Overview

Brief Summary

This is a pilot, multinational, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, 2-part safety and efficacy study. Subjects will consist of patients hospitalized for acute decompensated heart failure with persistent hypotension.

Detailed Description

This is a pilot, multinational, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, 2-part safety and efficacy study. Subjects will consist of males or females 18 to 85 years of age, hospitalized for acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) with persistent hypotension (systolic blood pressure \[SBP\] 70-100 mmHg for two hours). Part A will dose all subjects for 24 hours with either 1.0 µg/kg/min or placebo; Part B will dose all subjects for 60 hours with two different regimens of istaroxime or placebo. Enrollment of Part A and Part B will be sequential. Up to 30 sites in Part A; up to 15 sites in Part B. Sites may be located in Europe, Asia, South America, and North America.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • Clinical presentation consistent with SCAI Stage B pre-cardiogenic shock caused by acute decompensation of chronic systolic heart failure (due to arterial hypertension, ischemic heart disease or dilated cardiomyopathy), without evidence for an acute coronary syndrome.
  • Signed informed consent form (ICF);
  • Males and females, 18 to 85 years of age (inclusive);
  • An admission for acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) episode within 36 hours prior to randomization, defined as:
  • Dyspnea, at rest or with minimal exertion;
  • Congestion on chest x-ray or lung US with B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) ≥ 400 pg/mL or NT-proBNP ≥ 1400 pg/mL; Elective admissions for medications tune up or procedures do not qualify as an ADHF admission.
  • History of left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≤ 40%;
  • Persistent hypotension defined as:
  • SBP of 75 to 90 mmHg (Part A) or 70 to 100 mmHg (Part B) for ≥ 2 hours prior to Screening;
  • SBP does not decrease by \> 7 mmHg on two separate measurements during the last 2 hours prior to randomization;

Exclusion Criteria

  • Cardiogenic shock of SCAI Stage C or worse
  • Cardiogenic shock due to any other condition besides acute decompensation of chronic heart failure.
  • Any of the following in the past 30 days: acute coronary syndrome, coronary revascularization, myocardial infarction (MI), coronary artery bypass graft (CABG), or percutaneous coronary intervention;
  • Current (within 6 hours of Screening) or anticipated need for treatment with positive inotropic agents or vasopressors, renal support including ultrafiltration, or mechanical circulatory, ventilatory or renal support (intra-aortic balloon pump, endotracheal intubation, mechanical ventilation, or any ventricular assist device);
  • Venous Lactate \> 2 mmol/L;
  • History of heart transplant or United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS) priority 1a heart transplant listing
  • Ongoing treatment with digoxin (if digoxin was stopped before signing the ICF and the digoxin plasma level is \< 0.5 ng/ml, the patient may be enrolled);
  • Severe renal impairment (estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) \< 30 ml/min, calculated by the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) formula);
  • Hypersensitivity to the study medication or any of its excipients (including known lactose hypersensitivity) or any related medication;
  • Stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA) within 3 months;

Intervention: Istaroxime

Istaroxime and Placebo - Part B

Istaroxime IV infusion at 0.5 µg/kg/min for 48 hours, followed by placebo IV infusion for 12 hours.

Intervention: Istaroxime
