34 New natriuretic peptides: ularitide In 1988, Urodilatin, a renally synthesized isoform of ANP was isolated from human urine. Both experimental and early clinical trials demonstrated therapeutic effects of urodilatin (diuresis, natriuresis, vasodilation, reduction of PCWP) to a greater extent than ANP. In SIRIUS I (n=24 pts) and II (n=221pts) ularitide caused a greater improvement of CI and reduction of SVR and NT-proBNP than placebo persisting at 24 hours (neutral effect on 30-day mortality and renal function). Ularitide at 30 ng/kg/min caused SBP reduction/ hypotension in 16% of pts. (SBP< 80 mm Hg in 10.9% of pts) Mitrovic et al. Am Heart J 2005;150:1239 Mitrovic et al. Eur Heart J 2006; 27:2823

44 CONCLUSION Patient education and further implementation of treatment guidelines are essential approaches to improve outcomes in HF. There are still no Class I effective therapies in AHF in comparison to CHF. Investigational drugs targeting to novel pathophysiologic concepts are promising treatment approaches and ongoing trials will define their clinical efficacy and safety.
