Patients began study treatment (Sacubitril/Valsartan) at a specific dose level according to their pre-study ACEI/ARB dose (1 (24 mg/26 mg LCZ), 2 (49 mg/51 mg LCZ) or 2a (49 mg/51 mg LCZ)) or matching placebo and were up-titrated according to an up-titration scheme. Enalapril or its matching placebo twice a day for 12 weeks. Patients began study treatment (Enalapril) at a specific dose level according to their pre-study ACEI/ARB dose (1 (2.5 mg), 2a (5 mg)) or matching placebo and were up-titrated according to an up-titration scheme.

    Outcome Measures

    1. Primary Outcome
    Title Change From Baseline (Week 0) in the Six Minute Walk Test (6MWT) at End of Study (Week 12)
    Description The impact of LCZ696 (Sacubitril/Valsartan) and Enalapril on functional exercise capacity was measured by the Six Minute Walk Test at 12 weeks. The 6MWT measures the distance an individual is able to walk over a total of six minutes on a hard, flat surface. The goal is for the individual to walk as far as possible in six minutes. The individual is able to self-pace and rest as needed as they traverse back and forth along a marked walkway.

The 6MWT measures the distance an individual is able to walk over a total of six minutes on a hard, flat surface. The goal is for the individual to walk as far as possible in six minutes. The individual is able to self-pace and rest as needed as they traverse back and forth along a marked walkway.

    20. Secondary Outcome
    Title Change From Baseline in Peak Six Minutes of Daytime Physical Activity
    Description The peak 6 min walk (M6min) is a parameter derived by validated algorithms of the software that are used to preprocess actigraphy data. The parameter reflected the peak 6 minutes of day time physical activity. The mean daily 6-minute walking test was being calculated over 14 day intervals.
