研究概览

简要总结

This is an observational, multicenter, single-day, Phase 2 study. This study will include a 14-day Screening Period and Study Day 1 clinic visit. Participants will be required to perform an activity to induce symptoms of PAH, and participants' severity of self-reported symptoms of PAH will be measured from pre-activity, immediately after the activity, and through the 30-minute recovery. Participants will be asked about their PAH symptoms using 3 PGI-S questions that address their overall PAH symptoms, shortness of breath, and physical fatigue.

详细描述

This is an observational, multicenter, single-day, Phase 2 study. This study will include a 14-day Screening Period and Study Day 1 clinic visit. Participants will be required to perform an activity to induce symptoms of PAH, and participants' severity of self-reported symptoms of PAH will be measured from pre-activity, immediately after the activity, and through the 30-minute recovery. Participants will be asked about their PAH symptoms using 3 Patient Global Impression of Severity (PGI-S) questions that address their overall PAH symptoms, shortness of breath, and physical fatigue.

PAH symptoms will be induced via the Incremental Shuttle Walk Test (ISWT). The ISWT used in this study required the participant to walk back and forth on a 10-meter course. The total number of shuttles completed by a participant during the Screening ISWT will be the maximum targeted for that participant during the remaining ISWTs in the study.

After Screening, participants will be assigned to 1 of 2 cohorts based on PAH medications as prescribed by their physician: Cohort A will include participants who are currently prescribed and using inhaled treprostinil for the treatment of PAH and Cohort B will include participants who are taking other PAH medications (instead of inhaled treprostinil).

The study also includes 2 periods. One period for participants in Cohort A (Treprostinil Users), included an ISWT initiated within 30 minutes of the previous dose (expected peak level) and the other period included an ISWT within 3 to 4 hours of the previous dose of inhaled treprostinil (expected trough level). Participants in Cohort B (Non-Treprostinil Users), an ISWT will be initiated approximately 4 hours after the morning dose of PAH medication (Period 1) and an ISWT initiated at least 1 hour following completion of the previous ISWT (Period 2). Participants will be provided at least a 1-hour period for rest between ISWTs (until participant feels they are rested enough to perform again at their baseline level) prior to Period 2 assessments.

入选标准

  • Participant voluntarily gives informed consent to participate in the study.
  • Males and females aged 18 years and above at the time of informed consent.
  • Established primary diagnosis of PAH that is either idiopathic or familial PAH (WHO Group 1), collagen vascular disease associated PAH, PAH associated with HIV infection, PAH induced by anorexigens/toxins, or PAH associated with repaired congenital systemic-to-pulmonary shunts (repaired ≥1 years).
  • Participant is deemed WHO Functional Class 1, 2, or
  • Participant has shortness of breath upon exertion (exhibits a ≥1-point change in Borg dyspnea score) as assessed by the ISWT and a minimum completion of 3 shuttles (30 meters) of the ISWT. Participant may have other symptoms as well.
  • Participant is on stable dose of all FDA-approved PAH treatments (exceptions are anticoagulants and diuretics) for at least 60 days prior to Screening.
  • In the opinion of the Investigator, the participant can communicate effectively with study personnel, and is considered reliable, willing, and likely to be cooperative with protocol requirements.

排除标准

  • The participant is known to be pregnant or nursing.
  • The participant has PAH related to any condition not covered under inclusion criteria, including, but not limited to, pulmonary venous hypertension, pulmonary venoocclusive disease, pulmonary capillary hemangiomatosis, chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension, or other conditions under WHO Group 2, 3, 4, and 5 classifications.
  • The participant has evidence of clinically significant left-sided heart disease (including, but not limited to, left ventricular ejection fraction <40%, left ventricular hypertrophy) or clinically significant cardiologic conditions, such as congestive heart failure, coronary artery disease, or valvular heart disease.
  • The participant has any form of congenital heart disease (repaired or unrepaired; other than a patent foramen ovale).
  • The participant has any ambulatory or orthopedic limitations that would interfere with the ability to perform the activity.
  • The participant has been hospitalized within 30 days of Screening.
  • Current use of prostacyclin analogs/agonists, except inhaled treprostinil, for the treatment of PAH.
  • Use of any other investigational drug/device, or participation in any investigational study with therapeutic intent within 30 days of Screening (concurrent participation in registry studies is allowed).
  • Any other clinically significant illness that, in the opinion of the Investigator, might put the participant at risk of harm during the study or might adversely affect the interpretation of the study data.

