LTP001 for Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension

Phase 2
Waitlist Available
Research Sponsored by Novartis Pharmaceuticals
Eligibility Criteria Checklist
Specific guidelines that determine who can or cannot participate in a clinical trial
Must have
Resting mean pulmonary arterial pressure (mPAP) > 25 mmHg; pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP) or left ventricular end diastolic pressure < 15 mmHg, as determined by right heart catheterization within 20 days of randomization
Be older than 18 years old
Must not have
Acute or chronic impairment (other than dyspnea), which would limit the ability to comply with study requirements, including interference with physical activity and execution of study procedures such as 6MWT (e.g., angina pectoris, claudication, musculoskeletal disorder, multiple sclerosis, need for walking aids)
Participants with pulmonary hypertension (PH) in the Clinical Classification Groups 2-5 (WHO), and any PAH Group 1 subgroups not covered by Inclusion Criterion #4
Timeline
Screening 3 weeks
Treatment Varies
Follow Up baseline, weeks 5, 13 and 25

Summary

This trial is testing a new medication called LTP001 to see if it can help adults with high blood pressure in their lung arteries. The medication likely works by lowering the pressure in these arteries, making it easier for the heart to pump blood.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for people with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) who are in WHO Functional Class II-III, have a specific level of pulmonary vascular resistance, and belong to certain PAH subgroups. They must be able to walk a certain distance and be on stable standard care therapy for PAH.
What is being tested?
The study tests the effectiveness and safety of LTP001 compared to a placebo in improving conditions for those with PAH. Participants will either receive LTP001 or a placebo without knowing which one they're getting.
What are the potential side effects?
While the side effects of LTP001 are not detailed here, common side effects from similar treatments may include headache, dizziness, nausea, diarrhea, rash or swelling at injection sites.
