Filter by:This is a multi-center, open-label study for eligible participants who were actively participating in the BPS-314d-MR-PAH-302 double-blind study (NCT01908699) at the time the study was concluded. This open-label extension (OLE) study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of long-term treatment with esuberaprost sodium tablets (Beraprost Sodium 314d Modified Release tablets).
This is a multi-center, randomized, double-blind, controlled, Phase 2 study to assess the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of pemziviptadil (PB1046) at the optimally titrated dose after 16 weeks of treatment. Subjects will be randomized in a 2:1 ratio to one of two parallel dose groups: a) high-dose group where PB1046 will be up-titrated from a 0.2 mg/kg minimally effective starting dose to a target high dose level of at least 1.2 mg/kg or higher to a maximally tolerated dose (MTD), or b) a low-dose group that will start at 0.2 mg/kg and remain at this minimally effective dose (MED) level with sham up-titration. The total treatment period will be comprised of 2 phases: 1) an initial 10 week dose titration phase in which weekly doses of PB1046 will be titrated (or sham titrated) up to a target dose level of at least 1.2 mg/kg or higher to the MTD, and 2) a maintenance of treatment phase that begins when subjects reach week 11 and continues for 6 weeks during which no further up-titration should occur.
The main OBJECTIVE of this proposal is to extend our preclinical findings on the role of DNA damage and poly(ADP-ribose) polymerases (PARP) inhibition as a therapy for a devastating disease, pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), to early-phase clinical trials. We, and others, have published strong evidence that DNA damage accounts for disease progression in PAH and showed that PARP1 inhibition can reverse PAH in several animal models1. Interestingly, PARP1 inhibition is also cardioprotective. Olaparib, an orally available PARP1 inhibitor, can reverse cancer growth in animals and humans with a good safety profile, and is now approved for the treatment of ovarian cancer in Canada, Europe and the USA. The time is thus right to translate our findings in human PAH. The industry-sponsored clinical research on PARP1 inhibitor is currently entirely cancer-oriented. Nonetheless, AstraZeneca Canada accepted to support an early phase clinical trial through in-kind contribution, but the support from foundations and federal agencies is critical to catalyze early-stage development of PARP1 inhibitors for other indications, especially for orphan diseases. A CIHR Project Scheme grant will thus be submitted on September 15 2017, proposing a Phase 1, followed by a Phase 2 trial that will be conducted in recognized PAH programs throughout Canada. At this stage, however, we propose a pilot study to assess the feasibility of the proposed trials in the PAH population. The overall HYPOTHESIS is that PARP1 inhibition with olaparib is a safe and effective therapy for PAH. The primary objective of the study is to confirm feasibility, to support the safety of using olaparib in PAH patients, and precise the sample size of the coming Phase 1B trial. The feasibility of the comprehensive patient phenotyping that will be proposed within the phase 1B trial will thus be assessed, in addition to adverse events and efficacy signals. ***OPTION pilot trial was merged with the new OPTION multicenter trial (NCT03782818)***
A double-blinded, placebo-controlled study of Dimethyl fumarate (DMF) in 34 Systemic Sclerosis-Pulmonary Hypertension (SSc-PAH) patients. The study will determine safety and the primary outcome variability for DMF in treating SSc-PAH; the primary outcome of clinical efficacy in this pilot trial will be improvement in 6-minute walk distance (6MWD).
The purpose of the study is to document the effect of first line dual oral combination therapy with macitentan 10mg and tadalafil 40mg on pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) in treatment-naïve patients with newly diagnosed pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH).
This is a long-term open-label safety extension to the Phase 2a study of inhaled QCC374 in adult patients with PAH. This study provides the patients who completed the QCC374X2201 study with the option to continue receiving QCC374. The study will monitor the long-term safety, tolerability and efficacy of QCC374 in patients with PAH.
This was a non-confirmatory, randomized, placebo controlled, subject and investigator blinded study of QCC374 in PAH subjects. The study was planned to have 2 Parts: Part 1, an initial safety cohort with a 0.03 mg bid starting dose, and Part 2, a larger cohort with a 0.06 mg bid starting dose. However, due to early study termination following Part 1, Part 2 was not completed. Both study parts were comprised of four phases: a screening period for up to 28 days, a titration period of 2 weeks, a stable dose period of 14 weeks and safety follow-up period for 28 days. At the end of the treatment period of 16 weeks, eligible patients were given the option to participate in a separate long-term extension study (CQCC374X2201E1 (NCT02939599)), where all patients were treated with an individual optimal dose of QCC374.
In this study positron emission tomography (PET/CT) imaging will be used to evaluate evaluation of estrogen receptor heterogeneity and functionality in Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH) using the investigational radiotracer [18F]fluoroestradiol (FES).
The purpose of this study is to learn more about the safety and effects of switching treatments from bosentan (Tracleer) or macientan (Opsumit) to ambrisentan (Letairis) over 24 weeks in subjects with Connective Tissue Disease associated Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (CTD-PAH).
Ubenimex is being developed for the treatment of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) (World Health Organization [WHO] Group 1) to improve exercise capacity and delay clinical worsening. This study is a Phase 2, open-label, extension study to evaluate long-term safety and efficacy of ubenimex in patients with PAH (WHO Group 1) who complete Study EIG-UBX-001.
