Brief summary

Secondary Data Collection Study; Safety And Effectiveness Of Selara Under Japanese Medical Practice

Detailed description

This study will be conducted under the central registration system until the number of subjects who meet the conditions for registration reaches the target number of subjects. The patients will be observed up until Week 52.

Interventions

DRUGEplerenone

In adults, usually, administer the initial dose of 25 mg once daily according to the patient's serum potassium level and conditions, increase dosage up to 50 mg once daily after 4 week; patients with moderate renal impairment should start with 25 mg every other day and the maximum dosage should be 25 mg once daily. Also, dose should be reduced or interrupted according to serum potassium level and patient's conditions.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Percentage of Participants With Adverse Drug Reactions in Chronic Heart Failure Participants With Moderate Renal Impairment52 weeks from the start dateAn adverse drug reaction (ADR) was any untoward medical occurrence attributed to Selara in a chronic heart failure participant with moderate renal impairment (≥30 mL/min and \<50 mL/min in eCLCr) who received Selara. A serious ADR was an ADR resulting in any of the following outcomes or deemed significant for any other reason: death; life-threatening experience (immediate risk of dying); initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; persistent or significant disability/incapacity; congenital anomaly. Relatedness to Selara was assessed by the physician.

The Number of Deaths (Overall Deaths)52 weeks from the start dateOverall deaths were described with the number of deaths from any cause at the time of 52 weeks after the start of administration, regardless of the treatment status (completed or discontinued).
The Number of Deaths (Cardiovascular Deaths)52 weeks from the start dateCardiovascular deaths were described with the number of deaths defined as any death due to cardiac failure, myocardial infarction, arrhythmia (atrial fibrillation, atrial flutter, arrhythmia supraventricular, or ventricular arrhythmia), stroke or cerebrovascular attack, and other causes related to cardiovascular system at the time of 52 weeks after the start of administration, regardless of the treatment status (completed or discontinued).
The Overall Mortality Rate52 weeks from the start dateThe overall mortality rate was calculated by the incidence of all-cause death per observation time based on the person-year method (the number of deaths in 100 person-year).
The Cardiovascular-related Mortality Rate52 weeks from the start dateThe cardiovascular-related mortality rate was calculated by the incidence of cardiovascular-related death per observation time based on the person-year method (the number of deaths in 100 person-year).

Percentage of Participants With Adverse Drug Reactions in Chronic Heart Failure Participants With Moderate Renal Impairment

An adverse drug reaction (ADR) was any untoward medical occurrence attributed to Selara in a chronic heart failure participant with moderate renal impairment (≥30 mL/min and \<50 mL/min in eCLCr) who received Selara. A serious ADR was an ADR resulting in any of the following outcomes or deemed significant for any other reason: death; life-threatening experience (immediate risk of dying); initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; persistent or significant disability/incapacity; congenital anomaly. Relatedness to Selara was assessed by the physician.

Time frame: 52 weeks from the start date

Population: The safety analysis set comprised of chronic heart failure participants who satisfied the inclusion criteria and had received Selara at least once. Of the participants included in the safety analysis set (n=1139), 316 participants had moderate renal impairment (≥30 mL/min and \<50 mL/min in eCLCr).

The Cardiovascular-related Mortality Rate

The cardiovascular-related mortality rate was calculated by the incidence of cardiovascular-related death per observation time based on the person-year method (the number of deaths in 100 person-year). Cardiovascular deaths were defined as any death due to cardiac failure, myocardial infarction, arrhythmia (atrial fibrillation, atrial flutter, arrhythmia supraventricular, or ventricular arrhythmia), stroke or cerebrovascular attack, and other causes related to cardiovascular system at the time of 52 weeks after the start of administration, regardless of the treatment status (completed or discontinued).

Time frame: 52 weeks from the start date

Population: The efficacy analysis set comprised of chronic heart failure participants in the safety analysis set who had effectiveness evaluation (overall evaluation by the physician based upon change in clinical symptoms and laboratory findings) at least once.
