Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Reduction in strain >15% compared to baseline, after 24 weeks of use of Sacubitril/valsartan in patients undergoing chemotherapy with anthracyclines, who have myocardial injury determined by an increase in ultrasensitive troponin above the 99th percentile

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Aumento de troponina ultrassensível e NT pró-BNP após 06 meses de tratamento; Variação da fração de ejeção, dilatação de câmaras cardíacas, alterações dos parâmetros de função diastólica e de massa ventricular pelo ecocardiograma e pela ressonância nuclear magnética após 06 meses de tratamento; queda de fração de ejeção>10% com valor final <53%, pelo ecocardiograma e pela ressonância nuclear magnética após 06 meses de tratamento; variação do strain pelo ecocardiograma após 06 meses de tratamento; alterações de matriz extracelular e fibrose intersticial pela ressonância nuclear magnética após 06 meses de tratamento; incidência de insuficiência cardíaca sintomática, hospitalizações, necessidade de transplante ou morte após 06 meses de tratamento; ocorrência de qualquer efeito adverso relacionados a medicação após 06 meses de tratamento
