NICE Failed to Recommend Boehringer Ingelheim and Lilly’s Jardiance (empagliflozin) for Heart Failure
Shots:
- NICE was unable to recommend Jardiance for adults with symptomatic chronic HF with preserved or mildly reduced ejection fraction
- In other countries outside of the UK, empagliflozin has already been approved for reimbursement to treat patients with HF & mildly reduced or preserved ejection fraction
- Empagliflozin received a MHRA's marketing authorization as the first effective treatment for symptomatic chronic HF regardless of ejection fraction, based on the P-III trial (EMPEROR-Preserved) results & achieved primary composite EPs (CV death or hospitalization for HF) in adults with an ejection fraction of ≥40%. Both empagliflozin & PBO were added to background therapy in this trial
