A Research Study to Show Aprocitentan is Efficacious and Safe to Treat Patients With Uncontrolled Blood Pressure and Chronic Kidney Disease. (INSPIRE-CKD)

November 22, 2022 updated by: Idorsia Pharmaceuticals Ltd.

Multi-center, Blinded, Randomized Study With Aprocitentan in Subjects With Uncontrolled Blood Pressure and Chronic Kidney Disease Stage 3 or 4.

The purpose of this research study is to show the blood pressure lowering effect of aprocitentan, a new drug, when added to the background antihypertensive therapy in patients with uncontrolled blood pressure and chronic kidney disease (CKD) stage 3 or 4. Participation in the research study will last up to 21 weeks (about 5 months).

Study Overview

Status

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Study Type

Study Type

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.
Interventional

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

14 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Women of childbearing potential are eligible only if the following applies:

    • Negative pregnancy test at the screening visit and at baseline (i.e., end of run-in period).
    • Agree to undertake pregnancy tests during the study and up to 30 days after randomized study treatment discontinuation.
    • Agree to use highly-effective methods of contraception up to at least 30 days after study treatment discontinuation.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Mean sitting systolic blood pressure above 170 mmHg measured by "automated office blood pressure measurement" (AOBPM),
  • Mean sitting diastolic blood pressure above 105 mmHg measured by AOBPM,
  • Change in renal function requiring hospitalization, documented eGFR decline of greater than 20% in the 3 months prior to the screening visit, dialysis in the 3 months before the screening visit,
  • Planned dialysis or kidney transplant during the course of this study,
  • Nephrotic syndrome defined as urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio above 3000 mg/g,
  • Known and documented chronic heart failure.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Time Frame
Change from Baseline to Week 4 of double-blind treatment in mean trough sitting systolic blood pressure measured by automated office blood pressure measurement.
Time Frame: From baseline to Week 4 after treatment initiation
From baseline to Week 4 after treatment initiation

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change from baseline to Week 4 of double-blind treatment in mean trough sitting diastolic blood pressure measured by automated office blood pressure measurement.
Time Frame: From baseline to Week 4 after treatment initiation
From baseline to Week 4 after treatment initiation
Ratio to baseline of urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR) at Week 4
Time Frame: From baseline to Week 4 after treatment initiation
Evaluated in the subgroup of participants with a UACR greater than 30 mg/g at baseline.
From baseline to Week 4 after treatment initiation

Study Start (Anticipated)

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.
January 1, 2020

Primary Completion (Anticipated)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
