Active clinical trials for "Hyponatremia"

The objective of this study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of tolvaptan based on the change in serum sodium concentration following administration of tolvaptan oral tablets at 7.5 to 60 mg/day for up to 30 days in patients with hyponatremia in the SIADH.

Aim of this prospective clinical study was to compare two different surgical techniques and used solutions on serum electrolytes, bleeding and Transurethral Resection of Prostate (TURP) syndrome undergoing TURP. Fifty-three patients scheduled for elective TURP were enrolled in this prospective clinical study. Patients were included one of two groups (Group Monopolar and Group Bipolar).

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of oral lixivaptan capsules in subjects with Euvolemic Hyponatremia.

The primary objective of this study is to compare the blood sodium level after 12 hours following the initiation of therapy with either 0.3% NaCl/dextrose 5% or 0.45% NaCl/dextrose 5%, in postsurgical hospitalized children requiring maintenance IV fluid administration.

This study will investigate the application of a vasopressin antagonist in the treatment of hyponatremia most likely caused by inappropriate AVP secretion. The population studied will include patients with euvolemic or hypervolemic hyponatremia.

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.

Syndrome of inappropriate antidiuresis (SIADH) is characterized by an imbalance of antidiuretic vasopressin (AVP) secretion. The impaired AVP regulation leads to water retention and secondary natriuresis and is a common cause for hyponatremia. Especially chronic (>72h) SIADH is difficult to treat as standard therapeutic options (water restriction, urea, salt tablets) often do not succeed in correction of hyponatremia, making additional therapy necessary. Empagliflozin is a sodium glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2)-inhibitor, which is a well-tolerated treatment option for type 2 diabetes mellitus. The inhibition of SGLT2 in the proximal tubule leads to renal excretion of glucose with subsequent osmotic diuresis. This mechanism could result in a therapeutic effect in patients with chronic SIADH, as it resembles the aquaretic effect of urea. The aim of this study is to evaluate whether empagliflozin has an effect on the serum sodium levels of patients with chronic SIADH.

This is a randomized, double-blind, multicenter, placebo-controlled (standard therapy + placebo), phase 2 efficacy and safety study of the Tolvaptan tablets in treatment of patients with non-hypovolemic non-acute hyponatremia arising from a variety of etiologies. 240 (120 in each group) patients are to be enrolled randomly into Tolvaptan group or placebo group. Subjects in Tolvaptan group will receive standard therapy + Tolvaptan (15-60mg/day), while those in control group receiving standard therapy + placebo. The starting dose of tolvaptan is 15mg and it could be titrated up to 30mg and then,if necessary, to the maximum of 60mg according to a certain titration scheme based on patients' response of serum sodium level. The study includes a 2-day screening period from day -2 to day -1, 7-day inpatient study treatment (day 1 to day 7 ). After study treatment, subjects will be Followed-up on safety events on day 14 - 16. The Primary Efficacy Variable is the change of serum sodium from baseline. For patients with Congestive Heart Failure (CHF) or hepatic cirrhosis, change of body weight, fluid balance and symptoms improvement of CHF and hepatic edema will be assessed as secondary efficacy variables.

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of lixivaptan in the treatment of hyponatremia in patients with congestive heart failure.
