A Study Providing Treatment Access in Participants With Pulmonary Hypertension Completing a Parent Study and Having no Other Option

Phase 3
Recruiting
Conditions
Hypertension, Pulmonary
Interventions
Drug: Macitentan/Tadalafil FDC
Registration Number
NCT05179876
Lead Sponsor
Actelion
Brief Summary

The purpose of the study is to enable participants with pulmonary hypertension (PH) currently treated with study intervention(s) in a clinical study (parent studies \[NCT03422328, NCT03904693,NCT04565990, NCT02932410, NCT03492177, and NCT04175600\]), to continue to benefit from the intervention after closure of the parent study in case they have no alternative means of access to the study intervention. This study will allow assessment of the long-term safety of each study intervention.

GroupInterventionDescription
MacitentanMacitentanParticipants who have completed a parent study, benefit from their study intervention maintenance and have no adequate alternative local treatment option will be enrolled in this study and will continue to receive study drug macitentan orally during the course of the study. For adult participants study visits will be scheduled every 6 months and for pediatric participants study visits will be scheduled every 3 months. The study includes on-site visits to collect efficacy and safety information until participant discontinuation/withdrawal, or the respective study intervention is made commercially available in the country/territory or an equivalent approved therapy becomes available, or the sponsor decides to terminate the study prematurely.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Frequency of Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)Baseline until End of Study (EOS) (up to 84 months)

An adverse event (AE) is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant administered a pharmaceutical (investigational or non-investigational) product. An AE does not necessarily have a causal relationship with the intervention. TEAEs are defined as a treatment-emergent AE is any AE temporally associated with the use of study treatment (from start of treatment in the PLATYPUS protocol until 30 days after study treatment discontinuation) whether or not considered by the investigator as related to study treatment.

Frequency of TEAEs Leading to DiscontinuationBaseline until EOS (up to 84 months)

Frequency of TEAEs leading to discontinuation of study intervention will be reported. An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant administered a pharmaceutical (investigational or non-investigational) product. An AE does not necessarily have a causal relationship with the intervention. TEAEs are defined as a treatment-emergent AE is any AE temporally associated with the use of study treatment (from start of treatment in the PLATYPUS protocol until 30 days after study treatment discontinuation) whether or not considered by the investigator as related to study treatment.

Frequency of Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)Baseline until EOS (up to 84 months)

SAE is any untoward medical occurrence that at any dose results in death, is life-threatening, requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, is a congenital anomaly/birth defect, is a suspected transmission of any infectious agent via a medicinal product and is medically important.

Frequency of DeathsBaseline until EOS (up to 84 months)

Frequency of deaths will be reported.
