  1. Multicenter Randomized Controlled Trial of Cardiac Contractility Modulation in Patients with Advanced Heart Failure William T. Abraham MD, Koonlawee Nademanee MD, Kent Volosin MD, Steve Krueger MD, Suresh Neelagaru MD, Nirav Raval MD, Owen Obel MD, Stanley Weiner MD, Mark Wish MD, Peter Carson MD, Kenneth Ellenbogen MD, Robert Bourge MD, Mike Parides MD, Richard P Chiacchierini PhD, Rochelle Goldsmith PhD, Sidney Goldstein MD and Alan Kadish MD on Behalf of the FIX-HF-5 Investigators and Coordinators* *Dr. Abraham and other members of this group have received consulting fees and/or research grants from Impulse Dynamics

  2. Cardiac Contractility Modulation (CCM)Background • Preclinical and prior clinical studies have demonstrated that CCM: • Increases cardiac contractility • Reduces myocardial work • Produces LV reverse remodeling • Induces molecular changes (in genes, proteins and phosphorylation) indicative of improved calcium handling and contractile function

  3. CCM Muscle Force The Concept Behind Cardiac Contractility Modulation (CCM) Duration Delay Amplitude Apply electric signal during absolute refractory period Detect local activation

  5. FIX-HF-5 Trial • Multi-center, unblinded, randomized, parallel- controlled clinical trial • 50 participating centers (all US) • 6-month efficacy endpoint • 1-year safety endpoint • First US randomization occurred on April 8, 2005 and the last on June 12, 2007 • Last follow-up completed June 2008

  6. FIX-HF-5: Study Schematic Informed Consent Baseline Testing Eligibility Determination Group 1 Group 2 Device Implantation 12 Months Medical Control 2 week Run-In 12 Months CCM 5 hr/day Study visits at: Baseline, 12Wk, 24Wk and 50Wk

  7. FIX-HF-5: Study Endpoints • Primary Safety Endpoint: Composite of all-cause mortality and all-cause hospitalization assessed by non-inferiority analysis (active versus control group with 12.5% allowable delta) • Primary Efficacy Endpoint: Anaerobic Threshold (AT) assessed by responders analysis (≥20% increase in AT = responder) • Secondary Efficacy Endpoints: • Peak VO2 • Minnesota Living with Heart Failure Questionnaire • Other Efficacy Endpoints • NYHA Functional Class Ranking • 6-Minute Hall Walk Distance • Subgroup Analyses • Ischemic vs nonischemic • EF above or below the median • NYHA Class III vs IV

  8. Metabolic Exercise Testing and Core Lab • Single core laboratory where a detailed procedure was followed for objective determination of AT (using the V-slope method) by two independent readers blinded to treatment group • On-site training on standardized procedures for conducting metabolic exercise tests and electronic data transfer to the core laboratory • Site revalidation every 6 months • Rapid feedback on test quality from the core laboratory (on the day the tests were performed) • Despite these efforts, it was anticipated that substantial number of tests would be classified as indeterminate, either because of poor test quality, inability of subjects to reach AT, or because of poor subject compliance

  13. Primary Safety Endpoint All-Cause Mortality Plus All-Cause Hospitalizations • Control Group: • 103 events in 213 subjects = 48% • CCM Group: • 112 events in 215 subjects = 52% • Statistical tests confirm that the safety endpoint was met: • Blackwelder: p=0.034 (p<0.05=noninferior) • Log-Rank test: p=0.22 (p>0.05=noninferior)

  23. Potential Study Limitations • Choice of anaerobic threshold as a primary endpoint • Missing VAT data despite rigorous approach to metabolic exercise testing • Use of responders analyses • Un-implanted control group (no blinding)

  24. FIX-HF-5: Summary • CCM failed to improve the anaerobic threshold, pre-specified as the primary endpoint of the trial • In the overall population, CCM significantly improved • Peak VO2 • Quality of Life (MLWHFQ score) • NYHA • In a subgroup comprising ~50% of study population (EF≥25, NYHA III), CCM significantly improved • Peak VO2 • AT • MLWHFQ • NYHA
