Congestive Heart Failure
Conditions
Brief summary
To confirm the tolerability of intravenous administration of OPC-61815 at 8 or 16 mg once daily for a maximum of 5 days to CHF patients with volume overload despite having received diuretics (injection) other than vasopressin antagonists and who have difficulty with or are incapable of oral intake.
Interventions
Intravenous administration of OPC-61815 at 8 mg or 16 mg once daily for a maximum of 5 days. Starting with 8mg, increase the dose to 16mg on Day 2 or Day 3, according to the dose escalation criteria.

Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Percentage of Subjects With Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) and Serious TEAEs | From the start of IMP administration (Day 1) up to 15 days | An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical trial subject administered a medicinal product and which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. A serious AE (SAE) is an AE that leads to death, is life-threatening, results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, requires in-patient or prolonged hospitalization, results in a congenital anomaly/birth defect, or any other important medical event which is medically significant. A TEAE is an AE that occurs only after a subject has received IMP. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Change From Baseline in Body Weight | Baseline, Day after final IMP administration | Change in body weight from baseline (before IMP administration on Day 1) at time of final IMP administration (day after final IMP administration). A negative change from baseline indicates improvement. |
| Improvement Rate for Lower Limb Edema | Baseline, Day after final IMP administration | The improvement rate was defined as the percentage of subjects in whom a symptom was present at baseline and then markedly improved or improved after IMP administration. Improvement category is a 4-point scale below: * Markedly improved * Improved * Unchanged * Deteriorated |
| Improvement Rate for Pulmonary Congestion | Baseline, Day after final IMP administration | The improvement rate was defined as the percentage of subjects in whom a symptom was present at baseline and then markedly improved or improved after IMP administration.

Participant flow
Pre-assignment details
A total of 45 subjects were administered investigational medicinal product (IMP): 38 subjects with dose maintained at 8 mg, and 7 subjects with dose increased to 16 mg. None of the subjects reduced the dose after the dose was increased to 16 mg. All 45 subjects received at least one dose of IMP and thus were included in the safety analysis set. Overall, 41 subjects completed the trial (34 of those subjects completed the trial early), and 4 subjects were discontinued from the trial.

Outcome results
Percentage of Subjects With Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) and Serious TEAEs
An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical trial subject administered a medicinal product and which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. A serious AE (SAE) is an AE that leads to death, is life-threatening, results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, requires in-patient or prolonged hospitalization, results in a congenital anomaly/birth defect, or any other important medical event which is medically significant. A TEAE is an AE that occurs only after a subject has received IMP.
Time frame: From the start of IMP administration (Day 1) up to 15 days
Population: Safety Analysis Set: subjects who received at least one dose of IMP
| Arm | Measure | Value (NUMBER) |
|---|---|---|
| OPC-61815 Injection | Percentage of Subjects With Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) and Serious TEAEs | 77.8 percentage of participants |
Change From Baseline in Body Weight
Change in body weight from baseline (before IMP administration on Day 1) at time of final IMP administration (day after final IMP administration). A negative change from baseline indicates improvement.
Time frame: Baseline, Day after final IMP administration
Population: Subjects with both baseline and evaluation of the given parameter at the specific visit.

Improvement Rate for Lower Limb Edema
The improvement rate was defined as the percentage of subjects in whom a symptom was present at baseline and then markedly improved or improved after IMP administration. Improvement category is a 4-point scale below: * Markedly improved * Improved * Unchanged * Deteriorated
Time frame: Baseline, Day after final IMP administration
Population: Efficacy Analysis Set: subjects who received at least one dose of IMP and had at least one postbaseline dose efficacy measurement.~Overall Number of Participants Analyzed = number of subjects with baseline symptoms.

Improvement Rate for Pulmonary Congestion
The improvement rate was defined as the percentage of subjects in whom a symptom was present at baseline and then markedly improved or improved after IMP administration. Improvement category is a 4-point scale below: * Markedly improved * Improved * Unchanged * Deteriorated
