The positive results of PARADIGM-HF, along with evidence of improved cardiac biomarkers and remodeling with sacubitril-valsartan use in HFpEF patients, led to the PARAGON-HF trial.PARADIGM-HF, which evaluated sacubitril-valsartan vs enalapril in patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), reported a decrease in mortality, risk of hospitalization for heart failure, symptoms and physical limitations in such patients.To date, there are no proven treatments to reduce the morbidity and mortality in patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), with therapies mainly focused on symptomatic relief and treatment of co-existing conditions.for the PARAGON-HF Investigators and Committee Rizkala, Pharm.D., Jianjian Gong, Ph.D., Victor C.
