Clinical Trial Summary

AMB-320/321-E was designed to provide long-term, controlled monitoring of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) patients treated with ambrisentan (AMB) in order to properly define the adverse event profile associated with this endothelin receptor antagonist (ERA), including the incidence and severity of elevated serum liver function tests (LFTs). In addition, this study continued the efficacy assessments of the previous studies, examined long-term AMB treatment success, and compared long-term survival of subjects treated with AMB to the NIH registry of patients with PAH.


Clinical Trial Description

AMB-320 (ARIES-1; NCT00423748) and AMB-321 (ARIES-2; NCT00423202) were 12-week, Phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter, efficacy studies of AMB in subjects with PAH. The objectives of these studies were to determine the effect of three doses of AMB (2.5, 5.0, and 10.0 mg) on exercise capacity, as well as several clinical measures of PAH. The current study (NCT00578786) was unblinded (by design) prior to completion. The ARIES studies were identical except for the dose groups assessed and the geographic locations where the studies were conducted. Both studies evaluated placebo and 5.0-mg AMB dose groups; however, AMB-320 (NCT00423748) also examined an AMB dose of 10.0 mg, while AMB-321 (NCT00423202) included an AMB dose of 2.5 mg. AMB-320/321-E was an optional study for subjects who had participated in AMB-320 (NCT00423748) or AMB-321 (NCT00423202) that allowed continued long-term treatment with AMB. ;
