About this study

Official title: A Multicenter, Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled (Standard Therapy + Placebo) Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of the Tolvaptan Tablets in Patients With Non-hypovolemic Non-acute Hyponatremia

This drug has been developed to treat Hyponatremia. The primary purpose of this study is to verify the efficacy and safety of seven-day repeated oral administration of tolvaptan at 15, 30, and 60 mg or placebo in patients with Non-hypovolemic Non-acute Hyponatremia secondary to Congestive Heart Failure (CHF), hepatic cirrhosis or Syndrome of Inappropriate Antidiuretic Hormone (SIADH), despite receiving standard therapy. This study is being conducted in China.

What is being measured

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

  1. The change of average daily Area Under the Curve (AUC) of serum sodium by day 4 and 7 comparing with baseline serum sodium level within the double-blind therapy period

    Measured: 4 and 7 days

Secondary outcomes (12)
  1. Percentage of patients with normalized serum sodium at Day 4

    Measured: 4 day

  2. Percentage of patients with normalized serum sodium at Day 7

    Measured: 7 day

  3. Time to first normalization in serum sodium

    Measured: up to 7 days

  4. Change from baseline in serum sodium at Day 4

    Measured: 4 day

  5. Change from baseline in serum sodium at Day 7

    Measured: 7 day

  6. Percentage of patients requiring fluid restriction at any time during the double-blind therapy period of the study

    Measured: up to 7 days

  7. 24-hour urine output

    Measured: day 1, day 2, day 3, day 4, day 5, day 6 and day 7

  8. Change from baseline in body weight (hypervolemic patients only)

    Measured: day 1, day 2, day 3, day 4, day 5, day 6 and day 7

  9. Fluid balance (hypervolemic patients only)

    Measured: day 1, day 2, day 3, day 4, day 5, day 6 and day 7

  10. The percentage of patients who are designated as treatment failure due to the need for saline infusion, with or without fluid restriction

    Measured: up to 7 days

  11. For CHF patients, improvement of symptoms and relevant physical examination measures

    Measured: day 1, day 2, day 3, day 4, day 5, day 6 and day 7

  12. For hepatic edema patients, improvement of symptoms and relevant physical examination measures or ultrasound test findings

    Measured: day 1, day 2, day 3, day 4, day 5, day 6 and day 7

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing Tolvaptan in people with Non-hypovolemic Non-acute Hyponatremia, run by Jiangsu HengRui Medicine Co., Ltd. at 3 sites in China.

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 17 inclusion and 0 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Jan 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in China. 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 combined phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Fusheng Wang, PhD (fswang@public.bta.net.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The change of average daily Area Under the Curve (AUC) of serum sodium by day 4 and 7 comparing with baseline serum sodium level within the double-blind therapy period (time frame: 4 and 7 days). 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 11 Jan 2012; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
