• Therapeutic options are limited for patients with advanced heart failure who become refractory to conventional pharmacological therapies
• The injection of biomaterials into diseased myocardium has been shown to reduce myofiber stress, LV wall stress, restore LV geometry and improve LV function1,2
• Algisyl® is a medical device that consists of an alginate hydrogel that is injected into the midwall of the LV, where it remains as a permanent implant that is intended to reduce LV wall stress and prevent or reverse the progression of HF
• Results of the AUGMENT-HF 6-month primary endpoint analysis were presented at this meeting in 2014 and published earlier this summer3

Peak VO2 - Mean Change from Baseline
Algisyl was superior to SMT at 12 months with a mean treatment effect of 2.10 mL/kg/min (CI 0.96–3.24). Algisyl patients completed the 1 year follow-up with a mean peak VO2 of 14.0 (±3.1) mL/min/kg
9
Anaerobic Threshold – Mean Change from Baseline
AT is independent of patient motivation or effort. Algisyl was superior to SMT with a mean treatment effect of 2.34 mL/kg/min (CI 1.35–3.32) at 12 months (p<0.001).

NYHA Functional Class at 12 months
At 12 months, 85% of patients in the Algisyl group were NYHA functional class I or II compared to 25% of patients on SMT. Only 4 patients in the Algisyl group remained in NYHA class III at 12 months. These differences were highly statistically significant. The odds ratio favoring improvement by one class for Algisyl was 31.90 (CI 7.6–133.4); P < 0.001

AUGMENT-HF II – Large US PMA Study (recent FDA cleared IDE)
•Sample size of 240 patients, randomized 1:1 versus usual care
•Endpoints essentially identical to the prior AUGMENT-HF study
•Peak VO2 and Combined HF hospitalization and mortality
The Future of Algisyl
Algisyl as a Percutaneous Intervention
16
• We previously reported that Algisyl injections can be administered safely in patients with advanced HF, with an acceptable 30 day post-operative morbidity & mortality.
• The one-year follow-up results from AUGMENT-HF trail demonstrate sustained long term benefits of the Algisyl implant procedure in patients with advanced HF
• Algisyl combined with SMT provided substantial improvements in functional capacity & HF symptoms when compared to patients on SMT alone at 1 year post treatment.
• The 1 year MACE suggest a potential favorable reduction in HF hospitalization in patients treated with Algisyl. However there was a trend towards higher CV mortality at 1 year for patients receiving Algisyl.
• Longer term observations for this patient cohort and larger studies will provide important insights into clinical outcomes such as HF hospitalization and CV mortality
Conclusions

These results of the one year follow-up will be published online as an Epub ahead of print in the European Journal of Heart Failure following this presentation
