AIRDROP: Can we Improve Adherence to Inhaled Treatment for Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension?
Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension is a rare and progressive condition that compromises pulmonary circulation and can lead to right ventricular failure. Despite recent advances in diagnosis and treatment, the median survival of patients is only 2.8 years. The treatment for this disease is based on drugs that act on three main …
Exercise Capacity Muscle Oxygenation and Arterial Stiffness in Children With Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension
The primary aim is to evaluate pulmonary function, respiratory muscle strength, upper and lower extremity exercise capacity, muscle oxygenation, dyspnea, peripheral muscle strength, arterial stiffness, physical activity level and balance in children with pulmonary arterial hypertension and compare with age- and sex-matched healthy controls. The second aim is to investigate …
Study Roles of Heavy Metals and Essential Metal Dyshomeostasis in Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension Patients
Investigators plan to recruit 50 PAH patients from UofL PAH Clinic, with various degrees of severity (25 intermediate risk patients and 20 high risk patients) and 10 age and gender matched controls. PAH patients are evaluated at least every 6 months by the PAH Clinic and blood/urine samples will be …
COMPression of Left Main coRonary artEry in patientS With Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension aSymptomatIc fOr aNgina
The prevalence of critical ab extrinsic compression of left main coronary artery (LMCA) is very high in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) symptomatic for angina (up to 40% according to a recent study of 121 patients with PAH). The element that most of all correlates with the degree of …
A Study Evaluating the Safety and Tolerability of Artesunate in Patients With Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension
This is a 20-week, Phase 1, single-center, open-label, dose-escalation study evaluating the safety and tolerability of daily oral artesunate in patients with PAH.
A Study on the Efficacy and Safety of Empagliflozin in the Treatment of Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if empagliflozin works to treat patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension. It will also learn about the safety of empagliflozin. The main questions it aims to answer are: Based on standard treatment, does empagliflozin reduce pulmonary artery pressure and improve cardiac function …
A Study of Sotatercept for Patients With Eisenmenger Syndrome or Unrepaired Shunt-Associated Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension Resistant to Vasodilator Therapy
What is this study about? This study will test whether adding sotatercept to usual medicines for pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) can help adults who have PAH due to unrepaired congenital heart defects (atrial or ventricular septal defect, or patent ductus arteriosus), including Eisenmenger syndrome. These conditions often cause long-standing changes …
Multicenter Study on the Development of Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension Screening Models Based on Artificial Intelligence for Patients With Systemic Sclerosis
Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH) is a rare and severe condition that can be associated with Systemic Sclerosis (SSc), significantly worsening the prognosis of the latter disease. Screening programs based on clinical, laboratory, pulmonary function test, electrocardiographic, and echocardiographic data have been shown to enable earlier diagnosis and improve the prognosis …
Study of Cardiac MRI in the Follow up Assessment of Patients With PAH (EVITA)
Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is characterized by a progressive increase in pulmonary vascular resistance leading to right ventricular failure and eventually to death. The therapeutic strategy has become complex and needs to perform recurring follow up evaluations including right heart catheterizations (RHC). Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (cMRI) has the advantage …
Pulmonary Hypertension: Intensification and Personalisation of Combination Rx
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the capacity of implantable/remote technology for early evaluation of drug therapies in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). The main question it aims to answer is whether structured changes in clinical therapy will be detectable using implanted regulatory approved devices. Participants …
