Active clinical trials for "Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension"

Pilot study to determine the therapeutic effect of two prarallel groups treated with either Riciguat or Macitentan, evaluated by the change in systolic and diastolic RV function within 12 weeks after first drug intake in order to plan a larger Phase II study.

The purpose of this research study is to find out more about the drug treprostinil via inhaler and the mechanisms of why patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension related to Interstitial Lung disease (PAH-ILD) have limitations during exercise. The investigator is studying treprostinil's effect on patients with PAH-ILD during exercise and its effect on their quality of life after using it for 3 months.

The aim of the study is to determine whether conducting a randomized placebo-controlled clinical trial is feasible, safe for the patient and whether the treatment is well tolerated in patients with idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension.

Study KER-012-A201 is Phase 2, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study to determine the efficacy and safety of KER-012 compared to Placebo in adults with PAH (WHO Group 1 PH) on stable background PAH therapy. The study is divided into the Screening Period, Treatment Period, Extension Period, and Follow-Up Period.

The primary purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of the long-term use of TPIP in participants with PAH from studies INS1009-201 (NCT04791514), INS1009-202 (NCT05147805) and other lead-in studies of TPIP in participants with PAH.

To compare the effects of supervised endurance training versus home based exercise plan on functional capacity and fatigue among pulmonary arterial hypertension patients.

This is a prospective, single-arm, single-center, explorative clinical trial to evaluate the effect of Rituximab on disease progression in subjects with SLE-PAH receiving concurrent stable-dose standard medical therapy. The study will focus on assessment of clinical response and safety measures longitudinally. In addition, the biomarker of treatment efficacy with Rituximab and pathogenic autoantibody response in this disease will be investigated.

IMPAHCT-FUL: Inhaled iMatinib Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension Clinical Trial - Follow Up Long Term Extension (LTE) Trial is a follow up study to establish the long-term safety of AV-101. The long-term effects of AV-101 on efficacy measures will also be assessed. Subjects who successfully complete the 24-week placebo-controlled parent trial (AV-101-002) will be offered the opportunity to continue into this LTE study. Subjects who enroll in the study will receive one of three active AV-101 doses until such time as the optimal dose has been selected in the parent study.

Patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) have reduced health related quality of life (HRQOL) and impaired exercise capacity. Despite fourteen approved therapies, most patients die within ten years. Increasing physical activity is highly efficacious in PAH, resulting in six-minute walk distance (6MWD) and HRQOL improvement that often exceeds the effect of medications. Prior activity studies required inpatient rehabilitation, which is impractical, hard to sustain, and poorly scalable to a rare disease. The Investigators propose a randomized trial of smart texts versus usual care for 6 months. The Investigators will randomize 100 PAH patients to the mHealth intervention or usual care. The Investigators will test the effect of a text-based mHealth intervention on HRQOL in PAH using the PAH-specific emPHasis-10 questionnaire. The Investigators will also test the effect of an mHealth intervention on exercise capacity, measured by a supervised home-based 6MWD test. Finally, the Investigators will examine the effect of the intervention on time to clinical worsening (composite of PAH therapy escalation, PAH hospitalization, and death) one year after randomization.

This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter, multinational study investigating the effect of riociguat (MK-4836) in patients with early pulmonary vascular disease.
