About the episode

AHA Conference 2024 - Primary safety and efficacy results from ENDEAVOR investigating the effect of myeloperoxidase inhibition with mitiperstat (AstraZeneca) on symptoms and exercise capacity in patients with heart failure with preserved or mildly reduced ejection fraction (HFpEF/HFmrEF).

 

Dr Sanjiv Shah (Bluhm Cardiovascular Institute, Chicago, US) joins us onsite at AHA Conference to discuss the findings from ENDEAVOR (NCT04986202).

 

ENDEAVOR is double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, phase 2b and phase 3 trial investigating the use of mitiperstat in patients with HFpEF and HFmrEF. 709 patients were randomized 1:1:1 to receive either mitiperstat 2.5 mg, 5 mg or placebo. Patients were followed-up from baseline to week 16 and week 24, and the primary outcome measures were the change from baseline of Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire Total Symptom Score and six minute walk distance.

 

Interview Questions:
1.    What is the importance behind the ENDEAVOR trial?
2.    Could you tell us about the mechanism of action behind mitiperstat?
3.    What was the study design and patient population?
4.    What were the key findings?
5.    What further research is needed in this area?

 

Recorded on-site at AHA Conference in Chicago, 2024.

Editors: Yazmin Sadik, Jordan Rance.
Videographers: Mike Knight, Dan Brent, Oliver Miles, Tom Green, David Ben-Harosh.

Support: This is an independent interview produced by Radcliffe Cardiology.

Faculty Biographies

Sanjiv Shah

Sanjiv Shah

Professor

Dr Sanjiv Shah’s clinical expertise and research program are focused on HFpEF and in 2007, Dr Shah started the first dedicated HFpEF program in the world at Northwestern University. 

His research, which spans basic research in animal models, clinical physiologic studies, human clinical trials, and population-based epidemiology studies, has highlighted the heterogeneity and systemic nature of the HFpEF syndrome, and has improved the understanding of the risk factors, pathogenesis, and pathophysiology of HFpEF. 

He is an internationally recognised leading authority on HFpEF and routinely lectures at international cardiology meetings, continuing medical education meetings, and academic institutions.
