Filter by:To study the effect of relocation from 2840m (Quito) to sea level (Pedernales) in patients with pulmonary vascular diseases (PVD) defined as pulmonary arterial hypertension or chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (PH) who permanently live >2500m on sleep disordered breathing
This is a Phase 2, single-center, randomized placebo controlled trial of valsartan (an angiotensin receptor blocker) in adults with pulmonary arterial hypertension. The study will evaluate the safety and clinical efficacy of a 24-week course of valsartan.
To determine whether changes in endothelial cell dysfunction are associated with changes in total pulmonary resistance in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension
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.
The investigators aim to study the effect of SOT in participants with pulmonary vascular diseases (PVD) defined as pulmonary arterial hypertension or chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (PH) who permanently live >2500m on 6-minute walk distance (6MWD) assessed at 2840m.
To study the effect of relocation from 2840m (Quito) to sea level (Pedernales) in patients with pulmonary vascular diseases (PVD) defined as pulmonary arterial hypertension or chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (PH) who permanently live >2500m on 6-minute walk distance (6MWD)
Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is associated with worsening breathlessness and exercise capacity, right-heart failure, and adverse outcomes including increased mortality. Moreover, PH disease progression can be rapid; pharmaceutical intervention in early-stage Pulmonary Hypertension (PH) can improve symptoms and functional capacity, and delayed diagnosis and treatment of Pulmonary Hypertension (PH) likely reduces survival.
Study KER-012-A201 is Phase 2, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study to determine the efficacy and safety of KER-012 compared to Placebo in adults with PAH (WHO Group 1 PH) on stable background PAH therapy. The study is divided into the Screening Period, Treatment Period, Extension Period, and Follow-Up Period.
The investigators are doing this research study to compare whole body aerobic training with isolated leg training (with weights) and its impact on effectiveness in symptoms and quality of life in patients with Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH).
Background: A number of diseases can cause a type of lung injury called pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Most people who develop PAH do not survive more than a few years. A new study drug (ZMA001) may help. ZMA001 is a monoclonal antibody. This type of drug consists of proteins, made in a facility, that are very similar to proteins in a human body. But before giving ZMA001 to people sick with PAH, researchers want to find out how the drug affects healthy people. Objective: To test a drug (ZMA001) in healthy volunteers. Eligibility: Healthy adults aged 18 to 60 years. Design: Participants will be screened. They will have a physical exam with blood tests. They will have a urine test for drug use. They will have a test of their heart function. Participants will come to the clinic for 1 inpatient visit of up to 48 hours. ZMA001 is a liquid administered through a tube attached to a needle inserted into a vein in the arm. Participants will receive this drug only once, during their inpatient stay. Some participants will receive the drug; others will receive a placebo. A placebo is a treatment that looks just like the real drug but contains no medicine. Participants will not know which treatment they are getting. After a screening visit, participants will have 1 inpatient visit and up to 6 outpatient visits over 16 weeks after receiving the treatment. Blood draws and other tests will be repeated. Each outpatient visit is approximately 2 hours long. This study is the first time ZMA001 will be administered to people.
