A Study of Single Doses of Frespaciguat (MK-5475) on Pulmonary Vascular Resistance (MK-5475-002)

A Study to Assess the Effect of Single Doses of MK-5475 on Pulmonary Vascular Resistance in Patients With Moderate to Severe Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension

This study of frespaciguat in participants with Group 1 pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) will assess the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics (PK) of inhaled frespaciguat. There is no formal hypothesis to be tested.

Study Overview

• Status: Completed
• Conditions: Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension
• Intervention / Treatment: Drug: Frespaciguat; Drug: Placebo

Detailed Description

In Part 1, one panel (Panel A) of up to 8 participants will dose in up to 3 dosing periods, with a minimum washout of 7 days between dosing periods. In each dosing period, 6 participants will receive frespaciguat and 2 will receive placebo, with 2 different participants receiving placebo in each of the dosing periods. Review of available safety data will occur prior to escalating to the next dose level.

Participants from Part 1 may continue into Part 2, which will assess safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of single-dose inhaled frespaciguat. Three additional panels of participants (Panels B, C and D) will be enrolled into Part 2. Participants in Panel A will participate in 2 open-label dosing periods to assess PD measures associated with right heart catherization (RHC) [Period 2] and functional respiratory imaging (FRI) [Period 3]. Participants in Panels B, C, and D will participate in 3 dosing periods: Period 1 (open-label assessment of safety/tolerability and PK), Period 2 (FRI period) and Period 3 (RHC period).

An AE could therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease that was temporally associated with use of a medicinal product, regardless of whether or not it was considered related to the medicinal product. The number of participants who experienced at least 1 AE was reported by dose separately for Part 1 plus Part 2 Period 1, for the RHC Period, and for the FRI Period.
