9 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
Prescribing Sodium zirconium cyclosilicate (SZC) with enhanced nutritional advice to participants with hyperkalaemia on haemodialysis will reduce serum K+ (S-K+ ) and enable the consumption of more fruit and vegetables and more satisfying diet. The study aims to show that participants using SZC achieve S-K+ reduction as well as participants on SoC (other than K+ binders), without the need for restricting K+ in the diet.
This non-interventional, Phase IV, exploratory, cross-over, randomised, single-blind, active comparator-controlled study has been designed to measure the palatability and preference of Lokelma® versus Veltassa® versus S/CPS in patients with dialysis and non-dialysis chronic kidney disease (CKD) and hyperkalaemia (HK). The sponsor hypothesizes that palatability, in terms of taste, texture, smell, and mouthfeel, will score higher (better) for Lokelma when compared with Veltassa and S/CPS.
Sodium zirconium cyclosilicate has been shown to be effective and safe in adults for the treatment of hyperkalaemia, and therefore it is expected to be beneficial in children. This study will evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of sodium zirconium cyclosilicate for the treatment of hyperkalaemia in children \<18 years of age. Approximately 140 participants will enter CP at approximately 46 sites in locations including but not limited to Europe and North America for this study. Treatment will include 3 phases: the CP, MP, and LTMP. Enrolment will start in 2 cohorts, ages 6 to \< 12 years and 12 to \< 18 years. After review of accumulated data, the independent Data Monitoring Committee (iDMC) will recommend whether to open enrolment in the ages 2 to \< 6 years cohort and later in the ages 0 to \< 2 years cohort. All eligible participants with hyperkalaemia will enter an open-label Correction Phase (CP) receiving a fixed dose of SZC three times daily (TID) for up to 3 days until normokalaemia is achieved. Within each age cohorts 2 to \< 18 years, initial participants will be allocated to the dose level (DL) based on body weight equivalent to an adult 5 g TID. After recommendation of higher DLs by the iDMC, subsequent participants may be allocated in the CP to on body weight equivalent to an adult 10 g TID and then potentially on body weight equivalent to an adult 15 g TID. All participants in the ages 0 to \< 2 years cohort will be assigned to the same DL which will be decided based on data from older age cohorts. Participants who successfully achieve normokalaemia in the CP will enter a 28-day open-label Maintenance Phase (MP), which will be initiated with once daily administration of the dose received TID in the CP. During MP, the Investigator is able to titrate the dose up or down in the range 2.5 g to 15 g body weight equivalent to maintain normokalaemia. For participants who, at the end of MP, are normokalaemic or hyperkalaemic without being on maximum dose, the MP is followed by the option to continue the study in a long term maintenance phase (LTMP) where the same titration regimen is used as in MP
A study to evaluate the pharmacodynamic effects, safety, and tolerability of patiromer in children under 12 years of age with hyperkalaemia
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of Sodium Zirconium Cyclosilicate (SZC), as adjunct to ACEi/ARB therapy (lisinopril or valsartan), on slowing CKD progression (assessed as the reduction in participant's glomerular filtration rate \[eGFR\] decline over time) in participants with hyperkalaemia or at high risk of hyperkalaemia.
The CARE-HK in HF is a registry study based on the hypothesis that adherence to guidelines is associated with improved real-world outcomes for heart failure (HF) patients. For the purpose of this study, adherence to guidelines is defined as adherence to RAASi treatment recommendations, according to the AHA/ACC and ESC guidelines. Objectives relating to patiromer effectiveness will only be evaluated if a sufficient number of patients are available. The study aims to evaluate in patients at high risk of hyperkalaemia; patients treated with ACEi/ARB/ARNi, and either treated with or candidates for treatment with MRA.
The main objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of SZC as compared to placebo in maintaining normal sK+ in patients with hyperkalemia and metabolic acidosis associated with CKD
The main objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of SZC as compared with placebo in keeping potassium levels within the normal range (3.5-5.0 mEq/L) while on spironolactone ≥25 mg daily without assistance of rescue therapy for hyperkalaemia (HK).
This is an international, multicentre, parallel-group, randomised, double-blind, placebo controlled, phase II study to evaluate the benefits and risks of using sodium zirconium cyclosilicate (ZS) to initiate and intensify renin angiotensin aldosterone system inhibitor (RAASi) therapy in heart failure patients.
