The Return of Renal Denervation

Disclosures: Renal Denervation is investigational and not FDA-approved

Black (RDN: 85; sham: 49) Non-Black (RDN: 264; sham: 120)
RDN better
Race/ethnicity – an adherence issue?
Symplicity HTN-3 Investigators. NEJM 2014;370:1393-401 J Am Soc Hypertens 2015;9(10):769–779
-Black participants on tid and qid drugs had a placebo effect of -26 mmHg!! -This does not explain why the trial was negative, but points out that adherence was a major confounder
Explanation #4 Incomplete denervation
• Operator experience
How would have TAVR or MitraClip faired if most participating centers would have performed one or two TAVRs?
Explanation #5 Incomplete denervation
1. Number of nerves: Proximal>distal
2. Distance from arterial wall: Proximal>distal
1. Distal ablations were discouraged (RAS)
2. Proximal ablation may not have reached nerves
Explanation #5 Incomplete denervation
More ablations greater BP reduction
Kandzari et al. Eur Heart J. 2015 Jan 21;36(4):219-27
Explanation #6… Trial Design Issues
• Confounders: – Compliance not measured (~5 BP meds) – High rate of Central sympatholytics (49% vs.
44%) which increase BP variability and with non-compliance give very labile BP estimates
• Medication changes: – 40% of patients had medication changes prior to
the primary outcome – 69% of those were deemed medically necessary
THE NEW CHAPTER
Optimal care plus RDN (N=106) • Open-label trial of 106 patients randomized stepped
protocolized treatment intensification vs. RDN plus stepped care
• Treatment effect of RDN was 6 mmHg reduction of 24-hour SBP (p=0.03)
Azizi M et al. Lancet 2015; 385: 1957–65
Optimal care plus RDN (N=71) • Sham-controlled trial of 71 patients randomized
stepped protocolized treatment intensification vs. RDN plus stepped care
• In the per-protocol cohort, RDN group had greater ambulatory BP reduction
• Kidney function as estimated by the glomerular filtration rate remained
unchanged at 6 months

2 month results
RADIANCE-HTN-SOLO
Unpublished-submitted to ACC 2019
6 month results
• Stepped care if BP >135/85 mmHg at 2 months: 1. amlodipine 5 2. ACEi/ARB 3. HCTZ 12.5->25
• Embargoed results BUT we are HAPPY
Other pending trials
• RADIANCE-HTN TRIO: uncontrolled on triple combination pill, 50% enrolled
• RADIANCE-HTN 2: extension of SOLO for FDA approval
• SPYRAL: pivotal trials are being designed
RDN in summary • Despite the disappointing Symplicity-HTN 3 trial (which
had flaws), new rigorous data demonstrates a significant and clinically meaningful BP reduction in patients with or without medications
• Don’t forget: a sustained 10 mmHg SBP reduction lowers risk of stroke by 30%, MI by 23%, CV mortality by ~25%!
• The magnitude of BP reduction was grossly
overestimated in uncontrolled trials. RDN will not replace medications in most (it does in a few)
• Pivotal trials for FDA approval are currently underway: RADIANCE 2 (start 12/2018)
