Design of the rospective Comparison of ngiotensin eceptor-Neprilysin Inhibitor Versus Pl cebo in Patients With ongenital stemic ight entricle Heart Failure (PARACYS-RV) Trial
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The presence of a systemic right ventricle (sRV) with biventricular physiology (biV) is associated with increased patient morbidity and mortality. To date, no pharmacologic therapy for heart failure has been proven effective for patients with systolic dysfunction of the sRV-biV. We designed a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled crossover trial to compare sacubitril/valsartan treatment to placebo in adults (aged ≥ 18 years) with moderate-to-severe sRV-biV dysfunction and New York Heart Association functional class II to III symptoms. Two primary efficacy endpoints are assessed in the trial: exercise capacity (submaximal exercise duration) and neurohormonal activation (N-terminal prohormone brain natriuretic peptide). Secondary objectives include assessing a change in the Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire score and evaluating the safety and tolerance of sacubitril/valsartan. A 6-week open run-in phase identifies the maximum tolerated dose of sacubitril/valsartan, up to 97 mg/103 mg twice daily. After a 2-week washout period, patients are randomized 1:1 to sacubitril/valsartan treatment vs placebo for a 24-week phase, followed by another 2-week washout period and subsequent crossover to the alternative treatment arm for an additional 24-week phase. Data to assess primary and secondary endpoints are collected at baseline and at the end of each phase. A total of 48 patients is required to provide > 80% power to detect a 30% difference in distance walked and in N-terminal prohormone brain natriuretic peptide levels with sacubitril/valsartan treatment vs placebo, each with a 2-sided P -value of 0.025. In summary, the P rospective Comparison of A ngiotensin R eceptor-Neprilysin Inhibitor vs Pl a cebo in Patients With C ongenital S ys temic R ight V entricular Heart Failure Trial (PARACYS-RV) should determine the role of sacubitril/valsartan in treating heart failure in patients with sRV-biV and carries the potential to alter management of this patient population.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
