3 Background Percutaneous renal denervation (RDN) has been observed to reduce blood pressure (BP) short-term in patients with resistant hypertension Durability of BP reduction long-term post-rdn may be compromised by sympathetic nerve re-growth and possible functional re-innervation Furthermore, long-term safety and late complications of the RDN procedure need to be closely followed We therefore evaluated the long-term safety and BPlowering efficacy amongst all patients followed out to 36 months in the Symplicity HTN-1 study

27 Summary The magnitude of BP-lowering with RDN in Symplicity HTN-1 is significant and sustained through 36 months, when all patients reaching this time-point are included This RDN BP-lowering clinical response was consistent across key subgroups (age, diabetes status, and baseline renal function) Very few clinically significant late adverse events related to RDN were reported through 36 months

28 Conclusions BP-lowering with percutaneous RDN appears to be durable out to 36-months This suggests that nerve re-growth and functional reinnervation do not translate into a clinically significant loss of BP-lowering efficacy of the procedure (at least to this time-point); further longer-term study of these patients required Analysis of key sub-groups did not demonstrate which patients may be hyper- or non-responders to the procedure; larger-scale studies eg registry data required
