About this study

Official title: Is Sacubitril-valsartan Superior to Dapagliflozin in Improving Myocardial Function and Performance in Patients with Ischemic Cardiomyopathy Undergoing Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting Post-operatively in the Intensive Care Unit

The aim of this study is to assess whether sacubitril-valsartan is more effective than dapagliflozin in improving function, myocardial performance in patients undergoing CABG operation or not

Read the detailed description

Coronary revascularization has matured as a field since coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) was first developed over 50 years ago, with diagnostic and treatment methods have advanced dramatically. CABG remains the standard of care for obstructive coronary artery disease, particularly for patients with multivessel disease or diabetes. (1) Despite significant therapeutic advances, patients with chronic heart failure (HF) remain at high risk for HF progression and death. Sacubitril/valsartan (previously known as LCZ696) is a first-in-class medicine that contains a neprilysin (NEP) inhibitor (sacubitril) and an angiotensin II (Ang-II) receptor blocker (valsartan). NEP is an endopeptidase that metabolizes different vasoactive peptides including natriuretic peptides, bradykinin and Ang-II. In consequence, its inhibition increases mainly the levels of both, natriuretic peptides (promoting diuresis, natriuresis and vasodilatation) and Ang-II whose effects are blocked by the angiotensin receptor blocker, valsartan (reducing vasoconstriction and aldosterone release). (2) Sacubitril-valsartan has been used selectively in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and ischemic cardiomyopathy due to safety concerns. In a prospective observational study done by Narayan and his colleagues in Patients with Ischemic Cardiomyopathy Undergoing Off-Pump Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting Primary outcome was tolerability and safety profile. Thirty consecutive patients undergoing CABG with EF <40% were included. No mortality or readmissions occurred during 6 months' follow-up. One patient only experienced hypotension requiring discontinuation. Mild elevation in blood urea nitrogen, so Sacubitril-valsartan is well tolerated in patients with reduced EF undergoing CABG and proved its safety and efficacy. (3) Dapagliflozin is a highly potent, reversible and selective sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitor indicated worldwide for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. In numerous well-designed clinical studies dapagliflozin as monotherapy and combination therapy with other antihyperglycemic agents provided effective glycemic control and reduced bodyweight and blood pressure (BP) across a broad spectrum of patients. Dapagliflozin reduced the rate of cardiovascular (CV) death or hospitalization for heart failure (HF), did not adversely affect major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) and possibly reduced progression of renal disease in patients with established atherosclerotic CV disease (CVD) or multiple risk factors for CVD.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • myocardial function after surgeryDiagnostic test

    This group includes (15) patients who will have 200 mg twice daily oral (5) sacubitril-valsartan 1 month before the operation. transthoracic echo will be done before and after surgery, also total dose if inoptropic drugs will be noted

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. heart rate

    heart rate in beat per minute

    Measured: baseline just after the surgery and every 2 hours for 24 hours post operatively

  2. Ejection fraction (EF)

    myocardial function using transthoracic echo

    Measured: 1.base line before start of medications 2.the day before surgery 3. just after surgery in the intensive care 4. 24 hours after surgery

  3. blood pressure

    mean arterial blood pressure

    Measured: baseline just after the surgery then every 2 hours for 24 hours post operatively

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. inotropic drugs

    total dose of inotropic drugs

    Measured: after addmitting to the intensive care just after surgery for the 1st 24 hours post operatively

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing myocardial function after surgery in people with Heart Failure, run by Ain Shams University at 1 site in Egypt.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 7 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Sep 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Egypt. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

heart rate (time frame: baseline just after the surgery and every 2 hours for 24 hours post operatively). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 5 Sep 2024.
