Cardiac resynchronisation therapy (CRT) is effective treatment for selected patients with heart failure (HF) but has ~30% non-response rate. We evaluated whether specific biomarkers can predict outcome.
A prospective single-centre pilot study of consecutive unselected patients undergoing CRT for HF between November 2013 and December 2015 evaluating cardiac extracellular matrix biomarkers and micro-ribonucleic acid (miRNA) expression before and after CRT assessing ability to predict functional response and survival. Each underwent three assessments (pre-implant, 6 weeks and 6 months postimplant) including: New York Heart Association (NYHA) class, echocardiography, electrocardiography, 6 min walk test (6MWT), Minnesota Living with Heart Failure Questionnaire (MLHFQ) and N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-pro-BNP). Plasma markers of cardiac fibrosis assessed were: N-terminal pro-peptides of collagen I and III, collagen I C-terminal telopeptides (CTx) and matrix metalloproteinases (MMP-2 and MMP-9) as well as a panel of miRNAs (miRNA-21, miRNA-30d, miRNA-122, miRNA-133a, miRNA-210 and miRNA-486).
A total of 52 patients were recruited; mean age (±SD) was 72.4±9.4 years; male=43 (82.7%), ischaemic aetiology=30 (57.7%), mean QRS duration=166.4±23.5 ms, left bundle branch block (LBBB) morphology = 39 (75.0%), mean NYHA=2.7±0.6, 6MWT=238.8±130.6 m, MLHFQ=46.4±21.3 and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF)=24.3%±8.0%. Mean follow-up=1.7±0.3 and 5.8±0.7 months. There were 27 (55.1%) functional responders (3 no definable 6-month response; 2 missed assessments and 1 long-term lead displacement). No marker predicted response, however, CTx and LBBB trended most towards predicting functional response.
No specific biomarkers reached significance for predicting functional response to CRT. CTx showed a trend towards predicting response and warrants further study.

心脏再同步治疗(CRT)是治疗特定心力衰竭(HF)患者的有效方法,但有~30%的无反应率。我们评估了特定生物标志物是否能预测治疗结果。
一项前瞻性单中心试点研究,纳入了2013年11月至2015年12月期间连续入选的接受CRT治疗HF的患者,评估CRT前后心脏细胞外基质生物标志物和微小核糖核酸(miRNA)表达,以评估预测功能反应和生存的能力。每位患者接受三次评估(植入前、植入后6周和6个月),包括:纽约心脏协会(NYHA)分级、超声心动图、心电图、6分钟步行试验(6MWT)、明尼苏达心力衰竭生活问卷(MLHFQ)和N末端脑钠肽前体(NT-pro-BNP)。评估的心脏纤维化血浆标志物包括:I型和III型胶原的N末端前肽、I型胶原C末端肽(CTx)和基质金属蛋白酶(MMP-2和MMP-9)以及一组miRNA(miRNA-21、miRNA-30d、miRNA-122、miRNA-133a、miRNA-210和miRNA-486)。
共招募了52例患者;平均年龄(±标准差)为72.4±9.4岁;男性43例(82.7%),缺血性病因30例(57.7%),平均QRS时限=166.4±23.5毫秒,左束支传导阻滞(LBBB)形态39例(75.0%),平均NYHA=2.7±0.6,6MWT=238.8±130.6米,MLHFQ=46.4±21.3,左心室射血分数(LVEF)=24.3%±8.0%。平均随访时间=1.7±0.3和5.8±0.7个月。有27例(55.1%)功能反应者(3例在6个月时无明确反应;2例错过评估,1例长期导线移位)。没有标志物能预测反应,然而,CTx和LBBB在预测功能反应方面最具趋势性。
没有特定的生物标志物在预测CRT功能反应方面达到显著水平。CTx显示出预测反应的趋势,值得进一步研究。
