About this study

Official title: A Single-arm, Open-label, Extension Study to Evaluate the Long-term Safety of Udenafil in Patient With Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension(PAH)

This study evaluates the long-term safety of Udenafil in Patient with Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension(PAH). All the patients will receive Udenafil for 1-year(48-weeks).

Read the detailed description

Pulmonary arterial Hypertension is characterized by a progressive incerease in pulmonary vascular resistance(PVR) leading to right ventricualar failure.

Udenafil inhibits PDE 5, an enzyme that metabolizes cGMP, enhancing the cGMP mediated relaxation and growth inhibition of vascular smooth muscle cells, including those in the lung.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing Udenafil in people with Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension, run by Dong-A ST Co., Ltd. at 1 site in South Korea.

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 1 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 18 Apr 2016. 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 South Korea. 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 combined 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.

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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Safety (Adverse Events, Physical Examination, Vital Sign, Electrocardiography, Laboratory test, etc) (time frame: during 48-weeks). 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 18 Apr 2016.
