Oral V<sub>2</sub> receptor antagonist (RWJ‐351647) in patients with cirrhosis and ascites: a randomized, double‐blind, placebo‐controlled, single ascending dose study
Bibliographic record
Abstract
BACKGROUND: RWJ-351647 is a selective V2 receptor antagonist that inhibits vasopressin-induced water reabsorption in the kidney. AIM: To investigate the safety and tolerability of RWJ-351647 compared with placebo after single oral dose administration to patients with cirrhosis and ascites, on a stable treatment with furosemide and spironolactone. METHODS: Single oral doses of 1, 2 and 5 mg of RWJ-351647 were administered to 24 patients with ascites on stable concomitant diuretic treatment. RESULTS: RWJ-351647 had a tmax of 1 to 1.1 h and mean half-life of 10.4-17.4 h. There was no affect on the pharmacokinetics of concomitant diuretics. Increases in cumulative urine volume and free water excretion, and a decrease in urine osmolality were noted in a dose-dependent manner reaching the statistical significance at the 5-mg dose. Four patients exhibited a decrease of > 2 kg in weight in the 24 h after dosing. RWJ-351647 was well tolerated, with no evidence of a dose-related increase in adverse events when compared with placebo. No changes in either serum chemistry or plasma AVP (arginine vasopressin) and renin levels were observed despite the observed aquaresis. CONCLUSION: RWJ-351647 is an effective aquaretic causing dose-dependent increases in urine output and free water clearance, when co-administered with conventional diuretics in patients with cirrhosis and ascites.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
