Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Healthcare Utilization Costs
Day 0 - Day 30

The difference in the overall and heart failure related healthcare costs between subjects treated with the Furoscix Infusor through 30 days post discharge from the emergency department compared to matched controls treated in the hospital for ≤ 72 hours through 30 days post discharge.

Win Ratio of Composite Endpoint
Day 7, Day 30

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.

Number of Cardiovascular Deaths
Baseline, 30 Days

Total number of CV deaths between two groups

Number of Heart Failure Hospitalizations
30 Days

Heart Failure hospitalizations compared between two groups

Number of Urgent ED/Clinic Visits for Worsening Heart Failure
30 Days

Urgent ED/Clinic visits for worsening heart failure compared between two groups. Statistical analysis was not performed due to no ED/Clinic visits

Treatment Arms

ArmTypeDescription
Furoscix Infusor Prospective TreatmentEXPERIMENTALFuroscix (furosemide injection, 8 mg/mL) administered subcutaneously over 5 hours via the Furoscix Infusor outside the hospital.
Propensity-Matched Historical ControlNO_INTERVENTIONThe control arm will be populated with claims data for patients with HF and fluid overload who presented to the emergency department and were admitted to the hospital for ≤ 72 hours for the treatment of HF with intravenous diuretics. Patients admitted for diuresis-only will be identified by using diagnostic codes for admittance from a claims database.
Furoscix InfusorEXPERIMENTALFuroscix (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).
Continued Medical TherapyNO_INTERVENTIONThe subjects enrolled in this arm will receive treatment as usual

Frequently asked questions about Furoscix Infusor

What is Furoscix Infusor used for?

Furoscix Infusor is used for the management of congestion in heart failure. It is a small molecule being developed by MannKind Corporation for patients with heart failure, with the goal of reducing hospital admissions and treating fluid overload outside of a hospital setting.

What does Furoscix Infusor target?

Furoscix Infusor is a small molecule formulation of furosemide, a loop diuretic that targets the sodium-potassium-chloride cotransporter in the thick ascending limb of the loop of Henle in the kidney. By inhibiting this transporter, it increases urine output and reduces fluid retention in heart failure patients.

Who makes Furoscix Infusor?

MannKind Corporation (NASDAQ: MNKD) is developing Furoscix Infusor. The company is conducting clinical trials to evaluate the drug for the treatment of heart failure, specifically focusing on managing congestion and decreasing hospital admissions.

What phase is Furoscix Infusor in?

Furoscix Infusor is in Phase 3 clinical development for heart failure. One Phase 3 trial has been completed, along with a Phase 2 pilot study. The drug is investigational and has not been approved by the FDA.

What clinical trials is Furoscix Infusor in?

Furoscix Infusor has completed two clinical trials in the United States. The Phase 3 trial NCT03458325, titled "Furoscix Real-World Evaluation for Decreasing Hospital Admissions in Heart Failure," enrolled 27 patients. The Phase 2 trial NCT04593823, titled "Avoiding Treatment in the Hospital With Furoscix for the Management of Congestion in Heart Failure - A Pilot Study," enrolled 63 patients.

Is Furoscix Infusor the same as furosemide?

Furoscix Infusor is a formulation of furosemide, a well-known loop diuretic. It is designed for subcutaneous administration to treat congestion in heart failure, potentially allowing patients to avoid hospitalization. The drug is being developed by MannKind Corporation.
