sacubitril/valsartan (LCZ696)
Initial dose for patients randomized to sacubitril/valsartan (LCZ696) was determined by the blood pressure at the time of randomization. Study treatment was titrated to the target dose of sacubitril/valsartan (LCZ696) 97/103 mg bid (Dose Level 3). Titration was based on blood pressure at the time of the visit. Dose adjustments were only allowed if indicated per protocol defined safety and tolerability criteria and investigator judgement.
Patients were required to take a total of two tablets twice daily (one tablet of active sacubitril and valsartan and one tablet of enalapril matching placebo pack).
sacubitril/valsartan (LCZ696)
sacubitril/valsartan (LCZ696) tablet with minimum dose 24/26 mg, maximum dose 97/103 mg twice daily administered orally.
enalapril matching placebo
enalapril matching placebo tablet with minimum dose 2.5 mg, maximum dose 10 mg twice daily administered orally.
Enalapril
Initial dose for patients randomized to enalapril were determined by the blood pressure at the time of randomization. Study treatment were titrated to the target dose of enalapril 10 mg bid. Titration were based on blood pressure at the time of the visit. Dose adjustments were only allowed if indicated per protocol defined safety and tolerability criteria and investigator judgement.
Patients were required to take a total of two tablets twice daily (one tablet of active enalapril, second from sacubitril and valsartan matching placebo pack)
Enalapril
Enalapril tablet with minimum dose 2.5 mg, maximum dose 10 mg twice daily administered orally.
sacubitril/valsartan (LCZ696) matching placebo
matching placebo of sacubitril/valsartan (LCZ696) tablet with minimum dose 24/26 mg, maximum dose 97/103 mg twice daily administered orally.

Eligibility Criteria
Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.
Inclusion Criteria
2. Currently hospitalized for ADHF. Patients with a diagnosis of acute heart failure had to have symptoms and signs of fluid overload (i.e. jugular venous distention, edema or rales on auscultation or pulmonary congestion on chest x-ray) at time of hospitalization.
3. Eligible patients will be randomized no earlier than 24 hours and up to ten days after presentation while still hospitalized as long as meet the following definition of stable status:
* SBP ≥100mm Hg for the preceding 6 hours prior to randomization; no symptomatic hypotension
* No increase (intensification) in i.v. diuretic dose within last 6 hours prior to randomization
* No i.v. inotropic drugs for 24 hours prior to randomization
* No i.v. vasodilators including nitrates within last 6 hours prior to randomization
4. LVEF ≤40% within the past 6 months (including current hospitalization) using echocardiography, multi gated acquisition scan (MUGA), CT scanning, MRI or ventricular angiography, provided no subsequent study documented an EF of \>40%.
5. Elevated NT-proBNP ≥ 1600pg/mL OR BNP ≥400 pg/mL during current hospitalization.
Exclusion Criteria
2. Enrollment in any other clinical trial involving an investigational agent or investigational device.
3. History of hypersensitivity, known or suspected contraindications, or intolerance to any of the study drugs, including ACEIs, ARBs, or Sacubitril (NEP inhibitor).
4. Patients with a known history of angioedema related to previous ACE inhibitor or ARB therapy.
5. Requirement of treatment with both ACE inhibitor and ARB.
6. eGFR \< 30 ml/min/1.73 m2 as measured by the simplified Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) formula at screening.
7. Serum potassium \> 5.2 mEq/L at screening.
8. Known hepatic impairment (as evidenced by total bilirubin \> 3 mg/dL, or increased ammonia levels, if performed), or history of cirrhosis with evidence of portal hypertension such as varices
9. Acute coronary syndrome, stroke, transient ischemic attack; cardiac, carotid or other major CV surgery; percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) or carotid angioplasty, within one month prior to Visit 1.
10. Pregnant or nursing (lactating) women, where pregnancy is defined as the state of a female after conception and until the termination of gestation, confirmed by a positive hCG laboratory test.
11. Women of child-bearing potential, defined as all women physiologically capable of becoming pregnant, including women whose career, lifestyle, or sexual orientation precludes intercourse with a male partner and women whose partners have been sterilized by vasectomy or other means, UNLESS they are using two birth control methods.
