What is being measured

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

  1. The clinical functional parameters of CTEPH patients will be assessed by evaluating the change in measures of 6MWD between initial and final visit

    6MWD (6 Minutes Walking Distance)

    Measured: Up to 3 years

  2. The clinical functional parameters of CTEPH patients will be assessed by evaluating the change in measures of WHO Functional Class between initial and final visit

    WHO Functional class (World Health Organization Functional Class)

    Measured: Up to 3 years

  3. The haemodynamics parameters of CTEPH patients will be assessed by evaluating the change in measures of PVR between initial and final visit

    PVR (Pulmonary Vascular Resistance)

    Measured: Up to 3 years

  4. The haemodynamics parameters of CTEPH patients will be assessed by evaluating the change in measures of Cardiac Index (CI) between initial and final visit

    CI (Cardiac Index)

    Measured: Up to 3 years

  5. The haemodynamics parameters of CTEPH patients will be assessed by evaluating the change in measures of mPAP between initial and final visit

    mPAP (mean Pulmonary Arterial Pressure)

    Measured: Up to 3 years

Secondary outcomes (13)
  1. Eligibility for PEA

    At inclusion, information will be collected for each patient regarding their eligibility for PEA. If eligible, details about the PEA will be recorded; if not eligible, further information will be collected to understand why the patient was not eligible.

    Measured: Up to 3 years

  2. Rate of recurrent to persistent subtypes after Pulmonary Endarterectomy

    Not yet assessable/Recurrent/Residual

    Measured: Up to 3 years

  3. Time span between onset of symptoms and CTEPH diagnosis

    Measured: Up to 3 years

  4. Usage of diagnostic tools of CTEPH patients (Y/N)

    Measured: Up to 3 years

  5. Rate of Pulmonary Hypertension treatments prior to CTEPH diagnosis, at the time of CTEPH diagnosis and at the time of first visit

    Measured: Up to 3 years

  6. Treatment duration with Pulmonary Hypertension treatments prior to CTEPH diagnosis, at the time of CTEPH diagnosis and at the time of first visit

    Measured: Up to 3 years

  7. Changes in CTEPH treatment during the study period

    Measured: Up to 3 years

  8. Number of patients eligible for Pulmonary endarterectomy

    Measured: Up to 3 years

  9. NT-proBNP (N-terminal Propeptide Brain Natriuretic Peptide) levels

    Measured: Up to 3 years

  10. Mortality due to CTEPH and CTEPH related complications

    Measured: Up to 3 years

  11. Number of healthcare professional visits due to CTEPH and CTEPH related complications

    Measured: Up to 3 years

  12. The total number of days of hospitalization due to CTEPH and CTEPH related complications

    Measured: Up to 3 years

  13. Number of patients eligible for Balloon Pulmonary Angioplasty

    Measured: Up to 3 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hypertension, Pulmonary, run by Bayer at 6 sites in 6 countries.

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 10 inclusion and 2 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 25 Aug 2021. 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 Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Lebanon, Russia, Saudi Arabia and 1 more country. 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.

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?

The clinical functional parameters of CTEPH patients will be assessed by evaluating the change in measures of 6MWD between initial and final visit (time frame: Up to 3 years). 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02637050, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 25 Aug 2021.
