Single dose oral bioequivalence study of Riociguat 2.5 mg film coated tablets and 'Adempas' (Riociguat) 2.5 mg Filmtabletten (film coated tablets) in healthy adult male subjects under fasting conditions.
This study aims to assess the safety and tolerability of the individual highest tolerated zamicastat doses, achieved in the study BIA-51058-201, during long-term treatment in Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH) disease.
Exploring the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetic (PK) characteristics of oral TPN171H tablets in patients with Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension under continuous multiple administration conditions, providing a basis for determining the administration plan and recommended dosage in phase II clinical study.
To compare the effects of supervised endurance training versus home based exercise plan on functional capacity and fatigue among pulmonary arterial hypertension patients.
Assessment of the prognostic value of the estimation of plasma volume or its variation in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) or chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) after acute right heart failure.
Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension is a progressive disease that has no cure. Patients die young and are limited in their daily activity. Current treatments only treat the symptoms of the disease rather than the underlying cause. At least 1 in 5 patients has a change in a gene called the bone morphogenetic type 2 protein (or BMPR2). Extensive evidence supports the concept of addressing the reduced levels of the BMPR2 protein to reverse disease. Through work already undertaken by this group, two potential therapies which increase BMPR2 have been identified for use in a future randomised control trial. In order for a clinical trial to be informative we need an accurate way of measuring the protein or the effects of the protein (known as a biomarker). This study will use blood samples taken from 17 patients and 30 healthy participants over various time-points (2-5 visits over 5 weeks for healthy controls; 2 visits, approximately four months apart for patients). Laboratory work will help identify the best biomarkers for subsequent therapy studies. By defining the best biomarkers we can speed up the drug development in this rare disease.
This observational study will involve analysis of data collected by the National Rare Disease Registry or medical records .The study will describe outcomes only in PAH(Pulmonary arterial hypertension) patients treated with sildenafil; there will be no comparison with another treatment group. Approximately 100 adults with PAH will be recruited in China hospitals This NIS(non-interventional study) data will be recorded by a physician in the medical records, during the patients' clinical visits, and in the electronic Case Report Forms (CRF).
The purpose of this study is to test new technology and health coaching aimed to help people with PAH become more physically active in their daily lives.
Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a disease where the blood pressure in the pulmonary arteries (PAP) is high. PAH increases the risk of adverse events, including death, during and or after procedures. The severity of baseline PAH correlates with the incidence of major complications, such that those with PAP higher than their systemic blood pressure (SBP) had a 8 fold increased risk of complications. These children present for procedures where an acute exacerbation of their chronic illness-termed Pulmonary Hypertensive (PH)crisis, can occur, often resulting in death if not detected and managed expeditiously. Unfortunately there is little data and no consensus in the pediatric literature on how PH crisis should be managed. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
