December 12, 2018 updated by: United Therapeutics

A Multicenter, Open-Label, 24-Week, Uncontrolled Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, and Pharmacokinetics of Oral Treprostinil Extended Release Tablets Following Transition From Remodulin or Inhaled Prostacyclin Therapy or as Add-on to Current PAH Therapy in De Novo Prostacyclin Pediatric Subjects Aged 7 to 17 Years With Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension

This was a multi-center, open-label, safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetic study of oral treprostinil in pediatric subjects with stable PAH aged 7 to 17 years who were (1) transitioning from parenteral Remodulin therapy; (2) transitioning from inhaled prostacyclin therapy; or (3) not currently receiving prostacyclin therapy.

Detailed Description

Study TDE-PH-206 was a multicenter, open-label study designed to investigate the safety, tolerability, and PK of oral treprostinil administered 3 times daily (TID) or 4 times daily (QID), at the discretion of the Investigator, with food in pediatric PAH subjects aged 7 to 17 years of age (1) transitioning from continuous IV/SC Remodulin, (2) transitioning from inhaled prostacyclin, or (3) as add-on to current PAH therapies in de novo prostacyclin subjects. Eligible subjects were assigned to a cohort based upon their background therapy. All subjects received oral treprostinil provided as 0.125, 0.25, 1, or 2.5 mg extended-release tablets. Subjects in Cohort 1 began the transition from IV/SC Remodulin in the hospital with a goal of complete transition to oral treprostinil within 5 days. The initial dose of oral treprostinil for Cohort 1 was calculated from the subject's dose of IV/SC Remodulin and weight. Subjects in Cohorts 2 and 3 were initiated on 0.125 mg TID or QID oral treprostinil with dose escalations possible every 24 hours in increments of 0.125 mg TID or QID at the discretion of the Investigator during the first 4 weeks, and in increments of either 0.125 mg or 0.25 mg every 24 hours thereafter. Cross titration occurred for Cohorts 1 and 2 such that doses of IV/SC Remodulin or inhaled prostacyclin were decreased as subjects were fully transitioned to oral treprostinil.

Time Frame: Baseline and Week 24
PAH symptoms (fatigue, dyspnea, edema, dizziness, syncope, chest pain, orthopnea) were assessed at the Baseline Visit prior to the initiation of oral treprostinil dosing and at Week 24. Scores range from 0 (for the best condition) to 3 (for the worst condition).
Baseline and Week 24
Change in Panama Functional Class From Baseline to Week 24

Baseline and Week 24
Change in 6-Minute Walk Distance (6MWD) From Baseline to Week 24
Time Frame: Baseline and Week 24
The intent of the 6MWT was to evaluate exercise capacity associated with carrying out activities of daily living. Total distance covered in a total of 6 minutes was measured. Oxygen saturation and heart rate (HR) were measured at rest prior to the 6MWT and monitored continuously during the walk. Recovery monitoring (HR and oxygen saturation) was performed and documented at Minute 0 (immediately upon stopping the 6MWT), Minute 1, Minute 2, and Minute 3 post walk.
Baseline and Week 24
Change in Borg Dyspnea Score From Baseline to Week 24
Time Frame: Baseline and Week 24
The Borg dyspnea score was assessed prior to and following the completion of the 6MWT at Week 24. The Borg dyspnea score is a 10-point scale rating the maximum level of dyspnea experienced during the 6MWT. Scores range from 0 (for the best condition) to 10 (for the worst condition).
Baseline and Week 24
Change in Quality of Life Assessed Via the Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory (PedsQL) Questionnaire From Baseline to Week 24
Time Frame: Baseline and Week 24
Four subscales [items]: (Physical [8], Emotional [5], Social [5], School Functioning [5]). Subjects and subjects' parent(s) completed PedsQL at Week 24. Response to each item on the subscales were graded 0-4 (0=never a problem, 1=almost never a problem, 2=sometimes a problem, 3=often a problem, 4=almost always a problem). Response to each item was transformed from the 0-4 scale to a 0-100 scale as follows: 0=100, 1=75, 2=50, 3=25, 4=0. Using transformed values, mean was computed as sum of the items in each subscale over number of items answered in the same subscale. Two summary scores (Psychosocial Health Summary Score and Total Scale Score) were calculated with a range of 0-100 (higher values indicating better outcome). Psychosocial Health Summary Score was mean computed as sum of the items over the number of items answered in the Emotional, Social, and School Functioning Scales. Total Score was calculated as sum of all items over number of items answered on all the scales.
