简要总结
The study evaluates the effect of macitentan on right ventricular and hemodynamic properties in patients with symptomatic pulmonary arterial hypertension. Patients are treated with macitentan for 1 year. Patients undergo right heart catheterization (RHC) at baseline and Week 26. They also undergo cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) at baseline, Week 26 and Week 52. Safety is monitored throughout the study. The study has three stub-studies. Each patient can participate in no sub-study or in one sub-study. The sub-studies are: (1) metabolism sub-study (with PET-MR scans); (2) biopsy sub-study (biopsies taken during the RHC); (3) Echo sub-study.

研究组 & 干预措施
Macitentan
All patients take open-label macitentan 10mg o.d.
干预措施: Macitentan (Drug)
结局指标
主要结局
Change From Baseline in Right Ventricular Stroke Volume (RVSV) to Week 26
时间窗: Baseline and Week 26
Change from baseline in RVSV assessed by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) from pulmonary artery flow was reported at Week 26. Primary analysis were based on interim results as pre-planned and the primary outcome measures data table reported is finalized as is.
Ratio of Week 26 to Baseline Pulmonary Vascular Resistance (PVR)
时间窗: Baseline and Week 26
Ratio of Week 26 to baseline PVR as assessed by RHC was reported. PVR represents the resistance against which the right ventricle needs to pump. PVR is determined by right heart catheterization (RHC). PVR was calculated as 80\*(Mean pulmonary arterial pressure \[mPAP\] -\[Pulmonary capillary wedge pressure {PCWP} or Left ventricular end diastolic pressure {LVEDP} if PCWP not available/cardiac output \[CO\]). Primary analysis were based on interim results as pre-planned and the primary outcome measures data table reported is finalized as is.
