Active clinical trials for "Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension"

This single center, open label, randomized, two-period, two-sequence cross-over study is designed to evaluate the relative bioavailability of a treprostinil diethanolamine 1 mg tablet in reference to treprostinil diethanolamine 1 mg oral solution (administered as four 0.25 mg doses every 2 hours for a 1 mg total dose) in twenty-four healthy volunteers. Other secondary outcomes of interest include assessment of pharmacokinetic parameters of treprostinil diethanolamine 1 mg tablets and a treprostinil diethanolamine 1 mg oral solution administered as four doses (0.25 mg every 2 hours for a 1 mg total dose) and evaluation of the safety and tolerability of each treatment regimen.

This study is investigating the effect of switching from Flolan® to Epoprostenol for Injection (EFI/ACT-385781A) in pulmonary arterial hypertension patients currently treated with Flolan®. For this purpose patients being treated for at least 12 months with Flolan® will be switched from Flolan® to EFI/ACT-385781A and followed-up for 90 days. During these 90 days safety and tolerability of EFI/ACT-385781A will closely be monitored in all treated patients. This 90 follow-up will provide clinical evidence on the safety, tolerability, efficacy and treatment satisfaction of switching from Flolan® to EFI/ACT-385781A in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension.

This is a 24-month, multi-center, prospective, open-label, safety evaluation in PAH subjects following transition from a stable dose of inhaled iloprost (Ventavis). Subjects are to be evaluated for safety throughout the course of the study while secondary assessments will be conducted at Baseline, Week 6, Week 12, and Months 6, 12, 18 and 24 following initiation of treprostinil sodium.

This is an open-label study for patients who participated in the BPS-MR-PAH-203 study and have volunteered to continue treatment for PAH with Beraprost Sodium Modified Release (BPS-MR) tablets.

The aim of the study is to assess the efficacy and safety of different doses of BAY63-2521 given orally for 12 weeks, in patients with symptomatic Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH).

This study is an international, multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study in subjects with PAH who are currently receiving approved therapy for their PAH (i.e., endothelin receptor antagonist and/or phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitor). Study visits will occur at 4 week intervals for 16 weeks with the key measure of efficacy being the 6-minute walk test. Study procedures include routine blood tests, medical history, physical exams, disease evaluation, and exercise tests. Patients who complete all assessments for 16-weeks will also be eligible to enter an open-label, extension phase study (FREEDOM - EXT).

The main objective of the AC 055 303/SERAPHIN OL study, which will follow the AC 055 302/SERAPHIN study, will be to assess the long-term safety and tolerability of ACT 064992 in patients with symptomatic PAH.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of vardenafil in the treatment of pulmonary arterial hypertension.

Patients with symptomatic idiopathic (IPAH) or familial (FPAH) pulmonary arterial hypertension in New York Heart Association (NYHA) class II to IV , naive to PAH treatment or currently being treated with a stable dose of either bosentan or sildenafil and who complete PROWESS 15 will be enrolled in the PROWESS 15 Extension study. This is a double-blind (12 week), randomized study to compare the safety and tolerability of inhaled iloprost power disc-15 and power disc-6 in patients with symptomatic pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). After completion of the double blind period, patients will be entered in the open label period using iloprost power disc-15.

Our hypothesis is that IV or SQ Treprostinil can improve 6 minute walk distance, hemodynamics and quality of life in patients with interstitial lung disease and severe secondary pulmonary arterial hypertension.
