A Prospective, Multicenter, Single-arm, Open-label, Phase 4 Study to Evaluate the Effects of Macitentan on Right vEntricular Remodeling in Pulmonary ArterIal hypeRtension Assessed by Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging
In Brief
A Phase 4 clinical trial evaluating Macitentan for Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension. Completed, enrolled 89 participants across 41 sites in 12 countries.
Detailed Summary
The study evaluates the effect of macitentan on right ventricular and hemodynamic properties in patients with symptomatic pulmonary arterial hypertension. Patients are treated with macitentan for 1 year. Patients undergo right heart catheterization (RHC) at baseline and Week 26. They also undergo cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) at baseline, Week 26 and Week 52. Safety is monitored throughout the study. The study has three stub-studies. Each patient can participate in no sub-study or in one sub-study. The sub-studies are: (1) metabolism sub-study (with PET-MR scans); (2) biopsy sub-study (biopsies taken during the RHC); (3) Echo sub-study.
