背景-联合抑制血管紧张素转换酶(ACE)和中性内肽酶(NEP)可能比单独抑制ACE对心力衰竭产生更大的益处。方法和结果-我们随机将5770例纽约心脏协会II至IV级心力衰竭患者分为两组,一组用ACE抑制剂依那普利,另一组用依那普利,(10 mg BID,n=2884)或ACE-NEP抑制剂omapatrilat(40 mg每日一次,n=2886),平均14.5个月。主要终点-死亡或因需要静脉治疗的心力衰竭住院的综合风险-被前瞻性地用于检验优效性和非劣效性假设(基于依那普利在左心室功能不全研究[SOLVD]治疗试验中的作用)。依那普利组有973例患者达到主要终点,奥马曲拉组有914例患者达到主要终点(风险比0.94; 95% CI:0.86 - 1.03,P=0.187)-符合非劣效性但不符合优效性的预定标准,Omapatrilat组的心血管死亡或住院风险降低9%(P=0.024),死亡风险降低6%(P=0.339)。在SOLVD治疗试验(其中包括所有的心力衰竭住院治疗)中使用的定义的主要终点的事后分析显示,与omapatrilat(名义P=0.012)治疗的患者的风险降低了11%,结论omapatrilat降低慢性心力衰竭的死亡和住院治疗的风险,但在降低主要临床事件的风险方面并不比单独使用ACE抑制剂更有效。在次要和事后分析中观察到的支持omapatrilat的组间差异值得进一步研究。
Background-Combined inhibition of the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) and neutral endopeptidase (NEP) may produce greater benefits in heart failure than ACE inhibition alone.Methods and Results-We randomly assigned 5770 patients with New York Heart Association class II to IV heart failure to double-blind treatment with either the ACE inhibitor enalapril (10 mg BID, n=2884) or to the ACE-NEP inhibitor omapatrilat (40 mg once daily, n=2886) for a mean of 14.5 months. The primary end point-the combined risk of death or hospitalization for heart failure requiring intravenous treatment-was used prospectively to test both a superiority and noninferiority hypothesis (based on the effect of enalapril in the Studies of Left Ventricular Dysfunction [SOLVD] Treatment Trial). A primary end point was achieved in 973 patients in the enalapril group and in 914 patients in the omapatrilat group (hazard ratio 0.94; 95% CI: 0.86 to 1.03, P=0.187)-a result that fulfilled prespecified criteria for noninferiority but not for superiority, The omapatrilat group also had a 9% lower risk of cardiovascular death or hospitalization (P=0.024) and a 6% lower risk of death (P=0.339). Post hoc analysis of the primary end point with the definition used in the SOLVD Treatment Trial (which included all hospitalizations for heart failure) showed an 11% lower risk in patients treated with omapatrilat (nominal P=0.012).Conclusion-Omapatrilat reduces the risk of death and hospitalization in chronic heart failure but was not more effective than ACE inhibition alone in reducing the risk of a primary clinical event. Between-group differences in favor of omapatrilat observed in secondary and post hoc analyses warrant further study.
