Single Dose Escalation Study in Patients With Chronic Heart Failure

Proof of Concept Study to Investigate Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics and the Impact on Pulmonary and Systemic Hemodynamics of a Single Oral Dose of BAY60-4552 in Patients With Biventricular Chronic Heart Failure and Pulmonary Hypertension in a Non-randomized, Non-blinded, Dose Escalation Design.

Brief summary

This study is to demonstrate the safety and tolerability of a single oral dose of BAY60-4552 in a single dose escalation design. Furthermore, this study examines the changes in hemodynamics after application of the test substance.42 hospitalized stable patients with chronic heart failure will be included. Several measurements will be performed to test how good the drug works and wether there are any unwanted reactions to the drug (e.g. blood tests, ECG, heart rate, blood pressure, adverse events). After a observation period the patient will be discharged from the hospital.
