Brief Summary: INTRODUCTION While pharmacological treatments specifically targeted to the cardio-circulatory system have been largely investigated scanty controlled data are available concerning the role of dietary and metabolic approaches in the managementoutcome of patients with heart failure A large scale randomized clinical trial is proposed to test the effects of a n-3 PUFA and b a lipid lowering agent on top of the best recommended treatments for heart failure

STUDY DESIGN

The GISSI-HF is a prospective multicenter randomized double blind placebo controlled study with randomized allocation of patients with a clinical diagnosis of heart failure to

Randomization 1 R1 n-3 PUFA 1 g daily vs corresponding placebo Randomization 2 R2 rosuvastatin 10 mg daily vs corresponding placebo

OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY PRIMARY OBJECTIVES

To demonstrate that in patients with heart failure treated at the best of recommended therapies long term administration of a n-3 PUFA b rosuvastatin is more effective than the corresponding placebo in the reduction of

All-cause mortality
All-cause mortality or hospitalizations for cardiovascular reason

OTHER END-POINT MEASURES OF EFFICACY

To assess that long term administration of a n-3 PUFA b rosuvastatin is more effective than corresponding placebo in the reduction of

Cardiovascular mortality
Cardiovascular mortality or hospitalizations for any reason
Sudden cardiac death
Hospitalizations for any reason
Hospitalizations for cardiovascular reasons
Hospitalizations for congestive heart failure
Myocardial infarction
Stroke
