About this study

Official title: Clinical and Hematologic Risk Factors of Right Ventricular Dysfunction and Pulmonary Hypertension in Myeloproliferative Neoplasms

This cross-sectional study aims to determine the prevalence of pulmonary hypertension and right ventricular dysfunction in patients with myeloproliferative neoplasms and to identify associated clinical and hematologic factors.

Read the detailed description

Myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) are associated with an increased risk of pulmonary hypertension and right ventricular dysfunction. This observational study will include adults with confirmed polycythemia vera, essential thrombocythemia, or primary myelofibrosis.

All participants will undergo clinical assessment, laboratory evaluation, and echocardiography to assess pulmonary artery systolic pressure and right ventricular systolic function (TAPSE, FAC, and tissue Doppler S').

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Single cohort: Patients with myeloproliferative neoplasmsAdult patients with myeloproliferative neoplasms who will undergo clinical, laboratory, and echocardiographic assessment for pulmonary hypertension and right ventricular dysfunction.

What is being measured

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

  1. Prevalence of Pulmonary Hypertension in MPN Patients

    PASP measured by echocardiography using TR velocity. Pulmonary hypertension defined as PASP greater than 35 mmHg or TR velocity greater than 2.8 m/s. Prevalence will be calculated.

    Measured: Baseline

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Prevalence of right ventricular dysfunction

    Proportion of patients with right ventricular dysfunction defined by TAPSE <17 mm, RV fractional area change <35%, or tissue Doppler S' <9.5 cm/s

    Measured: Baseline

  2. Pulmonary artery systolic pressure

    Mean estimated pulmonary artery systolic pressure (mmHg) measured by echocardiography

    Measured: Baseline

  3. Tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE)

    Mean TAPSE value (mm) measured by echocardiography.

    Measured: Baseline

  4. Right ventricular fractional area change

    Mean right ventricular fractional area change (%) measured by echocardiography.

    Measured: Baseline

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Myeloproliferative Neoplasm and Right Ventricular Dysfunction, run by Assiut University.

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 4 inclusion and 4 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Sep 2026. 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. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Esraa M Ahmed, Resident (+20 10 99071931, esraamedhat449@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Prevalence of Pulmonary Hypertension in MPN Patients (time frame: Baseline). 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 22 Sep 2026.
