Filter by:The purpose of this multi-center, open-label, safety and tolerability study was to assess the addition of oral treprostinil (UT-15C sustained release [SR] tablets) to subjects currently receiving Tyvaso (treprostinil) inhalation solution. During the 24-week evaluation period, the study evaluated the changes in the following assessments: hemodynamics, 6-minute walk test (6MWT), Borg dyspnea score, N-Terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), World Health Organization (WHO) Functional Class, and safety assessments. Eligible subjects had a diagnosis of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), currently were receiving Tyvaso, and may have been receiving other approved PAH specific oral therapies (endothelin receptor antagonists [ERAs] and/or phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitor [PDE5-I], if at a stable dose for ≥30 days). At Baseline, subjects received the first dose of 0.125 mg UT-15C SR.
This is an open-label, nonrandomized extension to study AC-066A301. The study will assess safety and tolerability of ACT-385781A while providing a means for continuing treatment after ending participation in study AC-066A301.
Ventavis it's a treatment for pulmonary hypertension, administered by an inhaler called I-Neb. In these patients, the non compliance of the treatment becomes its ineffective and increases the complications and mortality of the disease. It is therefore important to know which the adherence of patients to their treatment is and try to promote it. One possibility to reach a good level of adherence is the patient education regarding the drug administration and also to comply as better is possible the recommendations of the physician. For this reason, the objective of our study is to demonstrate improvement in the level of treatment compliance when they follow a strategy of continuing education, assessed by the device and software called Insight. The only special procedure to participate in the study then is that patients involved could receive more training than usual. Investigators expect involving in this study around 50 patients in treatment with Ventavis and diagnosed of Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension in 10-12 hospitals throughout Spain. The patients who participated in the study will be followed for 12 months from inclusion in the study and will perform around 5 visits in total.
The purpose of the study is to find out how the blood flow changes in the lungs of people with pulmonary hypertension compared to healthy individuals without pulmonary hypertension. We would like to find out if there are differences in how blood flows when subjects are given a drug to dilate (widen) the arteries in their lungs and when they breathe extra oxygen. We will compare the results to when subjects don't receive any drug or extra oxygen. We hope that knowing about these differences will help us to better understand pulmonary hypertension and how to diagnose it earlier.
This is a Phase 2, Placebo Controlled, Double-Blind, Randomized, Clinical Study to Determine Safety, Tolerability and Efficacy of Pulsed, Inhaled Nitric Oxide (iNO) Versus Placebo as Add-on Therapy in Symptomatic Subjects with Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH).
Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging has emerged as a potential valuable test for the early detection of Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension. A number of reports have provided some preliminary evidence that Pulmonary Artery (PA) stiffness may be accurately detected by imaging of the pulmonary artery in order to measure PA stiffness. In addition, cardiac MRI could play provide early and effective treatment for Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH).
This study will establish whether intravenous iron replacement has clinical benefit in idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension. A 24-week double-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled, crossover study will investigate whether a single dose of 1g of Ferinject® or CosmoFer improves cardiopulmonary haemodynamics, exercise capacity and quality of life and is well-tolerated.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of iron supplementation in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension and iron deficiency.
The objectives of this study are to develop research methods and corresponding materials for a study of the effectiveness of sitaxentan sodium (Thelin) in "real-world" settings; to pilot test these methods at three study centers in Europe; and to refine and finalize research methods and corresponding materials for possible use in a follow-on, full-scale examination of the effectiveness of sitaxentan sodium (Thelin) in "real-world" settings.
HYPID study is an observational and prospective study of patients with interstitial lung disease and pre capillary hypertension diagnosed by right heart sided catheterization. The primary aim of the study is to identify prognostic factors.
