About this study

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of oral lixivaptan capsules in subjects with Euvolemic Hyponatremia.

Read the detailed description

Phase I and Phase II clinical trials have demonstrated that lixivaptan may play an important role in treating hyponatremia and the signs and symptoms of water retention associated with HF, LCWA, and SIADH. Lixivaptan was previously evaluated in disease states characterized by hyponatremia with euvolemia (SIADH) and hyponatremia combined with fluid overload (HF, LCWA). Lixivaptan demonstrated correction in serum sodium concentration together with marked aquaresis in subjects with hyponatremia.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • LixivaptanDrug

    Capsules, 25mg lixivaptan or matching placebo once daily. Study medication can be titrated up to 50mg or 100mg once daily. Acceptable dosages are once daily administration of 25mg, 50mg, or 100mg as a single dose.

  • PlaceboDrug

    Capsule. Subjects will be randomized (3:1) on an outpatient basis to 25 mg lixivaptan or matching placebo, once daily.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. To demonstrate that lixivaptan is safe and effective in achieving and maintaining increased serum sodium concentration in subjects with SIADH and other conditions of euvolemic hyponatremia.

    Measured: 6 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. If lixivaptan demonstrates improvement in serum sodium, % of subjects achieving normalized serum sodium, % of subjects requiring fluid restriction, prevention of worsening hyponatremia, and the change from baseline to complete TMT-B.

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Lixivaptan in people with Euvolemic Hyponatremia, run by CardioKine Inc. at 90 sites in 8 countries.

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 5 inclusion and 29 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 28 Jun 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 90 sites in United States, India, Israel, Italy, Czechia and 3 more countries. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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?

To demonstrate that lixivaptan is safe and effective in achieving and maintaining increased serum sodium concentration in subjects with SIADH and other conditions of euvolemic hyponatremia. (time frame: 6 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 28 Jun 2011.
