Study summary

This drug has been developed to treat Hyponatremia. The primary purpose of this study is to verify the efficacy and safety of seven-day repeated oral administration of tolvaptan at 15, 30, and 60 mg or placebo in patients with Non-hypovolemic Non-acute Hyponatremia secondary to Congestive Heart Failure (CHF), hepatic cirrhosis or Syndrome of Inappropriate Antidiuretic Hormone (SIADH), despite receiving standard therapy. This study is being conducted in China.