结局指标

主要结局

Change From Baseline in PGI-S Score in Cohort A Participants at Approximately 3-4 Hours of Previous Dose of Inhaled Treprostinil (the Expected Trough Level) on Day 1

时间窗: Baseline, Approximately 3-4 h of previous dose of inhaled treprostinil (the expected trough level) on Day 1

A global index that consists of 3 questions to which participants will rate the severity of 1) their PAH symptoms, 2) SOB, and 3) fatigue. The minimum and maximum range of scores for each of the 3 individual questions was 1-5, with severity scale choices of 1=Not present, 2=Mild, 3=Moderate, 4=Severe, and 5=Very Severe. A higher score indicated worse outcome. The Baseline is defined as the average respective severity rating measured at 15 minutes and 0 minute prior to the ISWT. In the case of a single, missing severity rating measured pre-ISWT, the other non-missing single severity rating would be used as baseline value. Only participants with both a measurement at baseline and at the given post-baseline visit are summarized. Change from Baseline = Post-Baseline value - Baseline value. Trough levels are the lowest concentrations of a drug in plasma.

Change From Baseline in PGI-S Scores in Cohort B Participants With an ISWT at Least 1 h Following Completion of Previous ISWT (Period 2) on Day 1

时间窗: Baseline, At least 1 h following completion of previous ISWT (Period 2) on Day 1

A global index that consists of 3 questions to which participants will rate the severity of 1) their PAH symptoms, 2) SOB, and 3) fatigue. The minimum and maximum range of scores for each of the 3 individual questions was 1-5, with severity scale choices of 1=Not present, 2=Mild, 3=Moderate, 4=Severe, and 5=Very Severe. A higher score indicated worse outcome. The Baseline is defined as the average respective severity rating measured at 15 minutes and 0 minute prior to the ISWT. In the case of a single, missing severity rating measured pre-ISWT, the other non-missing single severity rating would be used as baseline value. Only participants with both a measurement at baseline and at the given post-baseline visit are summarized. Change from Baseline = Post-Baseline value - Baseline value.

Change From Baseline in Patient Global Impression of Severity (PGI-S) Score in Cohort A Participants at Approximately 30 Minutes of Previous Dose of Inhaled Treprostinil (the Expected Peak Level) on Day 1

时间窗: Baseline, Approximately 30 m of previous dose of inhaled treprostinil (the expected peak level) on Day 1

A global index that consists of 3 questions to which participants will rate the severity of 1) their PAH symptoms, 2) shortness of breath (SOB), and 3) fatigue. The minimum and maximum range of scores for each of the 3 individual questions was 1-5, with severity scale choices of 1=Not present, 2=Mild, 3=Moderate, 4=Severe, and 5=Very Severe. A higher score indicated worse outcome. The Baseline is defined as the average respective severity rating measured at 15 minutes and 0 minute prior to the ISWT. In the case of a single, missing severity rating measured pre-ISWT, the other non-missing single severity rating would be used as baseline value. Only participants with both a measurement at baseline and at the given post-baseline visit are summarized. Change from Baseline = Post-Baseline value - Baseline value. Peak levels are the highest concentrations of a drug in plasma.

Change From Baseline in PGI-S Score in Cohort B Participants at Approximately 4 Hours After Morning Dose of Non-Treprostinil PAH Medication (Period 1) on Day 1

时间窗: Baseline, Approximately 4 h after morning dose of non-treprostinil PAH medication (Period 1) on Day 1

A global index that consists of 3 questions to which participants will rate the severity of 1) their PAH symptoms, 2) SOB, and 3) fatigue. The minimum and maximum range of scores for each of the 3 individual questions was 1-5, with severity scale choices of 1=Not present, 2=Mild, 3=Moderate, 4=Severe, and 5=Very Severe.
