Metabolic Response to the Initiation of Heart Failure Therapy

This protocol is a component of the CarDia project under the National Institute for Metabolic and Cardiovascular Disease Research (EXCELES Program, ID: LX22NPO5104), which is financed by the European Union - Next Generation EU. It falls under Work Package 5 (WP5), focusing on metabolic disorders in heart failure. The aim of this observational protocol is to track the biochemical and metabolomic reactions to the commencement of standard heart failure medications (SGLT2i, soluble guanylate cyclase-sGC stimulators, sacubitril/valsartan-ARNI) and to assess if the initial response (within the first three months) can predict the disease's progression. The protocol will investigate the temporal changes in parameters that indicate neurohumoral activation, hypoxia response, systemic energy substrate metabolism, iron metabolism, and HIF1A activation in peripheral blood following the initiation of standard heart failure therapy (baseline, 1 day, 1 week, 1 month, 3 months). This study could yield crucial insights into identifying individuals who exhibit a poorer response to the new treatment and are at a higher risk of an unfavorable disease trajectory. Patients will be compared with a control group, who are those without any therapy alteration during the initial observation period (3 months). As an observational study, the decision to initiate therapy will be based solely on medical indications. Heart failure patients at the Cardiocenter of the Institute for Clinical and Experimental Me…
