2 Contents 1. AVP and body fluid balance 2. AVP disorder and hyponatremia 3. Prevalence, morbidity and mortality 4. Current treatment strategy 5. AVP antagonists- Samsca (tolvaptan) 6. Indication and warning AVP: Arginine Vasopressin

3 Body Fluid Compartments water is the largest component of our body; since the major determinant of body water is AVP-regulated water excretion by the kidneys, it follows logically that AVP must be the most important hormone in the body

4 AVP Stimulation and Effects hyperosmolality hypovolemia angiotensin II + baroreceptors natriuretic peptides AVP V1a Receptors V2 Receptors vasoconstriction renal H 2 O reabsorption

5 Vasa recta AVP Regulation of Water Reabsorption from Renal Tubular Cells AVP AQP3 AVP V 2 Receptor GTP (Gs) Collecting Duct Cell ATP camp PKA AQP2 Exocytic Insertion H 2 O AQP2 H 2 O Collecting duct AQP4 Recycling vesicle Endocytic Retrieval basolateral membrane apical membrane

16 Clinical Pathway of Hyponatremia?

17 Fluid Restriction is the Most Common Treatment of Hyponatremia fluid restriction in patients with SIADH corrects hyponatremia by only 1 2 meq/l/d, even when severe (<500 ml/d) in addition, fluid restriction is poorly tolerated because of increased thirst, with subsequent poor compliance Schwartz et al, Am J Med 23: , 1957

18 Therapy isotonic saline hypertonic saline fluid restriction demeclocycline mineralocorticoid urea AVP antagonist Targets pathophysiology limitations ineffective in dilutional hyponatremias; can t be used in edema-forming disorders; no controlled safety database no consensus re appropriate infusion rates; overcorrection can cause osmotic demyelination; can t be used in edema-forming disorders; no controlled safety database slow to correct over many days; poorly tolerated due to thirst; can t be used with high AVP levels and urine osmolalities inconsistent responses; slow to correct; nephrotoxic in cirrhosis and CHF only one report in elderly patients with SIADH; no safety database; can t be used in edemaforming disorders no USP formulation; not FDA approved for hyponatremia; poor palatability conivaptan approved only for in-hospital use; infusion-site reactions with iv use Tolvaptan approved oral use for in-hospital and out-hospital

48 SAMSCA 衛署核准適應症

49 警語 警語 : 應在醫院中開始或重新開始用藥並監視血清鈉濃度 SAMSCA 只有在可嚴密監視血清鈉濃度的醫院中才可開始或重新開始使用 低血鈉症矯正速度過快 ( 如 >12 meq/l/24 小時 ) 會引起滲透壓去髓鞘症候群, 繼而導致發音困難 失語 吞嚥困難 嗜睡 情緒改變 痙攣性四肢麻痺 癲癇發作 昏迷及死亡 對容易發生的患者, 包括嚴重營養不良 酒精中毒或晚期肝病的患者, 應以較緩慢的速度進行矯正

50 SAMSCA Contraindication Reference: SAMSCA label

51 How to monitor the overcorrect hyponatremia When using SAMSCA SAMSCA Should be initiated and reinitiated in patients only in a hospital where serum sodium can be monitored closely. should continue ingestion of fluid in response of thirst During initiation and titration, frequently monitor for changes in serum electrolytes and volume. Reference: SAMSCA label

52 Summary Hyponatremia is common and associated with significant morbidity and mortality Treatment depends upon the underlying cause Rate of correction must be tailored to duration and severity of symptoms Rapid correction for acute hyponatremia with symptoms Slow correction for chronic hyponatremia to avoid ODS Samsca (tolvaptan) suitable, safe, and effective for chronic euvolemic or hypervolemic hyponatremia

53 Thank you and your comments!

54 Italy: Samsca already included in The Lung Cancer Guidelines (July 2012) Guidelines Guidelines for the management of Lung Cancer Patient Recommendations The restriction of fluid intake to 500 ml and a urinary output of more than 500 ml is an option for patients with symptomatic Hyponatremia and SIADH LEVEL OF EVIDENCE III AND GRADE OF RECOMMENDATION B In patients with symptomatic Hyponatremia lasted for more than 48 hours, the correction of serum sodium levels should be done slowly (1.5 up to 2) and must not exceed 10-12mEq/l in the first 24 hours, in order to avoid the risk of a syndrome by osmotic demyelization LEVEL OF EVIDENCE III AND GRADE OF RECOMMENDATION A If the patient is asymptomatic, the correction should take place more slowly (0.5) and should not exceed meq/l in the first 24 hours LEVEL OF EVIDENCE III AND GRADE OF RECOMMENDATION A The Demociclina (not approved in Italy for Hyponatremia) was recommended in the past as second line therapy of Hyponatremia LEVEL OF EVIDENCE III AND GRADE OF RECOMMENDATION D The Conivaptan, was approved for use in patients hospitalized with Hyponatremia. its administration is intravenous LEVEL OF EVIDENCE III AND GRADE OF RECOMMENDATION B Tolvaptan, indicated in SIADH, is administered orally and has proven effective in normalizing serum sodium concentration in various pathological conditions. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE I AND GRADE OF RECOMMENDATION A

55 Story 1 Idiopathic SIADH with Relapse Hyponatremia

56 Apply SAMSCA to Hyponatremia Caused by Idiopathic SIADH Could Significantly Increase SSL The SSL of patients various during in/out patient. 1.Accept conventional therapy for hyponatremia in-patient but did not improve SSL obviously 2.After taking 15mg SAMSA, Patient s SSL become normal and hyponatremia release 3.After discharge and routine checking SSL, it was maintaining on 140mmol/L Reference :Adapted from Taiwan Medical Journal vol 55 No11,2012

57 Urine output 24 小時小便量 (ml) 體重 (kgw) Body Weight Apply SAMSCA to Hyponatremia Caused by Idiopathic SIADH, Also Significantly Effect Urine Output and Body Weight 尿量 體重 Tolvaptan (15mg/d) 5/26 5/27 5/28 5/29 5/30 5/31 6/1 6/2 6/3 6/4 6/5 6/6 6/7 Date Tolvaptan (15mg/d) Urine output(the blue line) increase and body weight decrease (the orange line) obviously when using SAMSCA, If stop drug without water restriction,urine output decrease, and body weight increase. After adding on SAMSCA, the patient s condition recovered. Reference :Adapted from Taiwan Medical Journal vol 55 No11,2012

58 Half Dosage Efficacy of SAMSCA

59 Conclusion SAMSCA,with its unique aquaresis effect,could significantly increase SSL, no matter in idiopathic SIADH, secondary SIADH or HF SAMSCA could become standard prescription to benefit to treat underlying disease in good condition.
