4 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a disorder of elevated pulmonary vascular resistance characterized by progressive remodeling and obliteration of vessels of the distal pulmonary circulation. Outcomes in PAH could be improved with earlier diagnosis, and with the early deployment of therapies before irreversible changes have occurred. This study tests the sensitivity of positron emission tomography (PET)-CT scanning with \[89Zr\]-bevacizumab, a radioisotope-conjugated anti-VEGF antibody for detecting pulmonary vascular remodeling in PAH disease. This test could enable non-invasive diagnosis early in the course of the disease, and potentially improve outcomes in PAH,
Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging has emerged as a potential valuable test for the early detection of Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension. A number of reports have provided some preliminary evidence that Pulmonary Artery (PA) stiffness may be accurately detected by imaging of the pulmonary artery in order to measure PA stiffness. In addition, cardiac MRI could play provide early and effective treatment for Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH).
The purpose of this study is to establish single-dose tolerability of inhaled treprostinil sodium in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) patients with pulmonary hypertension, and to explore the acute hemodynamic effects over a range of tolerable doses. The safety and pharmacodynamic information obtained from this study will inform the design and conduct of future studies in inhaled treprostinil sodium in this population.
Study ROR-PH-302, ADVANCE CAPACITY, is designed to evaluate the effects of ralinepag therapy on exercise capacity as assessed by change in peak oxygen consumption (VO2) derived from cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) after 28 weeks of treatment
