Neurohumoral activation plays a major role in the pathophysiology. So in consequence, the cornerstone of its medical treatment is based on the inhibition of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) and the sympathetic nervous system, According to this, all patients with HF and reduced ejection fraction should be treated with an angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI) or an angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB) plus a beta blocker (BB) and if needed, a mineralocorticoid recep- tor antagonist (MRA).展开更多

Sacubitill valsartan (previously known as LCZ696) is a new oral agent approved for the treatment of symptomatic chronic heart failure in adults with reduced ejection fraction. It is described as the fast in class angiotensin receptor neprilysin inhibitor (ARNI) since it incorporates the neprilysin inhibitor, sacubitril and the angiotensin Ⅱ receptor antagonist, valsartan. Neprilysin is an endopeptidase that breaks down several vasoactive peptides including natriuretic peptides (NPs), bradykinin, endothelin and angiotensin II (Ang-II). Therefore, a natural consequence of its inhibition is an increase of plasmatic levels of both, NPs and Ang-Ⅱ (with opposite biological actions). So, a combined inhibition of these both systems (Sacubitril / valsartan) may enhance the benefits of NPs effects in HF (natriuresis, diuresis, etc) while Ang-Ⅱ receptor is inhibited (reducing vasoconstriction and aldosterone release). In a large clinical trial (PARADIGM-HF with 8442 patients), this new agent was found to significantly reduce cardiovascular and all cause mortality as well as hospitalizations due to HF (compared to enalapril). This manuscript reviews clinical evidence for sacubitril valsartan, dosing and cautions, future directions and its considered place in the therapy of HF with reduced ejection fraction.展开更多
