BACKGROUND: Interleukin-1 (IL-1) blockade appears to improve anaerobic exercise in patients with systolic heart failure through improved left ventricular systolic performance. However, it is unclear whether IL-1 blockade affects left ventricular systolic performance. METHODS: We pooled data from two clinical trials of patients with systolic heart failure who were randomized to IL-1 blockade or placebo. We estimated changes in left ventricular systolic performance (left ventricular ejection fraction [LVEF] and end-systolic elastance [LV(Ees)]) and pressure-volume area, a surrogate of oxygen consumption, after 14 days of treatment. RESULTS: LVEF increased from 30% (24–38%) to 36% (29–43%) between baseline and day 14 only in anakinra-treated patients (P=0.03 for within-group change and P=0.02 for between-group change compared to placebo). LV(Ees) increased from 1.0 mm Hg/mL (0.7–1.5) to 1.3 mm Hg/mL (0.8–1.6) in anakinra-treated patients between baseline and day 14 but not in placebo-treated patients (P=0.03 for within-group change and P=0.08 for between-group change). A change in PVA between baseline and 14 days was not detected in either anakinra or placebo patients. CONCLUSIONS: In this post-hoc analysis, LV(Ees) and LVEF increased significantly in patients treated with an IL-1 blocker but not in placebo-treated patients. An effect of IL-1 blockade on calculated pressure-volume area was not detected. |
