Conditions

Congestive Heart Failure

Brief summary

The dose for intravenous administration of OPC-61815 achieving tolvaptan exposure equivalent to that for oral administration of tolvaptan 15-mg tablet will be investigated by administering OPC-61815 injection 2 to 16mg or tolvaptan 15-mg oral tablet to subjects with congestive heart failure.

Interventions

DRUGOPC-61815 injection 2mg

Once daily for 5 days placebo tablet will be orally administered, followed immediately by intravenous administration of OPC-61815 at 2 mg.

DRUGOPC-61815 injection 4mg

Once daily for 5 days placebo tablet will be orally administered, followed immediately by intravenous administration of OPC-61815 at 4 mg.

DRUGOPC-61815 injection 8mg

Once daily for 5 days placebo tablet will be orally administered, followed immediately by intravenous administration of OPC-61815 at 8 mg.

DRUGOPC-61815 injection 16mg

Once daily for 5 days placebo tablet will be orally administered, followed immediately by intravenous administration of OPC-61815 at 16 mg.

DRUGTolvaptan tablet 15mg

Once daily for 5 days tolvaptan 15-mg tablet will be orally administered, followed immediately by 1-hour intravenous administration of placebo.

Pre-assignment details

A total of 74 subjects were screened for this trial, 13 were screen failures, and 61 were randomly assigned to one of the treatment groups. One subject assigned to the OPC-61815 16-mg group was withdrawn due to dehydration before initiation of the trial drug administration; therefore, 60 subjects received at least 1 dosing of the trial drug.
