简要总结
The purpose of this study is to determine if cachexia and changes in body composition influence pharmacokinetics of bisoprolol and ramipril and the accuracy of equations for renal function estimation.
详细描述
Patients with chronic heart failure on treatment with bisoprolol and/or ramipril will be included. Study will consist of two study visits: baseline visit (V1) and visit which will be performed at least 6 months after baseline (V2). At both visits same procedures will be performed. On the day of the visit, patients will be asked to take their morning dose of bisoprolol and/or ramipril after the withdrawal of the first morning plasma sample. Additional 3 to 5 plasma samples will be taken within 5 hours post bisoprolol and/or ramipril dose in order to determine pharmacokinetic profile of both drugs. Body composition will be measured by bioimpedance and dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. Renal function will be measured by clearance of intravenously administered iohexol. Biochemical parameters, muscle strength, fatigue and anorexia will be assessed in order to determine presence of cachexia.
Changes in body composition will be correlated with changes in pharmacokinetic parameters of bisoprolol and ramipril. Pharmacokinetic parameters in cachectic patients will be compared to pharmacokinetic parameters in non-cachectic patients. Parameters of body composition will be correlated with the difference between measured and estimated renal function.

结局指标
主要结局
Pharmacokinetic parameters of bisoprolol and ramipril
时间窗: Baseline and 6 months
Pharmacokinetic parameters of bisoprolol and ramipril(clearance, volume of distribution, area under concentration-time curve, maximal concentration, time to maximal concentration) will be determined. The relation between pharmacokinetic parameters and body composition/cachexia will be assessed.
