What is being measured

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

  1. To Assess the Pharmacokinetics (Mean AM Dose) in Subjects During Twice Daily (BID) Dosing (up to 14 Days Prior to Transitioning to Three Times Daily [TID] Dosing Regimen at PK Visit 1) and up to 35 Days After Transitioning to TID Dosing (at PK Visit 2).

    The PK sampling occurred over a 12-hour period in subjects during BID dosing (PK Visit 1) and during TID dosing (PK Visit 2). Prior to each PK sampling day, subjects must have been receiving a stable dose for at least 5 days.

    Measured: Up to 14 days prior to transitioning to TID dosing regimen (PK Visit 1) and up to 35 days after transitioning to TID dosing regiment (PK Visit 2)

  2. To Assess the Pharmacokinetics (Cmax, Cmin) in Subjects During BID Dosing (up to 14 Days Prior to Transitioning to TID Dosing Regimen at PK Visit 1) and up to 35 Days After Transitioning to TID Dosing Regiment (PK Visit 2)

    The PK sampling occurred over a 12-hour period in subjects during BID dosing (PK Visit 1) and during TID dosing (PK Visit 2). Prior to each PK sampling day, subjects must have been receiving a stable dose for at least 5 days.

    Measured: Up to 14 days prior to transitioning to TID dosing regimen (PK Visit 1) and up to 35 days after transitioning to TID dosing regiment (PK Visit 2)

  3. To Assess the Pharmacokinetics (AUClast) in Subjects During Twice Daily (BID) Dosing (up to 14 Days Prior to Transitioning to Three Times Daily [TID] Dosing Regimen at PK Visit 1) and up to 35 Days After Transitioning to TID Dosing (at PK Visit 2).

    The PK sampling occurred over a 12-hour period in subjects during BID dosing (PK Visit 1) and during TID dosing (PK Visit 2). Prior to each PK sampling day, subjects must have been receiving a stable dose for at least 5 days.

    Measured: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 48, 72, 96 hours post-dose at up to 14 days prior to transitioning to TID dosing regimen (PK Visit 1) and at up to 35 days after transitioning to TID dosing regiment (PK Visit 2)

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. To Assess 6-minute Walk Distance for Both Groups (BID and TID) 3 to 6 Hours Post-morning Dose.

    The 6-minute walk test (6MWT) was conducted at PK Visits 1 and 2, and was performed between hours 3 to 6 post-morning dose to correlate with the predicted peak plasma concentration of oral treprostinil.

    Measured: The 6MWT was conducted during BID dosing PK collection (up to 14 days prior to transitioning to TID dosing regimen [PK Visit 1]) and during TID dosing PK collection (up to 35 days after transitioning to TID dosing regimen [PK Visit 2]).

  2. To Compare the Adverse Event (AE) Profile of BID Versus TID Dosing.

    AE diaries including 8 therapy-specific terms were collected during both BID and TID dosing to allow for comparison of events from both regimens. The therapy-specific events included: diarrhea, extremity pain, flushing, headache, hypotension, jaw pain, nausea, and vomiting.

    Measured: The AEs were recorded for up to 50 days.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing UT-15C SR and treprostinil diethanolamine in people with Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension, run by United Therapeutics at 1 site 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 1 inclusion and 7 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Jan 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 27 Oct 2016). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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 Assess the Pharmacokinetics (Mean AM Dose) in Subjects During Twice Daily (BID) Dosing (up to 14 Days Prior to Transitioning to Three Times Daily [TID] Dosing Regimen at PK Visit 1) and up to 35 Days After Transitioning to TID Dosing (at PK Visit 2). (time frame: Up to 14 days prior to transitioning to TID dosing regimen (PK Visit 1) and up to 35 days after transitioning to TID dosing regiment (PK Visit 2)). The study lists 3 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 3 Jan 2024.
