About this study

Official title: A Phase Ib, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Single-site Trial to Determine the Safety and Efficacy of a Novel Renal-Specific Peptide, ANX-042, in Enhancing GFR Without Significant Hypotension in Human Cardiorenal Syndrome (CRS): ANX-042 Aim #1

The purpose of this study is to look at kidney function and hormonal function in patients with a history of heart failure and kidney dysfunction, and to see how the use of a new drug, ANX-042, affects those functions.

Read the detailed description

Subjects will have a choice of admitting the night prior to renal clearance study day or the day of. Subjects will admit (fasting) to the Clinical Research and Trials Unit, after 3 weeks of diet compliance, the morning of the first renal clearance study day. They will avoid taking any sulfa containing medications and Probenecid for 72 hours prior to Visit Two and Visit Three. They will complete a 24-hour urine collection which will be assessed for creatinine clearance, microalbumin and sodium concentration and excretion. A pregnancy test will be performed, if necessary. Their first urine void after admitting will be collected for protein analysis. Brief physical exam (same as at Visit 1) will be performed by a qualified Study Team Member. Their usual morning dose of medications will be held until given initial water load prior to start of renal clearance infusion. Echocardiogram to determine systolic, diastolic function and cardiac output will be performed prior to the start of study drug infusion. A bladder ultrasound will be performed after their first void. If subject is unable to sufficiently empty their bladder, a urinary catheter will be placed with their permission. The subjects will be placed in the supine position for 1 hour. During the first 15 minutes, two standard intravenous (IV) catheters will be placed (one in each arm). One catheter will be used for infusion and the other (in the contralateral arm) for blood sampling. Subjects will be asked to drink 5 mL/Kg of water initially and then drink an amount equal to the urine output, and blood drawn, after each clearance period to ensure sufficient urinary flow. A priming dose (calculated according to body size) of iothalamate (0.06 mg/Kg) to measure glomerular filtration rate (GFR) will be infused, followed by a constant rate IV sustaining dose (calculated according to estimated kidney function) of iothalamate to achieve steady-state plasma concentrations of 15 to 20 mg/L. The subjects will be asked to empty their bladder spontaneously at the end of each clearance period.

After an equilibration period of 45 minutes, urine and blood samples will be collected at 30-minutes to determine the baseline GFR and urinary sodium excretion (UNaV). Blood pressure will be measured at 20-minute intervals for the first 2 hours, then every 30 minutes, by using automatic blood pressure cuff. Heart rate will be continuously monitored by electrocardiography. Urinary samples for determination of volume, sodium, potassium, and iothalamate will be obtained at the end of each clearance period. Venous blood samples for iothalamate and sodium will be obtained at the middle of each clearance period. During the first clearance, venous blood samples for renin, aldosterone, angiotensin II, AnxA1, Atrial Natriuretic Peptide (ANP), Brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) and cGMP will be obtained and urine samples for Annexin A1(AnxA1) and cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) will also be obtained. Buffy coat from Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) vacutainer tubes will be saved for possible future DNA analysis.

After the baseline renal clearance, subjects will be randomized to receive infusion of active study drug or placebo for 8 hours. The research pharmacist will prepare the study drug or placebo infusion, thus both the patients and investigators will be blinded. Renal clearance and blood draws will be carried out every 2 hours during the infusion as described above (4 times), and blood draw for assays at the end of 4 and 8 hours infusion as listed above. Another echocardiogram will be repeated after 4 hour of drug infusion. Subjects will be given 3 meals throughout the day. Dismissal will occur after one hour of post-infusion monitoring.

What participants receive

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

  • ANX-042Drug

    The first 20 subjects will receive a dose 0.003 µg/kg/min by infusion, the next 20 subjects will receive a dose of 0.006 µg/kg/min, then the next 20 subjects will receive 0.01 µg/kg/min.

  • PlaceboDrug

    The pharmacy created a placebo for this study is sterile Dextrose (5%) solution (D5W) 0.9% Sodium Chloride for intravenous administration to match study drug.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing ANX-042 in people with Heart Failure and Cardiorenal Disease, run by Mayo Clinic at 1 site 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 20 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 15 Nov 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site 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. 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 Glomerular Filtration Rate (time frame: baseline to 3 weeks). 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 15 Nov 2024.
