Define in Humans With Compensated CHF and Renal Dysfunction, the Modulating Action of Chronic AT1 Receptor Blockade in Addition to ACE Inhibition on Cardiorenal and Humoral Function
In Brief
A Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating Candesartan and Placebo for Cardiorenal Syndrome (CRS). Completed, enrolled 33 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
To advance our understanding of the mechanisms of human cardiorenal syndrome with emphasis upon the interaction of diuretic therapy and the renal-angiotensin-aldosterone -system and cGMP pathway. The belief is that the chronic AT1 receptor blockade in subjects with compensated CHF and renal dysfunction will improve renal function with increased sodium excretion, glomerular filtration rate and effective renal plasma flow and renal function reserve as compared to the response of placebo-treated subjects.
