ABSTRACT
AIMS:
Mitiperstat (formerly AZD4831) is a novel selective myeloperoxidase inhibitor. Currently, no effective therapies target comorbidity-induced systemic inflammation, which may be a key mechanism underlying heart failure with preserved or mildly reduced ejection fraction (HFpEF/HFmrEF). Circulating neutrophils secrete myeloperoxidase, causing oxidative stress, microvascular endothelial dysfunction, interstitial fibrosis, cardiomyocyte remodelling and diastolic dysfunction. Mitiperstat may therefore improve function of the heart and other organs, and ameliorate heart failure symptoms and exercise intolerance. ENDEAVOR is a combined, seamless phase 2b-3 study of the efficacy and safety of mitiperstat in patients with HFpEF/HFmrEF.METHODS:
In phase 2b, approximately 660 patients with heart failure and ejection fraction >40% are being randomized 111 to mitiperstat 2.5 mg, 5 mg or placebo for 48 weeks. Eligible patients have baseline 6-min walk distance (6MWD) of 30-400 m with a <50 m difference between screening and randomization and Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire total symptom score (KCCQ-TSS) ≤90 points at screening and randomization. The dual primary endpoints are change from baseline to week 16 in 6MWD and KCCQ-TSS. The sample size provides 85% power to detect placebo-adjusted improvements of 21 m in 6MWD and 6.0 points in KCCQ-TSS at overall two-sided alpha of 0.05. Safety is monitored throughout treatment, with a focus on maculopapular rash. In phase 3 of ENDEAVOR, approximately 820 patients will be randomized 11 to mitiperstat or placebo.CONCLUSION:
ENDEAVOR is the first phase 2b-3 study to evaluate whether myeloperoxidase inhibition can improve symptoms and exercise capacity in patients with HFpEF/HFmrEF.Palavras-chave
