| NCT00303498 | A Study of the Effectiveness of Sitaxsentan Sodium in Patients With Diastolic Heart Failure | PHASE2 | COMPLETED | 200 | — | — | Mar 27, 2006 | May 1, 2008 | Jan 4, 2023 | 52 | United States, Canada |
Treadmill exercise test is used to assess the functional capacity of participants with cardiac disease. Treadmill exercise test was conducted using the 2 minute incremental Naughton protocol. The Naughton protocol starts with a 2 minute warm-up. The speed of treadmill is set to 1 mile per hour (mph) and the incline is set to 0. After the warm-up, the speed is set at 2 mph for the remainder of the test. The test consists of six, 2 minute intervals. The grade starts at 0 for the first interval, and increases by 3.5 percent every 2 minutes. The change in total exercise time (in seconds) during the treadmill test was reported.

| Sitexsentin sodium | 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 |
