Oral Nitrite for Older Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction (ONOH)
10 de janeiro de 2020 atualizado por: Daniel Forman, MD, Gladwin, Mark, MD
Nitrite Benefits to Mediate Fatigability in Older HFpEF Patients
This is a randomized double blinded controlled trial of 20-40 mg sodium nitrite tid in subjects with HFpEF.
Primary outcomes are measures of physical function with non-invasive and invasive cardiopulmonary exercise testing, and fatigability, skeletal muscle bioenergetics, serology including inflammatory markers and platelet bioenergetics, quality of life measures.

Descrição detalhada
Age-related physiological changes predispose to heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF).
Thus, HFpEF prevalence is escalating as the older population expands.
High mortality and morbidity, diminished quality of life, and spiraling healthcare costs are typical consequences, and no effective HFpEF therapy is known.
Therefore, several small exercise training (ExT) trials for HFpEF stand out by showing that ExT result in improved aerobic exercise capacity and infer that ExT constitutes novel substantive therapy.
Nonetheless, such benefit was evident only after months of moderate to high intensity ExT; regimens that are unfeasible for most patients.
In fact, poor compliance with ExT is typical in most HFpEF patients.
The investigators propose there are intrinsic physiological components of HFpEF pathophysiology that predispose to "fatigability".
The investigators advance the concept of fatigability by quantifying it as a performance-based measure; i.e., subjective tiring during a standardized steady-state walking (perceived fatigability) and deterioration of self-selected walking speed over time (performance fatigability).
The investigators assert that therapies to reduce fatigability will enhance HFpEF outcomes.
Ongoing studies reveal pleiotropic benefits of oral inorganic nitrite (NO2), including enhanced performance of skeletal muscle (metabolism and bioenergetics) and vasomotor responses (systemic and pulmonary).
The investigators' pilot work shows safety and biological efficacy of oral NO2 capsules.
Thus, the investigators propose a randomized, controlled, double-blinded trial to study oral NO2 therapy in older (≥70 years) HFpEF patients.
Aim 1 explores the utility of NO2 capsules to reduce perceived and performance fatigability (rated perceived exertion), improve aerobic capacity (peak oxygen uptake) and increase daily activity (accelerometry).
Aim 2 delineates the mediating processes by which NO2 benefits are achieved.
Skeletal muscle determinants are differentiated from the right and left heart vasomotor dynamics by integrating assessments using 31Phosphorus magnetic resonance spectroscopy and percutaneous needle muscle biopsies with those made using non-invasive and invasive cardiopulmonary exercise testing, near infrared spectroscopy and other techniques.
The principal investigator is trained geriatrics and cardiology, and is solidly oriented to the dynamics of aging and cardiovascular disease (clinically and mechanistically) with particular expertise in functional assessment and skeletal muscle gene expression as determinants of performance.
The investigative team provides formidable synergies that are well-suited to this translational investigation of systemic, cellular, and sub-cellular physiological dynamics.
Our proposal is significant in multiple respects: 1) HFpEF is endemic with aging and constitutes a critical contemporary healthcare challenge today's growing population of older adults.
2) Fatigability is rooted in HFpEF pathophysiology, but it has not previously been addressed as a key part of management.
3) NO2 therapy is a novel and compelling therapeutic strategy.
4) Mechanisms underlying fatigability are clarified; we advance principles of patient-centered care by clarifying mechanisms that underlie a patient's experience of fatigability.

Patients will also be asked to avoid non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medications (NSAIDs) for 2 days prior to the biopsy.

- HF secondary to significant uncorrected primary valvular disease (except mitral regurgitation secondary to left ventricular dysfunction). If valve replacement has been performed, patient may not be enrolled for 12 months after this procedure.

- Mechanical valve replacement requiring warfarin
- Peripheral or pulmonary artery disease
- Currently taking clopidogrel for a recent stent placement and/or a complex atherosclerotic lesion such that holding clopidogrel creates disproportionate risk.
