Trial Outcomes & Findings for Avoiding Treatment in the Hospital With Furoscix for the Management of Congestion in Heart Failure - A Pilot Study (NCT NCT04593823)

NCT ID: NCT04593823

Last Updated: 2023-08-01

Results Overview

Win Ratio calculated as number of pairs of Furoscix On-Body Infusor subject "wins" divided by number of pairs of Furoscix On-Body Infusor subject "losses" when compared to Continued Medical Therapy subjects. Components of Endpoint composite outcome: CV death, HF hospitalization, Urgent ED/Clinic visit at 30 days and percent change in NT-proBNP from baseline at Day 7. See Statistical Analysis Plan for detailed explanation of this statistical method.

Furoscix Infusor
Furoscix (furosemide injection, 8 mg/mL) administered subcutaneously over 5 hours via the Furoscix Infusor. The Infusor is applied to the abdomen via a medical grade adhesive and delivers a subcutaneous infusion of Furoscix through a pre-programmed, biphasic delivery profile with 30 mg (3.75 mL) administered over the first hour, followed by 12.5 mg (1.56 mL) per hour for the subsequent 4 hours (Total dose is 80 mg (10 mL) over 5 hours). Furoscix Infusor: Furoscix Infusor, a drug-device combination product for subcutaneous delivery of Furoscix, buffered furosemide injection, 8 mg/mL (total dose = 80 mg dose) administered subcutaneously for 5 hours.

The patient global assessment VAS is a patient-reported assessment of how good or bad a patient feels their health is on a given day. It is reported on a visual scale of 0 to 100, with 0 being the worst health they can imagine and 100 being the best health they can imagine.

The composite congestion score (ccs) is calculated by summing the individual scores for orthopnea, pedal edema and jugular venous distension. The investigator-assessed the signs and symptoms of congestion (orthopnea, pedal edema, and jugular venous distension) on a 4-point grading scale ranging from 0 to 3. Higher score indicates greater severity of symptoms ranging from 0 to 9.

The 5-Point Current Dyspnea Status Questionnaire is a single-item, self-administered instrument that quantifies current symptoms of dyspnea. The scale includes the absence of dyspnea (a score of 1), mild shortness of breath (a score of 2), moderate shortness of breath (a score of 3), severe shortness of breath (a score of 4) and the worst possible shortness of breath (a score of 5)

The KCCQ-12 questionnaire is a patient-reported assessment to capture symptom frequency, physical and social limitations, and quality-of-life impairment as a result of HF, as well as an overall summary score. In the KCCQ-12, responses are given for each individual item is scored on a scale of 0-100 with higher scores indicating better health.

The Infusor is applied to the abdomen via a medical grade adhesive and delivers a subcutaneous infusion of Furoscix through a pre-programmed, biphasic delivery profile with 30 mg (3.75 mL) administered over the first hour, followed by 12.5 mg (1.56 mL) per hour for the subsequent 4 hours (Total dose is 80 mg (10 mL) over 5 hours). Furoscix Infusor: Furoscix Infusor, a drug-device combination product for subcutaneous delivery of Furoscix, buffered furosemide injection, 8 mg/mL (total dose = 80 mg dose) administered subcutaneously for 5 hours.
