P687Is sacubitril/valsartan useful in patients with cancer and heart failure? Data from HF-COH Spanish multicenter registry

Current guidelines recommend sacubitril/valsartan (S/V) for patients (p.) with heart failure and reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) but there is lack of evidence of its efficacy and safety in p. with cancer and heart failure. Our aim was to analyze the potential benefit of S/V in specific cardio-oncology clinics. Methods We performed a retrospective multicenter registry (HF-COH) in six Spanish hospitals with cardio-oncology clinics including all p. treated with S/V. Clinical and echocardiographic data, NYHA functional class, type of neoplasms and anti-tumoral treatment were described. Median follow-up was 7.2 [7.9] months. Results Sixty-one p. were included (median age was 64 [21] years old; 64%women, 43% hypertensive, 54% dyslipidemics and 28% diabetics). Most of p. (97%) had cancer therapy related cardiac dysfunction (CTRD) with a median time from anti-cancer therapy to CTRD of 40 [132] months. Breast (46%) and hematological (38%) cancers were the most frequent neoplasms, 31% of p. had metastatic disease and 71% had been treated with anthracyclines. In 5% S/V was initiated at CTRCD diagnosis while in 95% S/V was started to improve clinical status in p. already treated with ACE inhibitors or ARBs. 87% were on beta-blocker therapy and 74% on mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists.Maximal S/V titration dose was achieved in 8.2% of p. (24/26mg: 43%; 49/51mg: 33%) S/V was discontinued in 4 p. (reasons: 2 hypotension; 1: renal failure; 1: pruritus) Baseline NT-proBNP levels, functional class, and LVEF improved at the end of follow-up in p. who continued with S/V (all p values ≤0.01). No statistical differences were found in creatinine clearance or potassium serum levels. Table Patient parameters before and after S/V Before S/V After S/V P value LVEF (%) 33 [7] 39.5 [15] Conclusions Our experience suggests that S/V is well tolerated and improves functional class and left ventricular function parameters in patients with CTRCD.
