Sacubitril/Valsartan and Prevention of Cardiac Dysfunction During Adjuvant Breast Cancer Therapy: The PRADA II Randomized Clinical Trial.
Trial report in Circulation, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT03760588 (PRevention of cArdiac Dysfunction During Adjuvant Breast Cancer Therapy), which is not on this map. Cited by 22 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Abstract
backgroundAnthracycline- and trastuzumab-associated cardiotoxicity may lead to cardiac dysfunction and dose reduction or halt of potentially life-saving adjuvant cancer therapy. Whether angiotensin receptor/neprilysin inhibitors can prevent cancer therapy-related cardiac dysfunction and injury remains to be established.
methodsPRADA II (Prevention of Cardiac Dysfunction During Adjuvant Breast Cancer Therapy) was a randomized, parallel-group, placebo-controlled, double-blind, multicenter trial conducted at 4 academic medical centers in Norway that evaluated the cardioprotective effect of sacubitril/valsartan versus placebo administered concomitantly with anthracycline-containing breast cancer therapy and continued for 18 months. The target dose was 97/103 mg BID. The primary outcome was change in left ventricular ejection fraction by cardiovascular magnetic resonance from prior to initiation of chemotherapy to 18 months thereafter. Secondary outcomes included change in echocardiographic global longitudinal strain, circulating cardiac troponins, and NT-proBNP (N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide).
resultsIn total, 138 women (mean±SD age: 54.0±9.4 years) were randomized. The overall decline in left ventricular ejection fraction from baseline to 18 months was 2.2 percentage points (95% CI, 1.1 to 3.3) in the placebo group and 1.1 percentage points (95% CI, -0.01 to 2.2) in the sacubitril/valsartan group. The between-group difference was 1.1 percentage points (95% CI, -0.4 to 2.7;
conclusionsAnthracycline-based treatment for early breast cancer was associated with a reduction in left ventricular ejection fraction that was not significantly attenuated by sacubitril/valsartan. REGISTRATION: URL: https://www.clinicaltrials.gov; Unique identifier: NCT03760588.
