Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: Eligible patients are ≥ 18 years old and have been treated with at least 2 doses of tolvaptan for one occurrence of hyponatraemia secondary to SIADH during 2014. If the number of patients treated with tolvaptan in 2014 in the participating centres is not sufficient to reach the intended sample size, this retrospective enrolment period could be extended to include patients treated in 2013. A mix of centres and treating departments (e.g. endocrinology, nephrology, etc.), will be selected within each participating country in order to provide a sufficiently representative sample of patients treated with tolvaptan for hyponatraemia secondary to SIADH.

Who may be able to join

  • Provision of patient informed consent unless a) not required by local regulations, b) it would take a non reasonable effort or c) if the source patient is deceased or untraceable.
  • Female and/or male patients aged 18 years and over.
  • Patients who received at least 2 doses of tolvaptan, for the treatment of one occurrence of hyponatraemia secondary to SIADH.

Who cannot join

  • A patient cannot take part in this study if participating in any other clinical study in which the medicinal product aims to treat the causes or symptoms of hyponatraemia at the time of the hyponatraemia episode being documented in the current study.

About this study

Official title: A Non Interventional, Retrospective Study on Real World Usage and Treatment Outcomes of Patients Treated With Tolvaptan for Hyponatraemia Due to the SIADH.

This is a retrospective chart review non-interventional study designed to collect real world data on the use and outcomes of tolvaptan for the treatment of patients with hyponatraemia secondary to syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone (SIADH) secretion.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Change in Sodium Levels From Start of Treatment With Tolvaptan Until Hospital Discharge

    The primary variable of the study was the change in sodium levels from baseline to discharge or the final available measurement for patients who were not discharged (up to 6 weeks after treatment initiation).

    Measured: From Baseline Up to discharge (or a maximum of 6 weeks after start of treatment)

Secondary outcomes (10)
  1. Change in Sodium Levels 24 Hours After Treatment Initiation

    Change in sodium level from last value prior to receiving tolvaptan until last available measurement within 24 hours of initiation of tolvaptan

    Measured: From Baseline (treatment initiation with tolvaptan) up to 24 hours afterwards

  2. Change in Sodium Levels 6 Weeks After Treatment Initiation

    Change in sodium level from last value prior to receiving tolvaptan until last available measurement up to week 6

    Measured: From Baseline (treatment initiation with tolvaptan) up to 6 weeks afterwards

  3. Time (Hours) to Sodium Normalisation

    Time (hours) to sodium normalisation, defined as a serum sodium level > 135 mmol/L, by evaluation of serum sodium levels in relation to the episode of hyponatraemia secondary to SIADH being captured in the study (up to 6 weeks after treatment initiation).

    Measured: From Baseline (treatment initiation with tolvaptan) up to 6 weeks afterwards

  4. Percentage of Participants Distributed by the Primary Disease Diagnoses Leading to SIADH (Cancer, Pulmonary Disease, CNS Disorder, Etc.,)

    Primary disease diagnoses leading to SIADH by evaluation of diagnosis information in relation to the episode of hyponatraemia being captured in the study from the patient's medical records

    Measured: Baseline

  5. Symptoms Associated With Hyponatraemia (Number of Symptomatic/Asymptomatic Patients in the Study Population)

    symptoms associated with hyponatraemia by evaluation of symptomatology information in relation to the episode of hyponatraemia being captured in the study from the patient's medical records

    Measured: Baseline

  6. Percentage of Participants Distributed by the Specialties of Their Clinicians Prescribing Tolvaptan (e.g., Endocrinologists, Nephrologists, Oncologists, Etc.,)

    specialty of the clinician prescribing tolvaptan by evaluation of details of the physician who prescribed tolvaptan for the episode of hyponatraemia being captured in the study from the patient's medical records

    Measured: Baseline

  7. Average Daily Dose of Tolvaptan Used and Treatment Duration (Expressed in Days) for the Episode of Hyponatraemia Being Captured in the Study

    Average daily dose of tolvaptan used and treatment duration (expressed in days) for the episode of hyponatraemia secondary to SIADH being captured in the study by evaluation of dosing information (and dates) from the patient's medical records (up to 6 weeks after the initiation of tolvaptan treatment).

    For these outcome measures, only days on treatment were considered (e.g. if tolvaptan treatment was interrupted and resumed afterwards, the days withot treatment were not considered).

    Measured: From Baseline (treatment initiation with tolvaptan) up to 6 weeks afterwards

  8. Time (Days) to Sodium Normalisation

    Time (days) to sodium normalisation, defined as a serum sodium level > 135 mmol/L, by evaluation of serum sodium levels in relation to the episode of hyponatraemia secondary to SIADH being captured in the study (up to 6 weeks after treatment initiation).

    Measured: From Baseline (treatment initiation with tolvaptan) up to 6 weeks afterwards

  9. Number of Participants With Presence of Different Symptoms Associated With Hyponatraemia

    symptoms associated with hyponatraemia by evaluation of symptomatology information in relation to the episode of hyponatraemia being captured in the study from the patient's medical records

    Measured: Baseline

  10. Average Treatment Duration for the Episode of Hyponatraemia Being Captured in the Study

    Average treatment duration for the episode of hyponatraemia secondary to SIADH being captured in the study by evaluation of dosing information (and dates) from the patient's medical records (up to 6 weeks after the initiation of tolvaptan treatment).

    For these outcome measures, only days on treatment were considered (e.g. if tolvaptan treatment was interrupted and resumed afterwards, the days withot treatment were not considered).

    Measured: From Baseline (treatment initiation with tolvaptan) up to 6 weeks afterwards

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change in Sodium Levels From Start of Treatment With Tolvaptan Until Hospital Discharge (time frame: From Baseline Up to discharge (or a maximum of 6 weeks after start of treatment)). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02545101, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
