Completed
Conditions
Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension
Registration Number
NCT03197688
Lead Sponsor
Actelion
Brief Summary

The Opsumit Users registry (OPUS; NCT02126943) was developed to characterize the safety profile of Opsumit and to describe clinical characteristics and outcomes of patients newly treated with Opsumit in the post-marketing setting. It is expected that the recruitment target of the OPUS registry cannot be achieved within the planned time period (5000 Opsumit new users by October 2018). The OrPHeUS study is designed to supplement the OPUS registry with retrospectively identified first-time Opsumit users in order to achieve the desired sample size.
