Brief Summary

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

The purpose of the study was to evaluate the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of an intravenous infusion of serelaxin on top of standard of care therapy, in pediatric patients with acute heart failure (AHF)

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The study was terminated early and the pediatric development of serelaxin in the treatment of acute heart failure (AHF) discontinued, following the results of the phase III study RELAX-AHF-2 (CRLX030A2301/NCT01870778) study in adult patients with AHF. Whilst no new safety concerns associated with serelaxin were observed, the study in adults did not meet either of its primary endpoints
