Lcz696 an Innovation for Heart Failure
... LCZ696 relative to enalapril seen during the trial was attributable primarily to reductions in the incidence of both sudden death and death due to progressive heart failure. There was no discernible impact of LCZ696 relative to enalapril on the incidence of non-cardiovascular death [26]. Because of ...
