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.
Group A will be training group and group B will be control group. Deep breathing exercises will be done as baseline treatment in both groups. Both groups will be assessed with Modified Borg scale, 6-PBRT and Fatigue severity scale at the baseline. The control group patients will perform functional active alternating movements for the upper limbs at home involving three sets with 10 repetitions and a rest interval between 1- and 2-minute. Intervention will be for 3 times a week or 6 weeks. The treatment group patients will perform upper extremity aerobic exercises by using an arm ergometer under the supervision of a physiotherapist. Training intensity will adjust according to 50 80 % of max HR or intensity of dyspnea to 4 points on modified Borg scale (MBS) for at least 15 45 min, 3 times/week over 6 weeks.
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.
The purpose of this study is to measure the long-term safety and efficacy profile of LTP001 in participants with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). The study offers participants who had completed the CLTP001A12201 double-blind parent study in PAH an opportunity to receive LTP001 (whether they were on LTP001 or not). Unblinding of the treatment received in CLTP001A12201 is generally not needed, but can occur on request by the investigator.
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).
