Dose Escalation Study of KW-3902 on Diuresis in Subjects With Congestive Heart Failure (CHF).

January 28, 2008 updated by: NovaCardia, Inc.

A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo Controlled, Dose Escalation Study of the Effects of KW-3902 on Diuresis in Patients With Congestive Heart Failure (CHF) Refractory to High Dose Diuretic Therapy

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety of KW-3902IV compared to placebo and to determine the diuretic effect of KW-3902IV compared to placebo in patients hospitalized with volume overload due to CHF who are refractory to high dose diuretic therapy.
