PULMONARY ARTERIAL HYPERTENSION (PAH)

This trial will compare three drugs—dopamine, norepinephrine, and epinephrine—to see which works best for people experiencing a pulmonary hypertensive crisis, a life-threatening spike in blood pressure in the lungs. The study will enroll 75 adults with pulmonary arterial hyperten…

This study tests whether a 12-week tele-pulmonary rehabilitation program, done at home via an app with a physiotherapist, helps people with chronic lung diseases start and stick with rehab better than going to a center. 90 patients will be randomly assigned to either remote rehab…

This study is checking the long-term safety of a daily pill called IKT-001 for people with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), a serious lung condition. About 484 adults who have already completed an earlier IKT-001 study will take the drug for an extended period. Researchers …

This Phase 3 study tests VI-0106, an extended-release form of tacrolimus, in 300 people with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) who still have trouble with daily activities despite taking standard PAH medications. Participants will receive either the drug or a placebo for 24 w…

This phase 2 trial tests whether adding tiprelestat (elafin) to standard care improves blood flow in the lungs for people with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). About 90 adults with moderate to severe PAH will receive either a daily injection of tiprelestat or a placebo for …

This study will test whether the drug sotatercept can reverse damage to the lung's blood vessels in people with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Researchers will use special imaging techniques to look inside the arteries and see if they become healthier over 9 months. The s…

This study looks at how well the oral medication selexipag works over the long term for people with a specific type of lung hypertension caused by schistosomiasis (a parasitic infection). Researchers will compare patients who received selexipag as part of routine care to similar …

This early study tests a single dose of stem cells (PNEUMOSTEM®) given into the windpipe of very premature babies with high blood pressure in their lungs. The goal is to see if it is safe and might improve breathing, reduce time on a ventilator, and lower the need for oxygen. Onl…

This phase 2 trial tests whether a triple combination of three drugs—sotatercept, an endothelin receptor antagonist, and a phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitor—can improve blood flow in the lungs of people newly diagnosed with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). The study will enroll…

This study tests whether adding an injectable medication called treprostinil to standard oral therapy can improve heart function in people with intermediate-risk pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). About 32 adults will receive the drug for 3 months, with heart scans and walkin…

This study follows 32 adults with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) whose doctors decide to switch them from inhaled iloprost (taken several times a day) to oral selexipag (a pill). Researchers will use questionnaires to see if the switch improves quality of life, treatment s…

This pilot study will use special PET/CT scans to see how the experimental drug sotatercept affects blood vessel remodeling in the lungs and heart of people with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). About 15 adults with PAH will receive sotatercept and have imaging at the start…

This study will create and test a new questionnaire to measure quality of life in Chinese patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), a serious lung condition. Researchers will work with 300 adults to ensure the tool is accurate and useful for doctors and health policy. …

This study looks at whether environmental toxins, drugs, and workplace exposures play a role in causing pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), a rare and serious lung condition. Researchers will compare 150 newly diagnosed patients with PAH to those with another form of pulmonary…

This study aims to find genetic variants that may explain why some people with a rare liver bypass condition (congenital portosystemic shunt) develop a serious lung complication called portopulmonary hypertension. Researchers will analyze blood samples from 120 patients and their…

This study uses a short questionnaire to learn where patients with pulmonary hypertension and their caregivers search for health information, what topics they look for, how satisfied they are, and which sources they trust most. Researchers will enroll 100 adults in Brazil. The go…
