Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages Any age
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child, Adult, Older adult

Study population: Source population of the study are patients with Pulmonary arterial hypertension(PAH) and Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH). Patients with this rare condition are mostly diagnosed and managed at specialist centers. This includes initiation or any change of Pulmonary Hypertension (PH) therapy. The participation of these specialized centers in the study is going to ensure the representativeness of the study population. In order to reduce selection bias physicians will be asked to include all eligible patients.

Who may be able to join

  • Female and male adult patients diagnosed with PAH or inoperable/recurrent/persistent CTEPH who have been switched from a PH treatment (i.e. Endothelin Receptor Antagonist(ERAs), Phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitor(PDE5i) or Prostacyclin Analog (PCA) to Adempas

Who cannot join

  • Patients participating in an investigational program with interventions outside of routine clinical practice
  • Patients who have not switched their therapy from an Endothelin Receptor Antagonist (ERA) or Prostacyclin Analog (PCA) but received Adempas purely as an add-on therapy

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.

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?

Starting Dose (time frame: Up to a total of 8 weeks of titration period). 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?
