About this trial

A multicenter, randomized, controlled study in Sweden (n=110). This study consists of 2 phases: 1) open-label run-in within approximately 2 months, and 2) randomized, double-blinded and placebo-controlled treatment for 6 months.

The open-label phase, in turn, consists of three periods: up-titration (normally 1 - 2 weeks, and longer in some cases), correction (maximum 72 hours) and maintenance (4 - 7 weeks).

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

1. >70 yrs. 2. Regardless of LVEF but EF measured within past 2 years. For HFpEF echo criteria defined by ≥2 of: LV wall thickness ≥ 12 mm; LV mass index (BSA indexed LVH): male >115 g/m2, female >95 g/m2; relative wall thickness ≥0.42; E/e' ≥15 in sinus rhythm (or > 11 in the setting of atrial fibrillation); tricuspid regurgitation velocity >2.8 m/s; Left atrial volume index >34 ml/m2.

Prior hyperkalemia (S-K> 5.0 mmol/L or P-K> 4.8 mmol/L*) during MRA treatment within last 24 months, and current S-K ≤ 5.0 or P-K ≤ 4.8 mmol/L

Current S-K 4.5-5.0 mmol/L or P-K 4.3-4.8 mmol/L, and potential risk of hyperkalemia as indicated by eGFR 30-45 ml/min/1,73 m2

Current S-K 5.1-5.9 mmol/L or P-K 4.9-5.7 mmol/L

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

% of optimizing MRA between Sodium Zirconium Cyclosilicate treated vs control

The efficacy will be assessed by difference in the proportion of patients who may or may not maintain MRA at a dose ≥ 25 mg da

Time frame
From enrollment to the end of treatment at 6 months
2
