A Study of RO4998452 in Type 2 Diabetes Patients With Varying Degrees of Renal Impairment
Diabetes Mellitus Type 2This 4 arm study will investigate the pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics of RO4998452 in type 2 diabetes patients with varying degrees of renal impairment. Eligible patients will be divided into 4 groups, with normal renal function, or mild, moderate or severe renal impairment. All patients will receive a single oral dose of RO4998452 in the fasted state.The anticipated time on study treatment is <3 months (single dose study)and the target sample size is <100 individuals.
Safety and Efficacy of Low Dose Hypertonic Saline Solution and High Dose Furosemide for Congestive...
Congestive Heart FailureRenal InsufficiencyThe purpose of this study is to compare high dose furosemide in combination with low volume hypertonic saline solution (2.4%) with intermittent pulse dose furosemide in patients with pre treatment kidney function impairment. The hypothesis is that it will provide effective diuretic response and have a beneficial effect on preservation of renal function as compared to pulse furosemide in patients with pre-treatment renal impairment (GFR < 60 mL/min).
