Heart Failure Clinical Trial
— REDICAEOfficial title:
Safety and Tolerability of Diuretics Withdrawal in Heart Failure With Reduced Ejection Fraction. REDICAE Trial.
REDICAE trial was designed to evaluate the safety and tolerability of diuretics withdrawal in stable, euvolemic chronic outpatients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction. It is a single-center, randomized, open-label, phase II clinical trial.

Type | Measure | Description | Time frame | Safety issue |
---|---|---|---|---|
Primary | Change From Baseline in Dyspnea assessed by a visual analogue scale (VAS) | VAS scores are scaled from 0 to 100 millimeters (mm). Higher scores mean a worse outcome. | baseline - 30 days - 90 days - 180 days | |
Secondary | Acute decompensated heart failure events | Number of Hospital admissions, emergency department visits or unscheduled medical appointments requiring intravenous diuretic treatment, and increase in diuretic dose or reintroduction of an oral diuretic. | 180 days | |
Secondary | Variation of plasmatic levels of natriuretic peptides | Levels of the N-terminal pro b-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) | baseline - 30 days - 90 days - 180 days | |
Secondary | Tissue fluid overload | Variation of plasmatic levels of antigen carbohydrate 125 (CA-125) | baseline - 30 days - 90 days - 180 days | |
Secondary | Body Composition Monitor (BCM) of Fresenius Medical Care | Variation of fluid overload assessed by bioelectrical impedance analysis | baseline - 30 days - 90 days - 180 days | |
Secondary | Inferior vena cava (IVC) diameter | IVC diameter measured in its intra-hepatic portion at 2 cm of the junction with the hepatic veins using a longitudinal view from a sub-xiphoid position. IVC is dilated when its diameter is more than 20 mm. | baseline - 30 days - 90 days - 180 days | |
Secondary | Hepatic vein Doppler | Pulsed wave Doppler shows a systolic (S) and diastolic (D) components. Normal pattern (S > D), mildly abnormal pattern (S < D) and severely abnormal pattern (S reverses) | baseline - 30 days - 90 days - 180 days | |
Secondary | Portal vein Doppler | Pulsed wave Doppler shows a continuous nonpulsatile flow. Using the pulsatility fraction (PF=100*[(Vmax - Vmin)/Vmax)]) are three patterns: normal PF < 30%, mildly abnormal PF 30-50% and severely abnormal PF >50%. | baseline - 30 days - 90 days - 180 days | |
Secondary | Intra-renal venous Doppler | Pulsed wave Doppler shows a normal pattern when flow is continuous. Mildly abnormal pattern shows a biphasic flow (S and D). Severely abnormal pattern shows a monophasic flow (D) | baseline - 30 days - 90 days - 180 days | |
Secondary | Ultrasound congestion parameters by Venous Excess Ultrasound (VExUS) protocol | IVC diameter, hepatic vein Doppler, portal vein Doppler and intra-renal venous Doppler patterns are combined to report VExUS grades:
Grade 0 (no congestion): IVC < 20 mm Grade 1 (mild congestion): IVC = 20 mm and any combination of normal or mildly abnormal pattern Grade 2 (moderate congestion): IVC = 20 mm + = 1 severely abnormal pattern Grado 4 (severe congestion): IVC = 20 mm + = 2 severely abnormal pattern |
baseline - 30 days - 90 days - 180 days | |
Secondary | Congestion assessed by lung ultrasound | Pleural effusion or pathological B lines. More than two B lines are considered as pathological. | baseline - 30 days - 90 days - 180 days | |
Secondary | Quality of life status | Change From Baseline in the Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire 12 (KCCQ-12) score. KCCQ-12 scores are scaled from 0 to 100. Higher scores mean a better outcome. | baseline - 30 days - 90 days - 180 days | |
Secondary | 6 minute walk test | Change From Baseline in meters walked, as assessed by the 6 minute walk test | baseline - 30 days - 90 days - 180 days |
