A Safety and Pharmacodynamic Study of Healthy Chinese Subjects Administered Sodium Zirconium Cyclosilicate (ZS)

Phase 1
Completed
Conditions
Hyperkalemia
Interventions
Drug: Sodium Zirconium Cyclosilicate (ZS)
Registration Number
NCT03283267
Lead Sponsor
AstraZeneca
Brief Summary

This is a single center, inpatient, open label pharmacodynamic study to determine the effect of 5 g and 10 g doses of Sodium Zirconium Cyclosilicate (ZS) administered once daily (qd) for 4 days on potassium and sodium excretion in healthy Chinese subjects on a standardized, low sodium and high potassium diet.

Detailed Description

This study will be conducted at 1 study centre in Hong Kong. Approximately 22 Subjects will be screened to achieve 20 subjects completing the study. Subjects will be randomized to receive ZS 5 g or 10 g (1:1) once daily (qd) in conjunction with breakfast and will be continued with a standard diet during the ZS treatment period.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Mean change from baseline to ZS treatment period in urine potassium excretion.Study Day 3 and 4 vs Study Day 7 and 8.

The 48- hour urine potassium excretion on Study Days 3 and 4 (baseline) will be compared with 48-hour urine potassium excretion on Study Days 7 and 8 (on study drug).

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Mean change from baseline to ZS treatment period in urine sodium excretion.Study Day 3 and 4 vs Study Day 7 and 8.

The 48- hour urine sodium excretion on Study Days 3 and 4 (baseline) will be compared with 48- hour urine sodium excretion on Study Days 7 and 8 (on study drug).

Mean change from baseline to ZS treatment period in serum potassium (S-K).Study Day 3 and 4 vs Study Day 7 and 8.

Mean change in S-K from the Baseline Period (Day 3 and 4) to the ZS Treatment Period (Day 7 and 8).
