Trial Outcomes & Findings for Effects Of Sitaxsentan On Proteinuria, 24-Hour Blood Pressure, And Arterial Stiffness In Chronic Kidney Disease Subjects (NCT NCT00810732)

NCT ID: NCT00810732

Last Updated: 2023-07-06

Results Overview

Mean urine total protein assessment included 24-hour urine collections to assess total protein excretion per 24 hours. Baseline was derived from an average of Week 0 (pre-dose) 24-hour urine collections prior to each treatment period. Week 6 was derived from an average of Week 6 24-hour urine collections for each treatment period.

Timeframe: Baseline, Week 6

Population: FAS included all participants who received at least one dose of study drug and had received at least 1 on-treatment assessment for at least 1 endpoint.

Mean urine total protein assessment included 24-hour urine collections to assess total protein excretion per 24 hours. Baseline was derived from an average of Week 0 (pre-dose) 24-hour urine collections prior to each treatment period.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline, Week 3 and 6

Population: FAS included all participants who received at least one dose of study drug and had received at least 1 on-treatment assessment for at least 1 endpoint.

The 24-hour ambulatory BP monitoring was performed by using a BP cuff which was attached to the participant's arm, using the same arm throughout the study, with a small monitor that comfortably sits in the pocket of participant. Mean values over 24-hour measurements at each measurement period were calculated. The change in total 24-hour ambulatory monitoring of systemic arterial BP, SBP and DBP at Week 3 and 6 relative to baseline were reported. Baseline was as an average of the pre-dose measurement for the measure collected at Week 0 of each treatment period. Week 3 and Week 6 was an average of measurement for the measure collected at Week 3 and 6 of each treatment period.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline, Week 3 and 6

Population: FAS included all participants who received at least one dose of study drug and had received at least 1 on-treatment assessment for at least 1 endpoint.

Carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (PWV), a measure of arterial stiffness, is determined from the time taken for the arterial pulse to propagate from the carotid to the femoral artery. Baseline was defined as the pre-dose measurement for the measure collected at Week 0 of each treatment period. Week 3 and Week 6 was an average of measurement for the measure collected at Week 3 and 6 of each treatment period.
