Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Main Objective: To assess the effect of 6 months treatment with LCZ696 compared with<br>placebo on ratio of pulmonary capillary wedge pressure/cardiac index during exercise in patients with a recent AMI and Doppler echocardiographic signs of diastolic dysfunction and preserved systolic function.<br>;Secondary Objective: To assess the effect of 6 months treatment with LCZ696 compared<br>with placebo in patients with a recent AMI, diastolic dysfunction and preserved systolic function on:<br><br>1. Cardiac fibrosis assessed on cardiac magnetic resonance imaging,<br><br>2. The ST2 cardiac biomarker<br><br>3. Left atrial size and function<br>;Primary end point(s): Ratio of pulmonary capillary wedge pressure to cardiac index at peak<br>exercise after 6 months treatment with LCZ696 or placebo.<br>;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: After 26 weeks.
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Secondary end point(s): 1. Amount of hyperenhancement on cardiac MRI using a semiquantitative assessment of late gadolinium hyperenhacement in a 17 segment model of the LV.<br>2. Biomarker ST2 concentration.<br>3. Left atrial volume and left atrial emptying fraction by echocardiography and MRI at rest.<br>;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: After 26 weeks.
