2 november 2026 bijgewerkt door: United Therapeutics

A Multicenter, Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Phase 2 Study to Evaluate the Safety and Tolerability of Treprostinil Administered Via a Soft Mist Inhaler (SMI) in Participants With Pulmonary Hypertension Associated With Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (PH-COPD)

The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of treprostinil administered with a soft mist inhaler (SMI) over 16 weeks in approximately 40 participants with PH-COPD.

Studie Overzicht

Gedetailleerde beschrijving

SMI-PH-201 is a Phase 2, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group, multicenter, safety and tolerability study with secondary endpoints evaluating the efficacy of the study drug on exercise capacity and NT-proBNP.

Eligible participants will be randomly assigned 1:1 to treprostinil SMI or placebo at the Baseline Visit and receive study drug over a 16-week period. Participants will return to the clinic for follow-up visits at Weeks 4, 8, 12, 15, and 16.

Study drug will be administered via a combination drug-device product that consists of the SMI with an associated cartridge containing a propellant-free, liquid-based formulation of treprostinil inhalation spray. Participants will receive study drug in multi-use cartridges containing either treprostinil (in concentrations of 1.34, 2.68, 4.02, and 5.36 mg/mL) or placebo.

Secundaire uitkomstmaten

Uitkomstmaat
Maatregel Beschrijving
Tijdsspanne
Change in peak 6-Minute Walk Distance (6MWD) from baseline to Week 16
Tijdsspanne: 16 weeks

The intent of the 6MWD test is to evaluate exercise capacity associated with carrying out activities of daily living. Change in 6MWD from baseline to Week 16 correlates with the current clinical standard for assessing patient functional status in the treatment of PH and is considered an objective measure of patient functional status. Participants will be instructed to walk down a corridor at a comfortable speed as far as they can manage for six minutes. Peak exposure 6MWD will occur by conducting the 6-minute walk test within 10 to 60 minutes after the most recent dose of study drug.

16 weeks
Change in trough 6MWD from baseline to Week 15
Tijdsspanne: 15 weeks

The intent of the 6MWD test is to evaluate exercise capacity associated with carrying out activities of daily living. Change in 6MWD from baseline to Week 15 correlates with the current clinical standard for assessing patient functional status in the treatment of PH and is considered an objective measure of patient functional status. Participants will be instructed to walk down a corridor at a comfortable speed as far as they can manage for six minutes. Trough exposure 6MWD will occur by conducting 6-minute walk test at least four hours after the most recent study drug dose.

15 weeks
Change in N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) from baseline to Week 16
Tijdsspanne: 16 weeks

The NT-proBNP serum concentration is a useful biomarker associated with changes in right heart morphology and function. NT-proBNP serum concentration will be assessed to compare the severity of heart failure at baseline and Week 16.

16 weeks
Change in overall adverse events
Tijdsspanne: 16 weeks

The incidence of adverse events among participants throughout the 16-week study will be measured by the number of participants analyzed and the percentage of those participants who experienced an adverse event.

16 weeks
Change in Forced Expiratory Volume in One Second (FEV1) as % predicted
Tijdsspanne: 16 weeks

FEV1 is a standard indicator of lung function and measures the maximal amount of air forcefully exhaled in 1 second.

16 weeks
Change in Forced Vital Capacity (FVC) in mL
Tijdsspanne: 16 weeks

FVC is a standard indicator of lung function and measures the amount of air a person can forcefully and quickly exhale after taking a deep breath.

16 weeks
Change in FEV1/FVC ratio
Tijdsspanne: 16 weeks

The FEV1/FVC ratio measures how much air is exhaled in one second compared to a full breath. This helps determine if the lung condition is restrictive or obstructive and its severity.

16 weeks
Change in Total Lung Capacity (TLC) in mL
Tijdsspanne: 16 weeks

TLC is a standard indicator of lung function and measures the maximum volume of lung capacity after very deep inhalation.

16 weeks
Change in Lung Diffusion Capacity (DLCO) as % predicted
Tijdsspanne: 16 weeks

DLCO is a standard indicator of lung function and measures how well oxygen moves from the lungs to the blood.

16 weeks
Change in the saturation of peripheral capillary oxygenation (SpO2)
Tijdsspanne: 16 weeks

Pulse oximetry will measure SpO2 as a percentage, indicating hypoxemia and respiratory distress.

16 weeks
Change in supplemental oxygen use
Tijdsspanne: 16 weeks

Supplemental oxygen use, as measured in L, indicates chronic hypoxemia.

16 weeks
Change in 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG)
Tijdsspanne: 16 weeks

The 12-lead ECG measures electrical cardiac activity, including heart rate and rhythm (PR interval, QT interval, QT interval corrected for heart rate by Fridericia's formula, and QRS duration).

16 weeks
Incidence of acute exacerbations of COPD
Tijdsspanne: 16 weeks

An acute exacerbation of COPD is defined as an event characterized by increased dyspnea and/or cough and sputum that worsens in <14 days, which may be accompanied by tachypnea and/or tachycardia, and is often associated with increased local and systemic inflammation caused by infection, pollution, or other insult to the airways. For this study, the following diagnostic criteria will be used to support a diagnosis of acute COPD exacerbation:

  • Previous or concurrent diagnosis of COPD
  • Acute worsening or development of dyspnea typically of less than 14-day duration
  • Deterioration not fully explained by heart failure, pneumonia, or pulmonary embolism
16 weeks
