Study Summary

LCZ696, a molecular complex of the angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB) valsartan with an inhibitor of neprilysin (NEP, neutral endopeptidase-24.11) sacubitril improved mortality compared to enalapril in patients with heart failure (HF), reduced ejection fraction (EF), and increased brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) or N-terminal pro-BNP (NT-proBNP) in the PARADIGM-HF trial.1 The PIONEER-HF study demonstrated the efficacy of LCZ696 in preventing rehospitalization in patients with acutely decompensated HF.2 LCZ696 has been underutilized in heart failure, in part due to concerns about hypotension. NEP degrades several vasodilator peptides including bradykinin, substance P and brain-type natriuretic peptide. Decreased degradation of endogenous bradykinin could contribute to hypotension at initiation of LCZ696 through vasodilation or through increased natriuresis and diuresis. Inhibition of the bradykinin B2 receptor using icatibant would be expected to prevent this effect. Objectives The main objectives of this mechanistic randomized, double-blind, crossover-design study are: * The primary objective is to test the hypothesis that endogenous bradykinin contributes to effects of ARB/NEP inhibition on blood pressure, natriuresis, and diuresis at initiation. * The secondary objective is to test the hypothesis endogenous bradykinin contributes to effects of ARB/NEP inhibition on blood pressure, natriuresis, and diuresis after up-titration. Eighty (80) subjects with stable heart failure who meet all inclusion/exclusion criteria will be enrolled. Subjects who qualify will collect their urine for 24 hours before each study day for measurement of volume, sodium and potassium. At the start of the study, they will stop their regular angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor or ARB. After a 48-hour washout, they will undergo a study day in which they are given a single dose of 50 mg LCZ696. They will also receive either the bradykinin B2 receptor antagonist icatibant or place
