  • 3.Exercise induced elevated mPAP-values >30 mmHg, (PAWP <18 mmHg; TPG =15 mmHg, as defined in Saggar et al. (2012)) without left heart or severe lung disease or systemic arterial hypertension
  • 4.Adult patients having completed his/her 18th birthday
  • 5.Patients with definite diagnosis of Systemic Sclerosis using the scleroderma criteria of the American Rheumatism Association
  • 6.SSc - disease duration >3 years
  • 7.Able to understand and willing to sign the Informed Consent Form
  • 8.Negative pregnancy test at the start of the trial and appropriate contraception throughout the study for women with child-bearing potential.
  • Are the trial subjects under 18? no
  • Number of subjects for this age range:
  • F.1.2 Adults (18-64 years) yes

排除标准

  • 1.Any connective tissue diseases (CTD) other than SSc
  • 2.Pulmonary hypertension (PH) confirmed by right heart catheter (RHC) before enrolment, i.e. mPAP =25 mmHg at rest
  • 3.Patients presenting normal mPAP values, i.e. mPAP<21 mmHg at rest, and mPAP =30 mmHg during exercise, and/or PAWP =15 mmHg at rest or =18 mmHg during exercise
  • 4.Ongoing or a history of >2 weeks of continued use of therapies that are considered definitive PH treatment: endothelin receptor antagonists (ERA; e.g. bosentan, ambrisentan), phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitors (PDE5; e.g. sildenafil, tadalafil, vardenafil), and prostanoids (e.g. epoprostenol, treprostinil, iloprost, beraprost) and soluble guanylate cyclase stimulator (e.g. Riociguat). Intermittent use of PDE5 inhibitors for male erectile dysfunction is permitted.
  • 5.Except for diuretics and corticosteroids medical treatment should not be expected to change 4 weeks prior inclusion into the study and during the entire 12-week study period.
  • 6.Known intolerance to ambrisentan or one of its excipients
  • 7.Clinically significant anemia (hemoglobin concentration of less than 75% of the lower limit of normal, LLN)
  • 8.Forced vital capacity (FVC) <60%, forced expiratory volume in first second (FEV1) <65%
  • 9.Severe interstitial lung disease, idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis
  • 10.Renal insufficiency (glomerular filtration rate [GFR] <60 mL/min/1.73m2 at least for the last 3 months before inclusion)
  • 11.Baseline values of hepatic aminotransferases (ALT and/or AST) >3 x upper limit of normal (ULN)
  • 12.Systolic blood pressure <85 mmHg;
  • 13.evidence of inadequately treated blood pressure >160/90 mmHg and/or blood pressure during exercise >220/120 mmHg
  • 14.Patients referred with clinically significant overt heart failure
  • 15.Clinically significant fluid retention
  • 16.Previous evidence or diagnosis of clinically relevant left heart disease, i.e. at least one of the following: Previous echocardiography with estimated left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction <50%, previous history of cardiogenic pulmonary edema, increased size of left atrium (>50 mm)
  • 17.Known significant diastolic dysfunction associated with clinical heart failure
  • 18.Known coronary disease or significant valvular heart disease
  • 19.Known congenital heart defects such as single ventricle, transposition, Eisenmenger
  • 20.Known hypertrophic cardiomyopathy or left ventricular hypertrophy (interventricular septum thickness (IVS) or posterior wall thickness (PWD) >1.2 cm)
  • 21.Participation in any clinical drug trial within 4 weeks prior to screening of this study and/or who is scheduled to receive another investigational medicinal product (IMP) during the course of this study
  • 22.Pregnancy or lactation
