About this study

Official title: Proof of Concept Study to Investigate Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics and the Impact on Pulmonary and Systemic Hemodynamics of a Single Oral Dose of BAY60-4552 in Patients With Biventricular Chronic Heart Failure and Pulmonary Hypertension in a Non-randomized, Non-blinded, Dose Escalation Design.

This study is to demonstrate the safety and tolerability of a single oral dose of BAY60-4552 in a single dose escalation design. Furthermore, this study examines the changes in hemodynamics after application of the test substance.42 hospitalized stable patients with chronic heart failure will be included. Several measurements will be performed to test how good the drug works and wether there are any unwanted reactions to the drug (e.g. blood tests, ECG, heart rate, blood pressure, adverse events). After a observation period the patient will be discharged from the hospital.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing BAY60-4552 in people with Heart Failure, run by Bayer at 2 sites in Germany.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 Aug 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Germany. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change in pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (time frame: Pre-dose and up to 6 hr post-dose). The study lists 7 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00565565, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 10 Aug 2016.
