Who cannot take part
Copied verbatim from ClinicalTrials.gov and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.
Prior treatment
- Participation in another concurrent intervention study within 30 days or treatment with an investigational drug within 5 half-lives prior to randomization
- Concomitant use of other angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors or angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARBs), aliskiren, non-steroidal anti-inflammatories (NSAIDs) or lithium or the inability to stop these medications for the study
Other illness
- Active acute or chronic psychiatric illness that in the opinion of the investigator may prevent compliance with study instructions
- Greater than mild mitral or aortic valve regurgitation/stenosis known pre-cancer therapy
- Evidence of Coronavirus (COVID-19) within the last 60 days or recent (21 days) exposure to close personal contact with COVID-19.
- Greater than moderate tricuspid or pulmonary valve regurgitation/stenosis known pre-cancer therapy
- Hemodynamically significant congenital heart disease in the opinion of the investigator (not including patent foramen ovale (PFO)/small atrial septal defect (ASD) or small ventricular septal defect (VSD))
- Constrictive cardiomyopathy diagnosed pre-cancer therapy
- Family history of genetic cardiomyopathy
- Symptomatic heart disease based on New York Heart Association (NYHA) classification
- Allergy to valsartan or sacubitril
- Inability to complete cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) or 6-minute walk test
- Inability to measure non-invasive blood pressure and heart rate in the ambulatory/home setting
- History of severe hypersensitivity reactions to gadolinium-based contrast agents (will perform limited cardiac imaging without contrast)
Lab values
- Severe kidney disease (glomerular filtration rate (GFR) \<30 milliliters (mL)/minute (min)/1.73 meters squared (m2))
- Chronic hyperkalemia (\>5millimoles per liter (mmol/L))
Age
- -Age \<18 years
Other
- Inability to obtain consent from patient or legally authorized representative
- Limited English or Spanish proficiency that in the opinion of the investigator may prevent understanding the content of the informed consent form or safely completing the study procedures
- Greater than moderate pericardial effusion
- Evidence of infiltrative cardiomyopathy
- Pregnant/lactating
Who the study is looking for
- Age \</= 39 years old at time of cancer diagnosis
- Clinical records adequate to determine diagnosis and treatment regimen
- Previous anthracycline chemotherapy
- Global longitudinal strain \<18% and/or
- Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) below the institutional lower limit of normal but \>/=40% on echocardiogram or cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)
- No symptoms of heart failure (shortness of breath, fatigue, swelling). Ordinary physical activity does not cause undue fatigue, palpitation, dyspnea (shortness of breath).
