About this study

Official title: A Phase 2a, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Parallel Design Study to Evaluate the Pharmacodynamics, Safety, and Tolerability of AZD1722 in End-Stage Renal Disease Patients on Hemodialysis

The purpose of this study is to determine if the study drug is safe, tolerable and active in reducing fluid overload/weight gain between dialysis sessions for patients with End Stage Renal Disease on Hemodialysis.

Read the detailed description

This is a Phase 2, multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacodynamics of the study drug in male and female patients with end-stage renal disease on hemodialysis. The study consists of a 2 week treatment-free run-in period where entry criteria are verified, a 4-week treatment period, of which the first week of treatment will be performed as an in-patient study in a clinical pharmacology unit (CPU) and the remaining three weeks of treatment will performed as an out-patient study, and a 2-week treatment-free follow-up period.

Safety assessments will be performed at regular intervals and will include clinical and vital signs, clinical laboratory evaluations, ECGs, and AE monitoring. Pharmacodynamic assessments will include, but are not limited to, interdialytic weight gain (IDWG), blood pressure, and stool sodium excretion. Pharmacokinetic assessments will include blood sampling for measurement of study drug plasma concentrations.

What participants receive

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

  • AZD1722 (in-patient)Drug

    Also called RDX5791, Tenapanor

    doses between 5 and 60 mg BID may be administered based on tolerability in a CPU setting

  • Placebo (in-patient)Drug

    Placebo, size and color matched to experimental drug administered in a CPU

  • AZD1722 (out-patient)Drug

    Also called Tenapanor

    doses between 5 and 45 mg BID

  • PlaceboDrug

    Placebo, size and color matched to experimental drug

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in Mean Weekly Interdialytic Weight Gain (IDWG)

    Patients are weighed pre dialysis prior to their first dialysis of the week. This measure looks at the change in pre-dialysis weight over time

    Measured: Run-in period (Weeks -2 and -1) versus Week 4 (end of treatment)

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Stool Sodium Content

    The amount of sodium in a days worth of stool output

    Measured: Days 1 through 7

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing AZD1722 (in-patient) and AZD1722 (out-patient) in people with End Stage Renal Disease and Chronic Kidney Disease Stage 5, run by Ardelyx at 3 sites in United States.

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 4 inclusion and 4 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 2020. 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 United States. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 10 Aug 2020). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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 Mean Weekly Interdialytic Weight Gain (IDWG) (time frame: Run-in period (Weeks -2 and -1) versus Week 4 (end of treatment)). 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 10 Aug 2020.
