BAY63-2521 - Long-term Extension Study in Patients With Chronic Thromboembolic Pulmonary Hypertension

Phase 3
Completed
Conditions
Pulmonary Hypertension
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT00910429
Lead Sponsor
Bayer
Brief Summary

Patients who have completed the 16 weeks treatment of the CHEST-1 trial (study number 11348) will be asked to participate in this long term extension study with BAY63-2521. The aim of the long term study is to collect additional information to evaluate the safety and tolerability of BAY63-2521. Patients will be treated with open label medication on their individual optimal dose between 0,5 mg - 2,5 mg tid.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Number of Participants With DeathFrom baseline to end of safety follow-up visit, up to 10 years (1 month more than End of study visit)

Analyses of deaths were based on the assessment of causal relationship to study medication. The safety follow-up visit was to be performed 30 days after the last dose of riociguat.

Number of Participants With Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAE)From administration of first dose of study medication up to 2 days after end of treatment with study medication, up to 10 years

Analyses of drug-related TEAEs were based on the assessment of causal relationship to study medication.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Percentage of Participants With Treatment-emergent High Laboratory Abnormalities in Clinical ChemistryFrom baseline to Termination visit, up to 10 years

Frequency of participants per treatment group only with a treatment-emergent shift in clinical chemistry parameters from normal or low at baseline to a high value at a timepoint after the start of treatment. A termination visit was only to be performed in the case of premature termination of study medication or if the sponsor announced the official end of the study.

Percentage of Participants With Treatment-emergent High Laboratory Abnormalities in Hematology and CoagulationFrom baseline to Termination visit, up to 10 years

Frequency of participants only with a treatment-emergent shift in hematology and coagulation parameters from normal or low at baseline to a high value at a timepoint after the start of treatment. A termination visit was only to be performed in the case of premature termination of study medication or if the sponsor announced the official end of the study.

Percentage of Participants With Treatment-emergent Low Laboratory Abnormalities in Hematology and CoagulationFrom baseline to Termination visit, up to 10 years

Frequency of participants only with a treatment-emergent shift in hematology and coagulation parameters from normal or high at baseline to a low value at a timepoint after the start of treatment. A termination visit was only to be performed in the case of premature termination of study medication or if the sponsor announced the official end of the study.

Change From Baseline of Hemoglobin in Hematology and CoagulationFrom baseline to Termination visit, up to 10 years

Hemoglobin is standard Hematology and coagulation parameter. A termination visit was only to be performed in the case of premature termination of study medication or if the sponsor announced the official end of the study.

Percentage of Participants With Treatment-emergent Low Laboratory Abnormalities in Clinical ChemistryFrom baseline to Termination visit, up to 10 years

Frequency of participants per treatment group only with a treatment-emergent shift in clinical chemistry parameters from normal or high at baseline to a low value at a timepoint after the start of treatment. A termination visit was only to be performed in the case of premature termination of study medication or if the sponsor announced the official end of the study.

Change From Baseline of Urate in Clinical ChemistryFrom baseline to Termination visit, up to 10 years

Urate is standard clinical chemistry parameter. A termination visit was only to be performed in the case of premature termination of study medication or if the sponsor announced the official end of the study.
