  • Research summary

    Patients with Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH) have high blood pressure in the blood vessels between their heart and lungs. These have become narrow, so the heart works harder, leading to a weakened heart. Patients are usually breathless on exertion, tired and can do less exercise. Noticeable symptoms of right heart failure show late in the disease. The 5-year survival rate for patients is 57%.
    This study is an extension to protocol CXA-10-301. It will allow adult patients with PAH, who complete study CXA-10-301, to continue treatment with CXA-10 for an additional 6 months. It will see if CXA-10, a new study drug, can help improve heart health and to see if it is safe, over the long term. All patients will receive one 150mg dose of CXA-10 daily.
    The study will be conducted in the USA and in approximately 6 sites in the UK. The UK sites are PAH centres. PAH patients who are being treated at the sites and who have completed CXA-10-301 will be invited to take part.
    Each patient will be on the study for about 6.5 months. The study has:
    • Baseline; may be completed as V9 of protocol CXA-10-301.
    • Study Drug Period: 6 months.
    • Follow-Up Period: About 14 days after the last dose of study drug, to check that patients are doing fine.
    There are five clinic visits and one visit by phone. 5 visits are over-night fasted. Procedures will include one cardiac MRI, walking distance checks, blood draw every visit, ECGs, vital signs, physicals, urine samples, questionnaire completion, and blood oxygen levels.
