Active clinical trials for "Familial Primary Pulmonary Hypertension"

This was a multicenter, open-label study to evaluate the dose of Orenitram® (treprostinil) Extended Release Tablets achieved at 16 weeks after a short-term course of Remodulin® (treprostinil) Injection in subjects with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH).

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of Rodatristat Ethyl in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) patients.

The study evaluates the effect of macitentan on right ventricular and hemodynamic properties in patients with symptomatic pulmonary arterial hypertension. Patients are treated with macitentan for 1 year. Patients undergo right heart catheterization (RHC) at baseline and Week 26. They also undergo cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) at baseline, Week 26 and Week 52. Safety is monitored throughout the study. The study has three stub-studies. Each patient can participate in no sub-study or in one sub-study. The sub-studies are: (1) metabolism sub-study (with PET-MR scans); (2) biopsy sub-study (biopsies taken during the RHC); (3) Echo sub-study.

The study is a single center randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled crossover study to assess the effects of beetroot juice in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension.

This is a multicenter, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled Phase 3 study, to assess the efficacy and safety of BPS-314d-MR when added-on to inhaled treprostinil (Tyvaso®)in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension. Patients new to Tyvaso, will enter a run-in period on inhaled treprostinil until 90 days of experience is achieved to ensure drug tolerability before enrolling in the study. Treatment groups consist of one active and one placebo group. Subjects will be randomly allocated in a 1:1 ratio to one of the two treatment groups.

Mutations in bone morphogenetic protein receptor 2 (BMPR2) are present in >80% of familial and ~20% of sporadic pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) patients. Furthermore dysfunctional BMP signaling is a general feature of pulmonary hypertension even in non-familial PAH. We therefore hypothesized that increasing BMP signaling might prevent and reverse the disease. We screened > 3500 FDA approved drugs for their propensity to increase BMP signaling and found FK506 (Tacrolimus) to be a strong activator of BMP signaling. Tacrolimus restored normal function of pulmonary artery endothelial cells, prevented and reversed experimental PAH in mice and rats. Given that Tacrolimus is already FDA approved with a known side-effect profile, it is an ideal candidate drug to use in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension. The aims of our trial are: Establish the Safety of FK506 in patients with PAH. Evaluate the Efficacy of FK506 in PAH Identify ideal candidates for future FK506 phase III clinical trial.

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety of ranolazine in people with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) and who are receiving 1 or more background PAH therapies: ambrisentan, sildenafil,tadalafil, epoprostenol, treprostinil (IV, SC, inhaled), or iloprost. The primary objective is: To estimate the effect of ranolazine administration on acute hemodynamics. To assess safety of ranolazine acutely over 6 hrs in the catheterization lab and after 12 weeks of therapy To assess changes in right ventricular function after 12 weeks of therapy.

This study is an international, multi-center, open-label study designed to provide oral treprostinil (UT-15C) to eligible subjects with pulmonary arterial hypertension who have completed the TDE-PH-310 study. The purpose of this study is to assess the long-term safety of UT-15C and to assess the effects of long-term treatment with UT-15C on exercise capacity.

This is a placebo-controlled, double-blind, phase II clinical study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Udenafil in patient with Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension(PAH).

A phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to assess safety and efficacy of ambrisentan in subjects with pulmonary arterial hypertension.
