About this study

Official title: Natriruetic Effect of Amiloride in Relation to the Alpha Adducin Gene (ADD-AMI) RS4961 Variant

The study is a non-pharmacological interventional, single-center, national, non-randomised, comparative and open label.

Read the detailed description

The study is carried out to evaluate primarily the difference in the activity of the renal transporter ENaC (through dosage of sodium) through its inhibition with a single dose of Amiloride in hypertensive patients characterized by the polymorphism of alpha Adducin rs496. It's also aimed to see the difference in potassium and the change in systolic and diastolic blood pressure after amiloride administration

What participants receive

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

  • AmilorideDrug

    administration of a single dose of 5 or 10 mg of Amiloride (based on body weight) After oral intake of the drug, the increase in sodium in the urine ends within 8 hours

Study groups in NCT06416735
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
patients carrying the wild-type (GG) genotype of ADD1 rs4961ExperimentalThe protocol involves a test of oral administration of a single dose of Amiloride (5 or 10 mg based on body weight) to 20 patients carrying the wild-type (GG) genotype of ADD1 rs4961
Receives: Drug: Amiloride
patients carriers of variant T (GT or TT)ExperimentalThe test involves the administration of a single dose of 5 or 10 mg of Amiloride to 20 hypertensive carriers of the T variant (GT or TT)
Receives: Drug: Amiloride

What is being measured

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

  1. Evaluate urinary sodium

    Evaluation of sodium levels after oral administration of Amiloride

    Measured: 3 hrs and 6 hrs

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Evaluate potassium levels

    Evaluation of potassium plasma levels after oral administration of Amiloride

    Measured: 3 hrs and 6 hrs

  2. Evaluation of systolic blood pressure

    Evaluation of systolic blood pressure after oral administration of Amiloride

    Measured: 3 hrs and 6 hrs

  3. Evaluation of diastolic blood pressure

    Evaluation of diastolic blood pressure after oral administration of Amiloride

    Measured: 3 hrs and 6 hrs

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Amiloride in people with Hypertension Essential and Salt Excess, run by Ospedale San Raffaele at 1 site in Italy.

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 6 inclusion and 12 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 16 May 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 Italy. 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 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?

Evaluate urinary sodium (time frame: 3 hrs and 6 hrs). 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 16 May 2024.
