Main funding source(s): Hellenic society of lipidiology, atherosclerosis and cardiovascular disease Background/Introduction:  Optimal medical treatment for heart failure may reverse myocardial dysfunction in the early stages of cardiotoxic treatment. Patients and methods 60 patients age 46,3 ± 12,9 years old, 19 male) with preserved ejection fraction, who suffered from hematologic malignancies (lymphoma, leukemia) and underwent bone marrow transplantation, were randomized to receive 2,5 mg enalapril bid daily or placebo. We measured at baseline, before transplantation, and after three months: i) Global Longitudinal Strain of left ventricle (LV) (GLS), ii) LV Epicardial Strain (GLSepi), iii) LV Endocardial Strain (GLSendo), by speckle tracking imaging, iv) LV End Diastolic ,End Systolic Volume and Ejection Fraction (LVEF). Results   The two treatment groups had similar age, sex atherosclerotic risk factors and cardiotoxic medication before and after bone marrow transplantation. Compared to baseline, patients treated with enalapril did not show a deterioration of LV GLS and GLSepi [ p = 0,540 and p = 0,422)], Conversely, patients treated with placebo group, presented a significant impairment of LV GLS and GLSepi [p = 0,041 and p = 0,028)] three months after bone marrow  transplantation. No significant changes were found in LVEF after treatment with enalapril ( p = 0,692) or the placebo ( p = 0,892).
