Can a simple urine test predict who benefits from PH treatment?
NCT ID NCT07254338
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study looks at small molecules (metabolites) in the blood and urine of people with pulmonary hypertension caused by lung fibrosis. Researchers want to see how these metabolites change with treatment and whether they can tell who will respond well. The goal is to better understand how treatments work and to avoid giving ineffective therapies to fragile patients.
