Trial Outcomes

Change From Baseline in B-Type Natriuretic Peptide (Pro-BNP) at Month 6 and Month 14

Adjusted ratio to baseline in geometric mean in Pro-BNP in the blood. Ratio to Baseline = On-therapy geometric mean divided by baseline geometric mean. A lower score signifies improvement. Change from baseline adjusted for baseline value and angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor use at baseline. Analysis uses natural logarithms of excretion rate values. (NCT00095238)
Timeframe: Baseline, Month 6, Month 14

Change From Baseline in the New York Heart Association (NYHA) Functional Class at Month 6, Month 10, Month 14, and Final Visit

NYHA functional classification=4-tiered system relating symptoms to everyday activities & quality of life. (See Reporting Groups for description of each class.) Change of NYHA functional class from baseline was grouped into 3 categories: improved, unchanged, or worsened (based on case report form [CRF] assessment). If a post-randomization CRF assessment was missing or participant died, was hospitalized for worsening heart failure or discontinued study medication for worsening heart failure, the participant was classified as Major Event. (NCT00095238)
Timeframe: Baseline, Month 6, Month 10, Month 14, Final Visit. The trial was designed to end after 1440 primary endpoint events, projected duration=6.0 ± 0.5 years.

Mean Change From Baseline in Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR) at Month 6, Month 18, and Month 30

Based on the Cockcroft-Gault formula calculation, a commonly used surrogate marker to estimate creatinine clearance, which in turn is an approximate measure of GFR. It employs serum creatinine measurements and a patient's weight to predict the creatinine clearance. Adjusted for baseline GFR and angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor use at baseline (ACE-I). A decrease from baseline signifies worsening. The adjusted mean change from baseline value is from the model (calculated prior to rounding), whereas the other two points are the baseline mean and post mean. (NCT00095238)
Timeframe: Baseline, Month 6, Month 18, Month 30

Mean Change From Baseline in Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR)at Month 42, Month 54, Month 66

Based on the Cockcroft-Gault formula calculation, a commonly used surrogate marker to estimate creatinine clearance, which in turn is an approximate measure of GFR.

A decrease from baseline signifies worsening. The adjusted mean change from baseline value is from the model (calculated prior to rounding), whereas the other two points are the baseline mean and post mean. (NCT00095238)
Timeframe: Baseline, Month 42, Month 54, Month 66

Blood Pressure

Difference in Diastolic Blood Pressure. Repeated measures multivariable analysis of variance (MANOVA) at time points 0, 12, 24, and 48 weeks (NCT00389168)
Timeframe: Baseline to 48 weeks

Effects on Carotid Artery Wall Thickness

Changes in common carotid artery intima-media thickness, assessed by ultrasonography. (NCT00389168)
Timeframe: Baseline to 48 weeks

Number of Participants With Serious Adverse Events

Safety was assessed by non-directed questions, and all observed and volunteered adverse events were recorded at each study visit. Serious adverse events were defined by, and reported according to the regulations of good clinical practice (GCP). none were considered related to the study medication. (NCT00389168)
Timeframe: Treatment period was baseline to 48 weeks

Changes in Left Ventricular Mass Index

Repeated measures multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) at time points 0, 12, 24, and 48 weeks. Data are presented as left ventricular mass in gram (g) indexed for body mass index (in m^2). (NCT00389168)
Timeframe: Baseline and 48 weeks

Changes of Venous Plasma Angiotensin II as a Marker of the Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System

Venous plasma concentrations of angiotensin II were measured in order to study the possible associations between the activity of the renin-angiotensin-aldosteone system and changes in left ventricular mass. Further analyses of other components of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system and of other hormonal system (e.g. the sympathetic nervous system) have also been performed and published. Repeated measures MANOVA at time points 0, 12, 24, and 48 weeks. Data were log-transformed to avoid skewness before statistical evaluation. However, tabular data are given as mean values with 95% confidence to improve readability. (NCT00389168)
Timeframe: Baseline to 48 weeks

Left Ventricular Diastolic Function Assessed by the E/A Ratio

Changes in left ventricular diastolic function from baseline to week 48 will be evaluated as the difference in E/A ratio. Conventional pulsed wave Doppler echocardiography was used for recordings of mitral inflow in. The peak of early (E) and late (A) mitral flow velocities were measured, and the E/A-ratio was calculated. Repeated measures MANOVA at time points 0, 12, 24, and 48 weeks. Some echocardiographic recordings at some time point may be of insufficient quality or missing, and the number of observations may not always correspond to the total number of participants at all time points. (NCT00389168)
Timeframe: Baseline to 48 weeks
