Clinical Trial: Safety and Efficacy of RLX030 in Pregnant Women With Pre- Eclampsia

Study Status: Terminated
Recruit Status: Terminated
Study Type: Interventional

Official Title: An Adaptive Multicentre, Randomized, Partially Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Study to Assess the Safety, PK and PD/Efficacy of RLX030 in Women With Pre-eclampsia

Brief Summary: This study is designed in two parts. Part 1 will assess the safety and tolerability of different doses of RLX030 when given to pregnant women with pre- eclampsia (elevated blood pressure with protein in urine). Part 2 will assess whether an optimal dose of RLX030 can prolong pregnancy in women with pre-eclampsia.

Sponsor: Novartis Pharmaceuticals

Current Primary Outcome:

  • Number of Patients With Adverse Events, Serious Adverse and Death During Part 1 of the Study [ Time Frame: Prior to delivery until 4-6 weeks post partum (maximum of 8 weeks) ]
    Safety and tolerability was assessed by adverse events/serious adverse event and death monitoring.
  • Change From Baseline in Maternal Systolic Blood Pressure (SBP) and Diastolic Blood Pressure (DBP) in Part 1of the Study (Part 1) [ Time Frame: From baseline to during treatment period of a maximum 72 hours infusion prior to delivery until 4-6 weeks post partum in part 1 (maximum of 8 weeks) ]
    Maternal safety assessment to monitor pre-eclampsia by checking blood pressure during 72 hour treatment period as well as post-dose.
  • Change From Baseline in Mean Maternal Arterial Pressure (Part 1) [ Time Frame: From baseline to during treatment period of a maximum 72 hours infusion prior to delivery until 4-6 weeks post partum in part 1 (maximum of 8 weeks) ]
    Maternal safety assessment to monitor pre-eclampsia by checking mean arterial pressure during 72 hour treatment period as well as post-dose.
  • Change From Baseline on Maternal Proteinuria (Part 1) [ Time Frame: From baseline to during treatment period of a maximum 72 hours infusion prior to delivery until 4-6 weeks post partum in part 1 (maximum of 8 weeks) ]
    Pre-eclampsia was monitored by checking levels of protein in urine and by urinary protein/creatinine ratio (UPCR)
  • Decrease in Utero-placental Blood Flow (Part 1) [ Time Frame: During treatment period of
