    Clinical, Journal:  Bucindolol Decreases Atrial Fibrillation Burden in Patients with Heart Failure and the ADRB1 Arg389Arg Genotype. (Pubmed Central) -  Dec 29, 2021   
    Reductions in plasma norepinephrine (p = 0.038) and NT-proBNP (p = 0.009) were also observed with bucindolol compared to metoprolol. Conclusions - Compared with metoprolol, bucindolol reduced AF burden, improved maintenance of sinus rhythm, and lowered the need for additional rhythm control interventions in patients with HF and the ADRB1 Arg389Arg genotype.

    This independent ex ante economic evaluation suggests that genetically targeted treatment with bucindolol is unlikely to yield clinicoeconomic benefits over empirical treatment with carvedilol in NYHA III/IV HF. Pharmacogenetic-guided bucindolol therapy did not reduce the recurrence of AF/AFL/ACM compared to metoprolol in HFrEF patients, but populations were identified that merit further investigation in future Phase 3 trials.

    [VIRTUAL] Gender, Race, and Age Specific Baseline Predictors of All-Cause Mortality in BEST Identified by Machine Learning (OnDemand) -  Oct 10, 2020 - Abstract #AHA2020AHA_5115;

    Background NHLBI supported Beta-Blocker Evaluation in Survival Trial (BEST) (NCT00000560) was designed to determine if bucindolol hydrochloride would reduce the death rate in patients with moderate to severe heart failure and a left ventricular ejection fraction ≤ 35 percent...Conclusion Using ML, we found in an unbiased fashion, novel unanticipated predictors of ACM in BEST trial. This underscores the value of gender, race and age groups specific predictors of hard associated with CV disease and efficacy of therapeutic interventions in advancing precision medicine.

    Journal:  Dose Response of β-Blockers in Adrenergic Receptor Polymorphism Genotypes. (Pubmed Central) -  Sep 28, 2019   
    Other BBs taken at low dose have reduced efficacy for Arg389Arg genotype subjects compared with 389Gly carriers, suggesting a greater relative treatment effect at high dose. These data support guideline recommendations to use high, clinical trial target doses of all BBs to treat HF with reduced ejection fraction.
