Inclusion Criteria

Written informed consent must be obtained before any assessment is performed.

Male or female patients greater than equal to 18 years of age.

At least one of the following 8 risk factors:

Age greater than equal to 70 years

eGFR less than 60 mL per min per1.73 m2 based on MDRD formula at screening visit

Type I or II diabetes mellitus

Documented history of prior MI supported by ECG changes and or elevation of

cardiac enzymes consistent with MI diagnosis.

Atrial fibrillation as noted by ECG, associated with index MI

LVEF less than 30percent associated with index MI

Worst Killip class III or IV associated with index MI requiring intravenous treatment

STEMI without reperfusion therapy within the first 24 hours after presentation.

Hemodynamically stable defined as:

SBP greater than equal to 100 mmHg at randomization for patients who received ACE inhibitor or ARB during the last 24 hours prior to randomization (ACE inhibitor/ARB Yes patients)

SBP greater than equal to 110 mmHg at randomization for patients who did not receive ACE inhibitor/ARB during the last 24 hours prior to randomization (ACE inhibitor/ARB No patients)

No intravenous treatment with diuretics, vasodilators, vasopressors and/or inotropes

during the last 24 hours prior to randomization.

Evidence of LV systolic dysfunction and/or pulmonary congestion requiring intravenous

treatment associated with the index MI event defined as:

LVEF less than equal to 40percent assessed locally by echocardiography, magnetic resonance imaging, cardiac CT, radionuclide or contrast ventriculography after index MI presentation and prior to randomization.

(These examinations may be performed as part of patient standard-of-care. In case multiple LVEF measurements have been performed during index event, the last one performed prior to randomization should be considered as the qualifying measurement), and/or

- Pulmonary congestion requiring intravenous treatment during the index hospitalization

supported by clinical assessment (worst Killip class, II or above; see Appendix 3 for

Killip class definition) or radiological findings. Radiological evidence of pulmonary

congestion is defined as pulmonary venous congestion with interstitial or alveolar

edema and must be supported by at least one chest X-ray or CT scan.

Exclusion Criteria

1. Known history of chronic HF prior to randomization

2. Cardiogenic shock within the last 24 hours prior to randomization

3. Persistent clinical HF at the time of randomization

4. Coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) performed or planned for index MI.

5. Clinically significant right ventricular MI as index MI

6. Symptomatic hypotension at screening or randomization

7. Patients with a known history of angioedema

8. Stroke or transient ischemic attack within one month prior to

randomization

9. Known or suspected bilateral renal artery stenosis

10. Clinically significant obstructive cardiomyopathy

11. Open-heart surgery performed within one month prior to

randomization or planned cardiac surgery within the 3 months after

randomization

12. eGFR < 30 ml/min/1.73 m2 as measured by the Modification of Diet in

Renal Disease (MDRD) formula at screening

13. Serum potassium > 5.2 mmol /L at screening

14. Known hepatic impairment (as evidenced by total bilirubin > 3.0

mg/dL or increased ammonia levels, if performed), or history of

cirrhosis with evidence of portal hypertension such as varices

15. Previous use of LCZ696 or EntrestoTM

16. Use of other investigational drugs within 30 days prior to screening

17. History of hypersensitivity to the study drugs or drugs of similar

chemical classes

18. Known intolerance or contraindications to study drugs or drugs of

similar chemical classes including ACE inhibitors, ARB or NEP

inhibitors

19. Patients taking medications prohibited by the protocol that cannot be

discontinued for the duration of the study

20. History of malignancy of any organ system (other than localized basal

cell carcinoma of the skin) within the past 3 years with a life

expectancy of less than 1 year.
