Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The aim of this study was to determine whether long-term (≥ 6 months at the target dose) blockade of ETA receptors using sitaxsentan showed functional benefit in subjects with chronic Heart Failure and an Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction ≥50%.

Sitaxsentan sodium

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Sitexsentin sodium

Intervention Type DRUG

sitaxsentan 100 mg (target dose) 0rally once daily. A 10-week Run-In Phase was conducted where dosing commenced at 25 mg daily for 2 weeks, and then was stepped up to 50 mg daily for 2 weeks, to 75 mg daily for 2 weeks and then to 100 mg daily for 2 weeks, with an additional 2-week stabilization period (10 weeks total) to a target study dose of 100 mg daily. During the Run-In Phase, if a subject was not able to tolerate upward dose titration to the target dose of 100 mg, the investigator may have elected to continue at the current dosage or reduce the dosage of sitaxsentan or placebo to the subject's immediate prior dose. During the Maintenance Phase, subjects received the highest titrated dose reached of study drug and continued it through the last day of Week M24 of the Maintenance Phase (14 weeks)- total study drug treatment duration= 6 months
