Non-interventional Multi-center Study on Patients Under Routine Treatment of Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH) With Inhaled Iloprost Using I-Neb as a Device for Inhalation (COMPHI)

April 5, 2018 updated by: Bayer

Study to Assess the Compliance of Patients With Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension Treated With Inhaled Iloprost.

This pilot, non-interventional, company-sponsored, multi-center study documents observational data on patients under routine treatment of Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH) with inhaled iloprost (using I-Neb device for the inhalation).

The planned study recruitment time is 18 months. The maximum follow up period in this study will be 12 months.

The data will be collected from patients who have initiated the treatment mentioned above (inhaled iloprost using I-Neb device) since February 1st, 2013.

Frequency of visits and procedures will be performed under routine conditions. The primary objective of this study is to assess the compliance of patients with WHO/NYHA (World Health Organization/New York Heart Association) functional Class III Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension treated with Inhaled Iloprost in clinical practice, using the I-neb Insight tool.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

Patients Diagnosed with Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension, Functional Class NYHA/WHO III, for whom the treating physician has chosen to initiate the treatment with inhaled iloprost using I-Neb as the device for inhalation since 1st of February of 2013.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Adult patients (age ≥ 18years old), male or female
  • Diagnosis of Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension, Group I of the Dana Point Pulmonary Hypertension classification (Diagnosis made at the discretion of the attending investigator, including mPAP ≥ 25 mmHg at rest, as measured by right heart catheterization.)
  • The treating physician has chosen to initiate the treatment with inhaled iloprost with I-Neb device for the application, as described in the Summary of Product characteristics (SmPC).
  • WHO/NYHA functional class III
  • Willing to participate in the study (Informed Consent Sign)
  • Patients who received the first inhaled iloprost treatment with I-Neb from February 1st, 2013.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Any contraindication for the treatment with Ventavis as described in the Summary of Product characteristics (SmPC)
  • Patients are not to be enrolled if they were treated with inhaled iloprost with I-Neb or any other device for the application in the past, before the start of the observation period (February 1st, 2013)

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort

Group / Cohort

A group or subgroup of participants in an observational study that is assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.
Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Patients Diagnosed with Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension, Functional Class NYHA/WHO III, for whom was prescribed inhaled Iloprost.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Percentage of compliant patients
Time Frame: Up to 12 months
The compliance will be assessed by the mean daily number of Inhalations and mean daily dose of Ventavis at around months 6 and 12 for each patient (Data will be collected via the I-neb Insight). For this observational study, a patient is considered compliant if the mean daily number of inhalations and mean daily dose are within 80 to 120% of prescribed. Otherwise, the patient will be considered as non-compliant.
Up to 12 months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.

Primary Completion (Actual)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
