Projecting the Benefit of Vericiguat in PARADIGM-HF and DAPA-HF populations: Insights from the VICTORIA Trial

ESC Heart FailPublished Secondary analysis of the VICTORIA randomised trial

Authors' conclusion

A trend towards enhanced efficacy of vericiguat in populations simulated from PARADIGM-HF and DAPA-HF was observed.

Study context

Population
VICTORIA participants with high-risk heart failure (HF), subgroups simulating PARADIGM-HF- and DAPA-HF-eligible populations
Participants
5,050 participants
Comparison
Vericiguat vs placebo
Primary endpoint
HF hospitalization or CV death
Methodological detailssimulated trial-eligible subgroups, unadjusted Cox proportional hazards model
  • Simulated trial-eligible subgroups
  • Unadjusted Cox proportional hazards model
