Active clinical trials for "Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension"

Though graded balloon-atrial-septostomy (BAS) has been accepted as an effective palliative therapy for severe pulmonary arterial hypertension, spontaneous closure of septostomy is not uncommon. Radiofrequency-catheter-ablation (RFA), which has the potential to cause irreversible damage around the rim of created inter-atrial communication, might contribute to prevent the spontaneous closure. In patients with severe pulmonary arterial hypertension, the combined use of RFA and BAS (CURB) is investigated to create a stable inter-atrial communication.

The purpose of this phase 2 multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, study is to assess the safety and efficacy of ifetroban in patients with diffuse cutaneous systemic SSc (dcSSc) or SSc-associated pulmonary arterial hypertension (SSc-PAH).

The goal of this crossover trial is to determine whether the study drug dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) improves right ventricular longitudinal strain measured by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging at 18 weeks compared to placebo and to assess side effects and safety in pulmonary arterial hypertension.

The investigators' central hypothesis is that early combination therapy with two PAH-specific oral therapies that have been shown to be well tolerated in the pediatric population, sildenafil and bosentan, will result in better World Health Organization (WHO) functional class at 12 months after initiation of PAH treatment than therapy with sildenafil alone.

This Phase 3, 2-part, open-label, multicenter study aims to demonstrate the safety and tolerability of L606 in patients with PAH or PH-ILD. The study will determine the short-term and long-term safety and tolerability of L606 in this patient population; also evaluate the steady-state pharmacokinetics (PK) of L606 as compared to Tyvaso, effects on exercise ability, quality of life, and treatment satisfaction with L606.

This prospective study is a multi-center early feasibility study assessing the safety and performance of the Aria CV Pulmonary Hypertension System in patients with pulmonary hypertension and right heart dysfunction.

In this study, the effects of kettlebell exercise training on functional capacity, dyspnea and activities of daily living in patients diagnosed with Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH) will be investigated.

This is a Phase 2, parallel group study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, PK, and exploratory efficacy of 3 doses of CS1 in the treatment of PAH using the CardioMEMS HF System to obtain repeated measurements of PAP and other hemodynamic parameters. Elegible subjects will have a RHC to implant the CardioMEMS pulmonary artery (PA) Sensor followed by a Baseline Period for the subject to become familiar with the system, its measurements, how to send the data, and establish Baseline PA pressure. Alternately, the subject may already have the CardioMEMS HF System and is willing to have the system recalibrated in conjunction with RHC. Thereafter, the subject will be randomly assigned to 1 of 3 total daily doses of CS1 1:1:1; there will be 10 subjects assigned to each dose level. Subjects will receive study drug treatment for 12 weeks. During the study, mPAP and other hemodynamic parameters from CardioMEMS PA Sensor will be measured and data captured once daily in the morning before the subject gets out of bed. The data will be transferred electronically to a repository. The analysis will look at the area under the curve (AUC) of mPAP and the doses will be compared to each other regarding change from Baseline. In addition to the CardioMEMS HF System measurements, the subjects will be followed for mortality and morbidity, important biomarkers as well as subjective, functional, and structural parameters of importance for PAH, for the duration of the study. Subjects will be enrolled for up to 22 weeks: a Screening Period of up to 2 weeks prior to the start of the Baseline Period, a Baseline Period of up to 6 weeks prior to Randomization, a Treatment Period of 12 weeks, and a Follow-up Period of 2 weeks. The primary objective of the study is to obtain safety and tolerability data.

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate superiority of macitentan 75 milligrams (mg) in prolonging the time to the first clinical events committee (CEC)-adjudicated morbidity or mortality (M/M) event in participants with symptomatic pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) compared to macitentan 10 mg.

The purpose of this study is to measure the long-term safety and efficacy profile of LTP001 in participants with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). The study offers participants who had completed the CLTP001A12201 double-blind parent study in PAH an opportunity to receive LTP001 (whether they were on LTP001 or not). Unblinding of the treatment received in CLTP001A12201 is generally not needed, but can occur on request by the investigator.
