Brief summary

To investigate the plasma drug level, efficacy, and safety of 7-day repeated oral administration of OPC-41061 at 15 mg/day (treatment period 1) and subsequent 7-day repeated administration of OPC-41061 at 15 mg/day or 30 mg/day if diuretic effect is insufficient (treatment period 2) in congestive heart failure (CHF) patients with extracellular volume expansion despite conventional diuretic therapy.

Inclusion criteria

1. Subjects with cardiac edema receiving diuretic treatment since 7 days prior to the commencement of study drug administration. 2. Subjects receiving one of the following diuretic treatments since 3 days prior to the commencement of study drug administration without changing the dose or dosing regimen (including subjects scheduled to start treatment during the run-in observation period). * 1\. A loop diuretic at a daily dosage equivalent to 40 mg or more of furosemide * 2\. Concomitant administration of a loop diuretic and a thiazide diuretic (at any doses) * 3\. Concomitant administration of a loop diuretic and an anti-aldosterone drug (at any doses) 3. CHF patients with lower limb edema, jugular venous distention, or pulmonary congestion due to extracellular volume expansion. 4. Male or female subjects between the ages of 20 and 85, inclusive (at time of informed consent) 5. Subjects able to stay at the study site from the day before the start of the run-in observation period until completion of post-treatment observation 2 (7 to 10 days after final study drug administration) 6. Subjects capable of giving informed consent to participate in the study of their own free will
