PARADIGM-HF: Summary of Findings In heart failure with reduced ejection fraction, when compared with recommended doses of enalapril: LCZ696 was more effective than enalapril in... Reducing the risk of CV death and HF hospitalization Reducing the risk of CV death by incremental 20% Reducing the risk of HF hospitalization by incremental 21% Reducing all-cause mortality by incremental 16% Incrementally improving symptoms and physical limitations LCZ696 was better tolerated than enalapril... Less likely to cause cough, hyperkalemia or renal impairment Less likely to be discontinued due to an adverse event More hypotension, but no increase in discontinuations Not more likely to cause serious angioedema

Criticisms of study Dose of enalopril may not have been optimal; lower than used in clinical practice; valsartan at maximal dose Run in period of the study Hypotension w ARNI Neprilysin also breaks down beta amyloid which builds up in Alzheimer s; long term effect of this drug is unknown 20% reduction in events is really decrease from 26 to 22 % absolute reduction in endpoints
When to Transition from ARB/ACE to ARNI???? Symptomatic on ACE/ARB Asymptomatic but volume overloaded on ACE/ARB with edema, JVD, rales- Consider switching to ARNI rather than increasing diuretic
Corlanor (Ivabradine ) Corlanor is indicated to reduce the risk of hospitalization for worsening heart failure in patients with stable, symptomatic CHF w LVEF < 35% In sinus rhythm with resting HR >70 bpm on maximally tolerated doses of beta blockers or have a contraindication to beta blockers
Contraindications to Corlanor Atrial Fibrillation Acute Decompensated HF BP<90/50 SSS, SA block, or CHB unless PM is present Resting HR<60 Severe hepatic impairment Pacemaker dependence
Systolic Heart Failure Treatment with the I f Inhibitor Trial (SHIFT) Mortality Morbidity Driven Trial of 6,505 patients w CHF Patients received Corlanor or placebo in addition to Standard of Care medications Dose started at 5 mg BID and titrated up or down to 7.5 mg BID or 2.5 mg BID depending on HR Median F/U 23 months

Benefit derived from decrease in hospitalizations not mortality Swedberg, Lancet 2010; Vol 376; p 875
When to Add Ivabradine? At maximum dose of B Blocker but still with a HR >70 bpm In NSR Not totally paced BP >90 systolic
Epidemic of Heart Failure in the US 5.2 million cases 650,000 incidence cases/yr 1 million hospital admissions annually Rehospitalization rate of 25% within 1 month; 50% within 6 months 50% of patients diagnosed with heart failure will die in 5 years 300,000 deaths/yr Cost >$40 billion/yr
