Heart Failure Pipeline: Understanding

Heart Failure: Overview

Heart failure (HF) is a syndrome caused by structural and functional defects in myocardium resulting in impairment of ventricular filling or the ejection of blood. The most common cause for HF is reduced left ventricular myocardial function. Major pathogenic mechanisms leading to HF are increased hemodynamic overload, ischemia-related dysfunction, ventricular remodeling, excessive neuro-humoral stimulation, abnormal myocyte calcium cycling, excessive or inadequate proliferation of the extracellular matrix, accelerated apoptosis and genetic mutations. Heart failure is a pathological condition in which the heart is unable to pump enough blood to the rest of the body, because it is either unable to fill with a sufficient volume of blood or unable to generate sufficient force to pump out enough blood. Dysfunction of the pericardium, myocardium, endocardium, heart valves or great vessels alone or in combination is also associated with HF.

Heart failure can severely decrease the functional capacity of a patient and increase mortality risk. It is imperative to diagnose and effectively treat the disease to prevent recurrent hospitalizations, improve quality of life, and enhance patient outcomes. The treatment of heart failure requires a multifaceted approach involving patient education, optimal medical regimen to improve cardiac contractility, and prevention/limitation of exacerbations. The cardinal manifestations of HF are dyspnea and fatigue, which may limit exercise tolerance and fluid retention, which may lead to pulmonary and/or splanchnic congestion and/or peripheral edema. Heart failure, remains a stubborn problem and is now considered to be the greatest challenge in cardiovascular medicine and surgery.

Heart Failure Emerging Drugs Chapters

This segment of the Heart Failure report encloses its detailed analysis of various drugs in different stages of clinical development, including phase II, I, preclinical and Discovery. It also helps to understand clinical trial details, expressive pharmacological action, agreements and collaborations, and the latest news and press releases.

Heart Failure Emerging Drugs

Tirzepatide: Eli Lilly and Company

Tirzepatide is a once-weekly dual glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist that integrates the actions of both incretins into a single novel molecule. GIP is a hormone that may complement the effects of GLP-1. In preclinical models, GIP has been shown to decrease food intake and increase energy expenditure therefore resulting in weight reductions, and when combined with a GLP-1 receptor agonist, may result in greater effects on glucose and body weight. Tirzepatide is in phase 3 development for chronic weight management and heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF).

Finerenone (BAY94-8862): Bayer

Finerenone (BAY 94-8862) is an investigational novel, non-steroidal, selective mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist (MRA) that has been shown to block the harmful effects of the overactivated mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) system. MR overactivation is a major driver of heart and kidney damage. Current steroidal MRAs on the market have proven to be effective in reducing cardiovascular mortality in patients suffering from heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). However, they are often underutilized due to the incidence of hyperkalemia, renal dysfunction, and anti-androgenic / progestogenic side effects.

The initiation of the Phase III FINEARTS-HF study (FINerenone trial to investigate Efficacy and sAfety superioR to placebo in paTientS with Heart Failure) builds upon the robust Phase II studies ARTS-HF and ARTS-DN which investigated the efficacy and safety of finerenone in patients with heart failure and chronic kidney disease, respectively. Data from the Phase II study program ARTS were presented at ESC Congress 2015 in London.

CardiAMP Cell Therapy: BioCardia

CardiAMP Cell Therapy uses a patient’s own (autologous) bone marrow cells delivered to the heart in a minimally invasive, catheter-based procedure to potentially stimulate the body’s natural healing response. The CardiAMP Cell Therapy Heart Failure Trial is the first multicenter clinical trial of an autologous cell therapy to prospectively screen for cell therapeutic potency in order to improve patient outcomes. CardiAMP Cell Therapy incorporates three proprietary elements not previously utilized in investigational cardiac cell therapy, which the company believes improves the probability of success of the treatment: a pre-procedural diagnostic for patient selection, a high target dosage of cells, and a proprietary delivery system that has been shown to be safer than other intramyocardial delivery systems and more successful for enhancing cell retention.

Firibastat: Quantum Genomics

Firibastat is the first drug candidate in a new class of therapeutic agents called BAPAIs (Brain Aminopeptidase an Inhibitors). Firibastat is a prodrug that releases EC33, a specific and selective inhibitor of Aminopeptidase A in the brain, thereby preventing the production of angiotensin III in the brain. After collecting excellent data on animal efficacy and human safety in the Phase IIa study, Quantum Genomics announced the design of its Phase IIb study in heart failure last June 2018 with Firibastat. Firibastat currently is in Phase II for the Heart Failure.

HU 6: Rivus Pharmaceuticals

HU6 is a controlled metabolic accelerator (CMA) that provides a novel, measured approach to activating proton leak and mitochondrial uncoupling, a natural process in the body that regulates and dissipates energy. By ferrying protons out of the mitochondrial intermembrane space, CMAs cue the increased oxidation of sugars and fats, while maintaining the same baseline production of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Activating this process results in the reduction of accumulated fat throughout the body.
