Evaluation of the Entresto Effect on Sympathic Nervous System in Patient With Heart Failure (B2AN-SNS)

February 5, 2019 updated by: University Hospital, Toulouse

Evaluation of the Effect of Double Inhibition of Angiotensin II AT1 Receptor and Neprilysin Activity on Sympathic Nervous System Activity in Patient With Heart Failure

The hyperactivation of the sympathetic nervous system is a feature of the heart failure and the determinants of disease progression and risk of sudden cardiac death. This research project aims to study, in the drug use conditions provided in the summary of product characteristics based on European marketing authorization (indications and dosage), the effect of the Entresto® on the activity of sympathic nervous system using the reference method, the microneurographic recording of sympathetic activity in muscle destiny (MSNA). This study will try to determine if the double inhibition of AT1 receptor and neprilysin activity result in lower sympathic nervous system burst rate versus single AT1 receptor inhibition using angiotensin-converting-enzyme inhibitor or AT1 receptor of angiotensin II inhibitor.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (ADULT, OLDER_ADULT)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers
