Active clinical trials for "Familial Primary Pulmonary Hypertension"

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of an investigational/experimental drug called AIR001. To test the effectiveness, the study will evaluate how AIR001 affects the blood vessels in the lungs and the function of the heart. This will be done by monitoring changes in Pulmonary Vascular Resistance (PVR); from Baseline/Day 1 (start of study drug) to Week 16 of the study. PVR measures the resistance to flow in the blood vessels of the lungs. The study will include other assessments to evaluate the effect of the study drug on PAH, including measurements of exercise ability and evaluations of PAH disease symptoms.

As sitaxsentan is the agent most highly selective for ETA (Endothelin Type A (receptor)), and does not significantly impact sildenafil pharmacokinetics the combination of most promise for pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) therapy is these two oral drugs administered in combination.

As monotherapy for pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) begins to fail additional therapies are introduced. Although co-administration of sitaxsentan and sildenafil is well tolerated the controlled safety/efficacy database of the combination is limited.

This Phase 2, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter, dose-ranging study will compare the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of cicletanine hydrochloride (HCl) to placebo in subjects with PAH. Study drug will be administered alone, or on the background of stable PAH therapy. The study will consist of 3 periods: a screening period, a 12-week placebo-controlled treatment period, and a long-term, blinded extension period.

Multicenter, Open-label, Non-comparative, Proof-of-concept, Phase 2a Study to Evaluate the Effect of a Single Infusion of Tezosentan on Pulmonary Vascular Resistance in Patients With Stable, Chronic Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension, Currently Not Treated With Endothelin Receptor Antagonists, Phosphodiesterase-5 Inhibitors or Prostacyclines

This clinical trial will study the safety, tolerability, and pharmacodynamics of single doses of MK-8892 in participants with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). The primary objective is to estimate the measured peak effect of the highest acutely tolerated (HAT) single oral dose of MK-8892 on pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR).

This is a multi-center, Phase 2 Long-Term, Open Label Extension (OLE) Study to assess the safety and tolerability of pemziviptadil (PB1046) at an optimally titrated dose. This is a Long-Term, Open label Extension (OLE) Study for subjects with (PAH), having participated in double-blind Study PB1046-PT-CL-0004. The study will include adult subjects previously diagnosed with symptomatic PAH, who are receiving background clinician-directed therapy for PAH. During this period, subjects will continue to be followed for safety and tolerability, as well as for periodic efficacy, quality of life data and immunogenicity. The study will continue per the schedule of events until such time when pemziviptadil (PB1046) is able to be self-administered, becomes commercially available to the subjects in a particular country or region, or the sponsor terminates the study due to lack of efficacy, safety or other reasons.

This is a multi-center, randomized, double-blind, controlled, Phase 2 study to assess the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of pemziviptadil (PB1046) at the optimally titrated dose after 16 weeks of treatment. Subjects will be randomized in a 2:1 ratio to one of two parallel dose groups: a) high-dose group where PB1046 will be up-titrated from a 0.2 mg/kg minimally effective starting dose to a target high dose level of at least 1.2 mg/kg or higher to a maximally tolerated dose (MTD), or b) a low-dose group that will start at 0.2 mg/kg and remain at this minimally effective dose (MED) level with sham up-titration. The total treatment period will be comprised of 2 phases: 1) an initial 10 week dose titration phase in which weekly doses of PB1046 will be titrated (or sham titrated) up to a target dose level of at least 1.2 mg/kg or higher to the MTD, and 2) a maintenance of treatment phase that begins when subjects reach week 11 and continues for 6 weeks during which no further up-titration should occur.

The main objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of 12-week oral CXA-10 therapy in subjects with pulmonary arterial hypertension, with additional evaluation on the clinical efficacy of oral CXA-10 on changes in hemodynamics, exercise capacity, cardiovascular function and patient reported outcomes.

This protocol is for subjects with pulmonary arterial hypertension and is the first of 3 studies forming the Sitaxsentan efficacy and safety trial with Randomized Prospective Assessment of Adding Sildenafil (SR-PAAS) program.
