  • Ages 18 to 80 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Diagnosis of PAH as classified by idiopathic, heritable, drug and toxin- induced, congenital heart disease or associated with connective tissue disease (i.e., WHO Group 1)
  • Clinical diagnosis of PAH confirmed by RHC at any time prior to Visit 1
  • WHO functional status of Class II-IV at Visit 1
  • Two 6MWD test measurements between 100 and 450 meters with a relative difference of ≤15%. The baseline 6MWD test must be performed at Visit 2 before randomization.
  • Have a qualifying RHC performed between Visit 1 and Visit 2
  • On stable dose(s) of guideline-directed medical therapy for PAH (endothelin receptor antagonists, phosphodiesterase type-5 (PDE-5) inhibitors, soluble guanylate cyclase stimulators and prostacyclin pathway analogs) for at least 90 days prior to the qualifying RHC

Who cannot join

  • PAH associated with portal hypertension, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), schistosomiasis or sickle cell disease as well as participants with pulmonary parenchymal disease or thromboembolic disease
  • Known significant left heart disease including: left ventricular dysfunction (i.e., left ventricular ejection fraction <35%); hemodynamically compromising, symptomatic, or severe aortic stenosis, aortic regurgitation, mitral stenosis, mitral regurgitation

  • Moderate to severe obstructive lung disease defined as forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) <55% of predicted value
  • Moderate to severe restrictive lung disease defined as total lung capacity (TLC) <60% of predicted value
  • Acute decompensated heart failure or hospital admission for worsening PAH symptoms within 30 days prior to the qualifying RHC

About this study

Official title: A Phase 2, Multicenter, Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of JTT-251 Administered for 24 Weeks to Participants With Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (RELIEF-PAH)

Study to evaluate the efficacy, safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of JTT-251 administered for 24 weeks in participants with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH)

Read the detailed description

This is a study to evaluate the efficacy, safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of JTT-251 administered for 24 weeks in participants with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Participants completing this study (RELIEF-PAH) will be eligible to enroll in an open-label extension study (RELIEF-PAH OLE) to evaluate the long-term efficacy, safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of JTT-251 in participants with PAH.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in six-minute walk distance (6MWD) compared to baseline

    Measured: 24 Weeks

  2. Change in World Health Organization (WHO) functional classification compared to baseline

    Measured: 24 Weeks

  3. Change in pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) compared to baseline

    Assessed by right heart catheterization (RHC)

    Measured: 4, 12, 24 and 28 Weeks

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Number of adverse events

    Measured: 28 Weeks

  2. JTT-251 trough plasma concentrations

    Measured: 4, 12 and 24 Weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing JTT-251 in people with Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension, run by Shionogi Inc..

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 6 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 3 May 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

Change in six-minute walk distance (6MWD) compared to baseline (time frame: 24 Weeks). 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 May 2019.
