E.1.3Condition being studied is a rare disease No
E.2 Objective of the trial
E.2.1Main objective of the trial
The primary objective of this study is to determine whether administration of lixivaptan can effectively and safely produce an increase in serum sodium from Baseline in HF patients with volume overload and hyponatremia.
E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
The secondary objectives of this study are that lixivaptan:
a. Demonstrates improvement in serum sodium concentrations (AUC) up to Day 60 within the double-blind on-therapy period for hyponatremic patients with serum sodium <135 mEq/L at Baseline.
b. Is associated with improvement in clinical status as measured by:
i. Changes in the Trail Making Test, part B following 28 days of dosing.
ii. Days alive and out of the hospital (for cardiovascular causes) within 60-Days of randomisation.
c. Prevents worsening of hyponatremia
d. Improves the percentage of patients with normalized serum sodium.
E.2.3Trial contains a sub-study Yes

E.3Principal inclusion criteria
1. Men and Women with age greater than or equal to 18 years.
2. Baseline Serum sodium concentration < 135 mEq/L. Repeat measures of serum sodium are alllowed; the last serum sodium result within 24 hours prior to randomization will serve as the qualifying measurement.
3. Current hospitalization for worsening of chronic congestive heart failure.
a) Chronic heart failure is defined as requiring treatment for a minimum of 30-Days prior to hospitalization. Study patients are expected to be on standard background therapy for Congestive Heart Failure.
4. The patient has clinical evidence of volume overload with at least two of the following:
a) dyspnea,
b) pulmonary congestion (rales),
c) peripheral edema,
d) increased jugular venous pressure and/or hepatic congestion with ascites,
e) chest x-ray consistent with CHF, or

17. Subjects who are on cardiac mechanical support.
18. History of bi-ventricular pacer placement within the last 30-Days.
19. Planned revascularization procedures, electrophysiologic (EP) device implantation, cardiac mechanical support implantation, ultrafiltration or dialysis, or other cardiac surgery within 30 days following study enrollment.
20. Serum creatinine > 3.0 mg/dL/265.2 mol/L.
21. Uncontrolled diabetes mellitus as defined by the Investigator (e.g. HbA1c > 9%).
22. Adrenal insufficiency, whether treated or not. If serum cortisol is less than the lower limit of the reference range, the patient is excluded and should be referred for follow-up evaluation.
23. History of primary significant liver disease or acute hepatic failure, as defined by the Investigator.
24. History of chronic drug/medication abuse within the 6 months, or current alcohol abuse.
25. Co-morbid condition with an expected survival less than six months.

Specific requirements for females
Women of child-bearing potential must demonstrate a negative urine pregnancy test prior to randomization and at the final study visit 30 days after the last dose of study drug. In addition, women of child-bearing potential must agree to use one of the methods of birth control detailed in 4.3 of the protocol for the entire study period including screening, the titration and treatment phases and the 30-day follow-up period.
E.5 End points
E.5.1Primary end point(s)
The change from baseline in serum sodium concentrations at day 7 of the double-blind on-therapy period for hyponatremic patients with serum sodium of <135 mEq/L at baseline.
