Stage D Heart Failure Clinical Trial
Official title:
Safety and Efficacy of Angiotensin Receptor-neprilysin Inhibitor After Left Ventricular Assist Device ImplanT (SEAL-IT) Study
The purpose of the study is to evaluate how well tolerated and effective an angiotensin receptor-neprilysin inhibitor (sacubitril-valsartan) is in patients with contemporary durable continuous flow left ventricular assist device (CF-LVAD) implantation compared to usual care oral vasodilator therapy.
The aim of this pilot study is to prospectively determine the short-term (at 3 months) and long-term (at 6 and 12 months) safety and efficacy of an angiotensin receptor-neprilysin inhibitor (sacubitril-valsartan) in patients with contemporary durable continuous flow left ventricular assist device (CF-LVAD) implantation compared to standard-of-care (usual care) oral vasodilator therapy. ;
