Key inclusion & exclusion criteria
|
Inclusion criteria: 1. Written informed consent obtained prior to the initiation of any study procedures 2. Male or female subjects, =60 years of age at the time informed consent is obtained 3. Chronic systolic heart failure (HF) of either ischemic or non-ischemic etiology: a) Duration: at least 4 weeks b) Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF): =30% by echocardiography, contrast ventriculography or nuclear imaging c) Functional Capacity: Usually NYHA II (in the investigator’s opinion) d) Treatments (for ACE inhibitors, ARBs and b-blockers, optimal target or maximal tolerated dose [see Appendix 1 of the protocol] unless contraindicated): i) Angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors and/or angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs) ii) b-blocker iii) Diuretic, if clinically indicated to reduce fluid retention 4. Serum potassium (K+) level =5.0mmol/L 5. Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) >30 ml/min/1.73m2 (see Appendix 2 of the protocol) 6. Randomization must occur no later than 90 days from the date of admission for index cardiovascular (CV) hospitalization. (If clinically stable, the subject may be randomized during this index cardiovascular (CV) hospitalization.) Are the trial subjects under 18? no Number of subjects for this age range: F.1.2 Adults (18-64 years) yes F.1.2.1 Number of subjects for this age range F.1.3 Elderly (>=65 years) yes F.1.3.1 Number of subjects for this age range
Exclusion criteria: 1. Patients with severe chronic systolic heart failure, defined as patients who demonstrate symptoms usually at rest despite optimal medical therapy 2. Patients with a myocardial infarction complicated by left ventricular systolic dysfunction and clinical heart failure within 30 days prior to randomization 3. Patients, who in the opinion of the investigator, require treatment with eplerenone or spironolactone 4. Patients, who in the opinion of the investigator, require treatment with potassium-sparing diuretics or potassium supplements 5. History of hypersensitivity to eplerenone or spironolactone 6. Evidence of cardiogenic shock 7. Intra-aortic balloon pump or other mechanical assist device 8. Patients awaiting cardiac transplantation 9. Serum potassium > 5.0 mmol/L within 24 hours prior to randomization 10. Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) =30 ml/min/1.73m2 within 24 hours prior to randomization (see Appendix 2 of the protocol) 11. Concomitant use of potent cytochrome p450 3A4 (CYP3A4) inhibitors, such as but not limited to: a. Ketoconazole b. Itraconazole c. Nefazodone d. Troleandomycin e. Clarithromycin f. Ritonavir g. Nelfinavir 12. Patients with significant hepatic disease, defined as follows: EITHER h. Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) >3 times the upper limit of normal AND/OR i. Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) >3 times the upper limits of normal AND/OR j. Known positive serology for viral hepatitis 13. Patients status-post gastric bypass surgery, partial gastrectomy or other surgery of the gastrointestinal tract that may interfere with the absorption of eplerenone

Primary Outcome(s)
|
Primary end point(s): The primary efficacy endpoint is the composite of cardiovascular (CV) mortality and heart failure (HF) hospitalization.
Cardiovascular (CV) mortality is defined as death due to: Heart Failure Myocardial infarction Cardiac arrhythmia Stroke/cerebral vascular accident (CVA) or transient ischemic attack (TIA) Other CV cause (e.g., aneurysm or pulmonary embolism)
Hospitalization for HF is defined as follows:
1. Admission to an emergency room, observation unit and/or inpatient facility for at least 24 hours
AND
2. HF or suspicion of HF must be a reason for admission, (i.e. an admitting diagnosis)
AND
3. At least one symptom must be present: • Increased dyspnea (at rest and/or with exertion) • Increased orthopnea • Paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnea • Weight gain • Increased fatigue • Decreased exercise tolerance
AND
4. At least one clinical or radiologic sign must be present: • S3 gallop • Post-tussive rales • Jugular venous distension • Hepatojugular reflux • Increased peripheral edema • Pulmonary venous congestion or pleural effusion documented by chest radiography (if performed as part of routine clinical practice)
AND
5. At least one treatment must be instituted: • Increased dose (= 50%) of oral diuretic • New oral diuretic • Intravenous diuretic • Intravenous vasodilator • Intravenous inotrope
AND
6. The patient must be discharged on an oral diuretic to minimize fluid retention
|
Secondary Objective:
|
Main Objective: The primary objective of this trial is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of eplerenone plus standard heart failure (HF) therapy versus placebo plus standard HF therapy on the cumulative incidence of cardiovascular (CV) mortality and HF hospitalization (a composite primary endpoint).
