Primary Outcome(s)
|
Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Effort will be made to follow-up subjects that prematurely stop study medication to collect at least information for the primary endpoint. The time point of final analysis will be based on number of CV deaths. In addition to the final analysis, an interim analysis for efficacy is planned at the time when approximately 75% of the planned number of CV death events are observed and the median follow up time is at least 10 months. At the interim analysis the primary composite endpoint of time to CV death or HF hospitalization and its component time to CV death will be tested. A futility analysis will be performed with the option to terminate the study early if it is determined at the time of analysis that the study is unlikely to demonstrate the efficacy of vericiguat on the primary endpoint
|
Secondary Objective: In subjects with HFrEF on a background of standard of care: (1) To evaluate the efficacy of MK-1242 (vericiguat) in increasing the time to CV death in comparison to placebo. (2) To evaluate the efficacy of MK-1242 (vericiguat) in increasing the time to first HF hospitalization in comparison to placebo. (3) To evaluate the efficacy of MK-1242 (vericiguat) in increasing the time to total HF hospitalizations (first and recurrent) in comparison to placebo. (4) To evaluate the efficacy of MK-1242 (vericiguat) in increasing the time to the first occurrence of the composite of all-cause mortality or HF hospitalization in comparison to placebo. (5) To evaluate the efficacy of MK-1242 (vericiguat) in increasing the time to all-cause mortality in comparison to placebo. (6) To evaluate the safety and tolerability of MK-1242 (vericiguat).
|
Main Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of the oral soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC) stimulator MK-1242 (vericiguat) in comparison to placebo on a background of standard of care in increasing the time to first occurrence of the composite of CV death or HF hospitalization in subjects with HFrEF.
|
Primary end point(s): The primary endpoint of the study is the time-to first occurrence of the composite of CV death or HF hospitalization. This endpoint integrates the cause-specific components CV death and HF hospitalization and is the most frequently used primary endpoint in recent Phase III HFrEF trials. Subjects without a HF hospitalization or CV death at the time of analysis will be censored at the time of a non-CV death or time of last information available for subjects still alive at time of analysis.
|
Secondary Outcome(s)
|
Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Analogous to the analysis of the primary endpoint, the analysis of the secondary efficacy endpoints will be performed under the intention to treat principle. All subjects randomized will be included in the analysis. Subjects will be analyzed as randomized.
In addition to the final study analyses, at the efficacy interim analysis the primary endpoint and the secondary endpoint of time to CV death will be tested. The study can only be terminated early for success if both the primary endpoint and the CV death endpoint are statistically significant based on the pre-specified interim analysis boundaries.
|
Secondary end point(s): The secondary study endpoints are:
• Components of the primary composite endpoint:
- Time to CV death
- Time to first HF hospitalization
• Time to total HF hospitalizations (first and recurrent)
• Time to first occurrence of the composite of all-cause mortality or HF hospitalization
• Time to all-cause mortality
