1 Achieving Harmony in Blood Pressure Guidelines Around the Globe Roger S. Blumenthal, MD The Kenneth Jay Pollin Professor of Cardiology Director, The Johns Hopkins Ciccarone Center for the Prevention Of Heart Disease Disclosures: None Financial Disclosures/Unapproved Use I have no financial relationships with a commercial entity that is relevant to the content of this presentation. I will/will not reference unlabeled or unapproved uses of drugs or other products. Objectives 1. Review our understanding of normal blood pressure and our definition of hypertension 2. Discuss major trials that have shaped our approach to hypertension Rx, with a focus on recent data (SPRINT, HOPE-3, ACCORD) 3. Introduce the concept of using CVD risk to personalize the treatment of hypertension 4. Summarize novel research in the field 3 1

2 65 year-old man with HTN, obesity (BMI 31), OSA, prediabeteswho is self-referred for CV evaluation. His mean BP in the office on HCTZ 25mg daily is 155/76. What is the optimal SBP goal in this patient? <150 <140 <130 <120 The Changing of Hypertension JNC (JAMA 2003;289(19): Guidelines JAMA. 2014;311(5):

3 Major Points from JNC 8: General population, age 60 years Treat if SBP 150 mmhg for goal SBP <150 mmhg (strong recommendation, grade A) DM, age 18 years Treat if SBP is 140 for goal <140/90 (expert opinion, grade E) The latest on BP guidelines: 2017 Ann Intern Med. [Epub ahead of print 17 January 2017] doi: /M ACP/AAFP Guideline Recommendations 1. Initiate treatment in adults 60 years: if SBP >150 to achieve a target SBP<150 (Grade: strong recommendation, high-quality evidence) 2. In adults 60 years with prior history of TIA or CVA: Target SBP<140 (Grade: Weak recommendation, moderate-quality evidence) 3. In adults 60 years with high cardiovascular risk Target SBP<140 (Grade: weak, low-quality evidence) 3

4 More Recent BP Trials Have Stirred Debate Yusuf and Lonn: doi: /jamacardio But isn t a lower target even better? The SPRINT Research Group. A randomized trial of intensive versus standard blood-pressure control. N EnglJ Med 2015 Nov 9; SPRINT: Is more intensive BP control better? (NEJM 2015 Nov 9) N: 9361 Multicenter RCT: SBP<120 vssbp<140 Inclusion Criteria: SBP (treated or untreated) Age >50 years Increased risk of CVD: Clinical or subclinical CVD (excluding stroke) CKD (egfr 20 to less than 60) Framingham Global CVD Risk 10- year score of 15% Age 75 years Exclusion Criteria: Diabetes Prior stroke 4

5 Baseline Characteristics (NEJM 2015 Nov 9) Intensive Rx vs Standard Rx in SPRINT (NEJM Nov ) mmhg mmhg SPRINT: Primary & Secondary Outcomes (NEJM Nov 9, 2015) Primary Outcomes: MI, non-mi ACS, stroke, heart failure, death from cardiovascular cause 5

6 SPRINT: Adverse Events (NEJM Nov 9, 2015) SPRINT- Cost Effectiveness Intensive BP management cost $23,777 per QALY gained Serious AEs would need to occur at 3 times the rate observed in SPRINT to prefer standard Mx JAMA Cardiol. Published online September 14, doi: /jamacardio Recent Landmark Trials: Risk (re) takes Center Stage What explains the difference in treatment effect between SPRINT and HOPE-3? The most plausible possibility is that they asked fundamentally different questions. SPRINT examined an intensive treatment strategy in a population with elevated BP and at high risk for CVD. The HOPE-3 BP trial examined the value of a fixed-dose BP lowering combination pill, without a specific BP treatment target, in a population where risk for CVD was much lower. PK Whelton et al. Published Online: September 7, doi: /jamacardio

J Hypertens. 2003;21: Using CV Risk to guide BP (and other preventive meds) is not a new idea. That which has been done is that which will be done. So there is nothing new under the sun. Ecclesiastes 1:9 35 Because the goal of antihypertensive therapy is to prevent CVD events,& the likelihood of such events is determined by absolute risk assessment, risk, rather than level of BP, should determine the need for therapy

13 37 Our Research Specifically within the context of a risk-based BP Rx paradigm 1. Can non-contrast CT imaging for CAC provide additional risk information to guide BP Rx decision making? 2. Can blood-based biomarkers be used to monitor impact of blood pressure on individual risk for clinical outcomes? 38 Research Focus No. 1- CAC The King of the Risk Jungle <1 msv 13
