Heart Failure

BAY58-2667, iv dose titration over 6h infusion in patients

Trial purpose

Primary objective:
Part A: To investigate the hemodynamic and subjective effects on dyspnea as well as well-being of the subjects following 3 intravenous (IV) doses of BAY 58-2667 given over 2 h per dose step in a dose escalation manner.
Part B: To investigate the hemodynamic effects of BAY 58-2667 given IV over 6 h.

Secondary objectives:
Part A: To investigate the safety, tolerability, pharmacodynamics (PD), and pharmacokinetics (PK) of the respective dose levels.
Part B: To investigate the safety, tolerability, PD, PK, and subjective effects on dyspnea of the respective dose levels of BAY 58-2667.
