Study Providing Monotherapy (Sitaxsentan) And Combination Therapy (Sitaxsentan+Sildenafil) To Subjects With Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH) To Assess Long-Term Safety

September 26, 2018 updated by: Pfizer

A Phase 3, Multi-Center, Open Label Study To Evaluate The Long-Term Safety Of Monotherapy Sitaxsentan Sodium And Combination Therapy With Sitaxsentan Sodium And Sildenafil Citrate In Subjects With Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension

As sitaxsentan is the agent most highly selective for ETA (Endothelin Type A (receptor)), and does not significantly impact sildenafil pharmacokinetics the combination of most promise for pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) therapy is these two oral drugs administered in combination.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Overall Survival
Time Frame: Baseline and every 12 weeks up to Week 18
Overall survival is the duration from first dose to death. For participants who are lost to follow-up, survival was censored at the last date of follow-up.
Baseline and every 12 weeks up to Week 18

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change From Baseline in 6 Minute Walk Distance at Weeks 12 and 24
Time Frame: Baseline, Weeks 12 up to Early Termination (ET) (up to Week 18)
The walk distance was the total distance walked during the 6-minute test. Change is distance walked at week x minus distance walked at baseline.
Baseline, Weeks 12 up to Early Termination (ET) (up to Week 18)
Number of Participants in Each World Health Organization (WHO) Functional Class of Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH)
Time Frame: Baseline, Week 12 and ET (up to Week 18)
The WHO functional classes of PAH range from Class 1 (no limitation in physical activity) to Class IV (can not perform a physical activity without any symptoms).
Baseline, Week 12 and ET (up to Week 18)
