Interaction Between a Calcimimetic Agent and the Renin Angiotensine Aldosterone System
- Conditions
- Relationship Between Calcimimetic and the RAAS
- Interventions
- Drug: Placebo oral tablet
- Registration Number
- NCT01519037
- Lead Sponsor
- Centre Hospitalier Universitaire Vaudois
- Brief Summary
The aim of this study is to evaluate, in healthy volunteers, the acute modulating effect of cinacalcet on the RAAS, the effect of furosemide on parathyroid secretion of PTH and the interaction between furosemide and cinacalcet on parathyroid hormone secretion.
- Detailed Description
The clinical trial will be monocentric (Service of Nephrology and Hypertension at CHUV, Lausanne) and will include 24 patients. The volunteers will get involved after inclusion (Inclusion Visit) in a crossover study over two double-blind periods. The order of the two periods (placebo or cinacalcet) will be randomized. Each period comprises 3 days of a low-sodium diet (50 mmol of Na+ per day, equivalent to 3 grams of salt/day), followed by an investigation day at the hospital during which the subjects will be studied before and after exposure to the cinacalcet or placebo. The 2 periods will be separated by a therapeutic wash-out lasting 14-28 days. The total length of the study per participant will be 1, max. 2 months.

Group Intervention Description calcimimetic agent (cinacalcet) Cinacalcet 60 MG 3 days of a low-sodium diet (50 mmol of Na+ per day, equivalent to 3 grams of salt/day), followed by an investigation day at the hospital during which the subjects will be studied before and after exposure to the cinacalcet or the placebo. The 2 periods will be separated by a therapeutic wash-out lasting 14-28 days. The total length of the study per participant will be 1, max. 2 months Placebo Placebo oral tablet 3 days of a low-sodium diet (50 mmol of Na+ per day, equivalent to 3 grams of salt/day), followed by an investigation day at the hospital during which the subjects will be studied before and after exposure to the cinacalcet or placebo. The 2 periods will be separated by a therapeutic wash-out lasting 14-28 days. The total length of the study per participant will be 1, max. 2 months
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Effect of cinacalcet compared to placebo on plasma renin activity up to 36 days to determine the acute effect of a single high dose of cinacalcet compared to placebo on plasma renin activity (PRA), under RAAS-stimulating conditions (low sodium diet, furosemide injection) by PRA plasma measure
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method effect of cinacalcet administered as single dose (compared to placebo) on plasma aldosterone and on hemodynamics up to 36 days to determine the effect of cinacalcet administered as single dose (compared to placebo) on plasma aldosterone and on hemodynamics (blood pressure, heart rate), under RAAS stimulating conditions (low sodium diet, furosemide injection).
