NCT05348226

Brief Summary

A prospective, single centre, observational cohort study at University Hospital Southampton NHS Foundation Trust of 50 consecutive patients with Heart Failure with reduced Ejection Fraction and Ejection Fraction ≤35% who are eligible for sacubitril/valsartan (Entresto) initiation as per European Society of Cardiology guidelines. Participants will have baseline and repeat cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) scans after 4-6 months of Entresto therapy. The CMR scans will be compared. Clinical outcomes at 6 months including combined outcome of death and/or heart failure hospitalisation, KCCQ-12 questionnaire, 6-minute walk test, routine blood tests and NTproBNP will also be described. This study will be the first to examine the effects of sacubitril/valsartan (Entresto) therapy on left ventricular reverse remodelling in patients with symptomatic HFrEF as demonstrated by Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Left Ventricular Volume quantified on Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging

    Left ventricular Volume quantified in (ml)

    6 months

  • Indexed Left Ventricular Volume quantified on Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging

    Weight and Height will be combined to calculate Body Surface Area (m2). Left Ventricular Volume in (ml) will be divided by Body Surface Area to give indexed value (ml/m2)

    6 months

  • Ejection Fraction quantified on Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging

    Ejection Fraction quoted in (%)

    6 months

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Cardiac Fibrosis quantification as measured by T1 mapping on Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging

    6 months

  • Strain Analysis as measured by feature tracking on Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging

    6 months

Other Outcomes (4)

  • Combined outcome of death and/or heart failure hospitalisation

    6 months

  • Quality of Life assessment: KCCQ-12 questionnaire

    6 months

  • Quality of Life assessment: 6 Minute Walk Test

    6 months

  • +1 more other outcomes

Interventions

Standard of care medical treatment with sacubitril/valsartan (Entresto). Additional Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging (CMR) Scan after 4-6 months of treatment.
