What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. To evaluate the safety, tolerability, and activity of inhalation therapy with NX1011 based on right heart catheterization (RHC) measures, pulse oximetry, and hemodynamic response

  2. To establish maximum tolerated dose (MTD) levels of NX1011 based on predefined criteria for dose-limiting toxicity (DLT)

  3. To qualify the delivery apparatus

  4. To generate descriptive data on the concentration-response relationship in order to choose a range of concentrations (e.g., low, medium, high) for the follow-up, fixed-dose, placebo-controlled study

  5. To summarize correlation data between echocardiography and RHC measures with respect to activity and methemoglobin levels documented via the visible light spectroscopy

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. To summarize correlation data between echocardiography and RHC measures with respect to activity and methemoglobin levels documented via the visible light spectroscopy

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing NX1011 in people with Pulmonary Hypertension, run by NITROX, LLC at 6 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 8 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 Aug 2007. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

To evaluate the safety, tolerability, and activity of inhalation therapy with NX1011 based on right heart catheterization (RHC) measures, pulse oximetry, and hemodynamic response. The study lists 5 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 30 Aug 2007.
