October 2, 2019 updated by: Otsuka Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.

A Phase 2, Multicenter, Placebo-controlled, Double-blind, Randomized, Parallel-group Trial to Investigate the Efficacy and Safety of Orally Administered Tolvaptan (OPC-41061) in Patients With Chronic Renal Failure Undergoing Hemodialysis or Hemodiafiltration

This is a study to investigate the efficacy and safety of OPC-41061 by 24-week oral administration of OPC-41061 at 15-mg or 30-mg or placebo in patients with chronic renal failure who are undergoing hemodialysis or hemodiafiltration and who have daily urine volume of at least 500 mL/day.
