Filter by:To determine the long-term safety and tolerability of SR121463B in patients with syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic secretion (SIADH). To assess the long-term efficacy of SR121463B in maintaining normal levels of serum sodium in patients with SIADH. Long term safety is evaluated further in an open label extension study with flexible doses of satavaptan.
This study's purpose is to determine whether tolvaptan can safely and effectively return the body's balance of sodium and water toward normal, and to characterize and quantify the potential clinical benefits of this treatment.
Hydrochlorothiazide and spironolactone are diuretics that are commonly in preterm infants with bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD). Hyponatremia (low blood salt) is a common side effect. It is uncertain whether the best way to treat the hyponatremia is by oral salt supplementation or restricting fluid intake. Our hypothesis is that fluid restricted infants will be better able to preserve the beneficial effects of diuretics on the lungs. The study will include very low birth weight infants (VLBW) 400-1500g from Hermann Memorial Children's Hospital NICU or LBJ General Hospital NICU with BPD. They will be enrolled and randomly assigned to either the salt supplementation group or the fluid restriction group once they become hyponatremic (defined as serum Na <130). The study intervention will take place for four weeks. The primary outcome will be assessed by comparing the patient's initial oxygen and breathing machine requirements with those at the end of the four-week study period.
This study’s purpose is to determine whether tolvaptan can safely and effectively return the body’s balance of sodium and water toward normal, and to characterize and quantify the potential clinical benefits of this treatment.
The study is designed to assess the efficacy of an investigational drug called SR121463B (vasopressin receptor antagonist) in the treatment of low levels of sodium in the blood associated with the Syndrome of Inappropriate Antidiuretic Hormone Secretion (SIADH). This double blind period study is followed by 2 open label extension studies with flexible doses of satavaptan.
