Targeting Pulsatile Load to Increase Exercise Capacity and Quality of Life After Aortic Valve Replacement for Severe Aortic Stenosis (PULSE AS)
In Brief
A Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating Potassium Nitrate and Potassium Chloride for Aortic Valve Stenosis. Completed, enrolled 5 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The current trial is designed to assess the safety and efficacy of sustained oral administration of inorganic nitrate in patients with severe aortic stenosis and to assess the mechanisms by which inorganic nitrate enhances oxygen uptake and exercise capacity in this population.

Timeline
Interventions
Potassium nitrate capsules will consist of potassium nitrate (KNO3-) crystals \[610 mg, corresponding to 6.03 mmoles of NO3-\] with 190mg of lactose monohydrate, spray dried, NF. The dose for this trial will be 18 mmoles of NO3-per day, given as one capsule (6 mmoles) three times a day.
Potassium chloride capsules will consist of potassium chloride (KCl), granular, USP (450mg) plus lactose monohydrate, spray dried, NF (300mg). The dose for this trial will be 18 mmoles of KCl per day, given as one capsule (6 mmoles) three times a day.
