Key result
Selective A1 receptor blockade with BG9719 improved creatinine clearance (127 vs 62 ml/min, p<0.05) and induced natriuresis and diuresis in a pig model of CHF without adverse cardiac effects.
Why the study?
Does A1 receptor blockade improve renal function and hemodynamics in a pig model of congestive heart failure?
Does A1 receptor blockade improve renal function and hemodynamics in a pig model of congestive heart failure?
Absolute Event Rate: 127% vs 62%
p-value: p=<0.05
Selective A1 receptor blockade improves glomerular filtration rate, diuresis, and natriuresis without adverse cardiac effects in a preclinical model of heart failure.

Supports renal benefits of A1 blockade in porcine HF; leaves open human efficacy and safety trials.
Lucas et al. (2001) studied Congestive heart failure (n=20). BG9719 (A1 receptor blockade) vs. Vehicle only was evaluated on Creatinine clearance (p=<0.05). Selective A1 receptor blockade with BG9719 improved creatinine clearance (127 vs 62 ml/min, p<0.05) and induced natriuresis and diuresis in a pig model of CHF without adverse cardiac effects.
