What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study tests an experimental drug called IKT-001 in people with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), a condition where high blood pressure in the lungs makes it hard to breathe and move. About 486 adults will receive either IKT-001 or a placebo to see if the drug improves blood flow and walking distance. The goal is to find a new way to manage PAH symptoms.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
IKT-001 (tablet)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could provide a new treatment option to help control pulmonary arterial hypertension and improve daily function.
What could go wrong
This is a Phase 3 trial, but results are not guaranteed. The drug may not work better than placebo, and side effects are possible.

Inclusion Criteria: * Documented diagnosis of WHO PAH Group 1 in any of the following subtypes: * Idiopathic PAH * Heritable PAH * Drug/toxin-induced PAH * PAH associated with connective tissue disease (CTD) * PAH associated with simple, congenital systemic-to-pulmonary shunts at least 1 year following repair * Men and women 18 and 75 years of age (inclusive) * Must have a body mass index (BMI) of ≥18.5 kg/m\^2 and ≤35.0 kg/m\^2 at screening. * Baseline RHC performed during the Screening Period documenting a PVR of ≥ 400 dyn/sec/cm\^5 ; pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP) ≤15 mmHg and mean pulmonary artery pressure (mPAP) \>20 mmHg. PVR enrichment criteria to ensure population baseline PVR \>700 dynes/sec/cm\^5 * On stable doses of background PAH therapy including endothelin receptor antagonists, phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitors, prostacyclins, and soluble guanylate cyclase stimulators for ≥90 days prior to screening. Current use of sotatercept is not permitted. * 6MWD ≥ 100 and ≤ 475 m Exclusion Criteria: * Diagnosis of PAH WHO Groups 2, 3, 4, or 5. * Diagnosis of the following PAH Group 1 subtypes: human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-associated PAH, PAH associated with portal hypertension, schistosomiasis-associated PAH, and pulmonary veno-occlusive disease. * Any of the following blood pressure-related values or abnormalities: Uncontrolled systemic hypertension as evidenced by sitting systolic BP \>160 mmHg or sitting diastolic BP \>100 mmHg at screening, Baseline systolic BP \<90 mmHg at screening, Syncope within 3 months prior to screening * History of restrictive, constrictive, or congestive cardiomyopathy. * ECG with Fridericia's corrected QT interval (QTcF) ≥ 450 msec in males or ≥ 470 msec in females at screening or ≥500 msec in the presence of a right bundle branch block. * Personal or family history of long QT syndrome or sudden cardiac death. * Presence of a CardioMEMS device or any other implanted hemodynamic monitoring device. * Forced vital capacity (FVC) \<70 percent on pulmonary function test (PFT) performed no more than 6 months prior to screening; or if FVC is 60 percent to 69 percent, must have a chest computed tomography scan within 12 months with no more than mild interstitial lung disease. * History of atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter. * History of cerebrovascular accident, intracranial hemorrhage, or subdural hematoma at anytime, or a fall associated with head trauma within 3 months of screening. * Acutely decompensated right heart failure within 30 days prior to screening, as per investigator assessment. * Clinically significant ischemic, valvular, constrictive heart disease, or heart failure with preserved ejection fraction in the opinion of the investigator. * History of pneumonectomy. * Untreated or inadequately treated (in the opinion of the investigator) obstructive sleep apnea. * Acute or chronic hepatitis B or C infection, defined as: * Hepatitis B virus: a positive hepatitis B surface antigen test or a positive hepatitis B core antibody test with detectable DNA * Hepatitis C virus (HCV): a positive hepatitis C antibody test with detectable HCV ribonucleic acid (RNA).Participants with a positive hepatitis C antibody test, but no detectable HCV RNA who completed treatment with direct-acting antivirals may be considered after discussion with the medical monitor. * History of or currently diagnosed with a bleeding disorder, including but not limited to hemophilia, von Willebrand disease, thrombocytopenia, or significant bleeding history defined as any bleeding event requiring medical intervention. * Received treatment with any of the following excluded medications: * Currently receiving strong cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A inducers or CYP3A inhibitors (except for topical administration) * Currently receiving or anticipated need to receive any anticoagulant (e.g., heparins, vitamin K antagonists, direct oral anticoagulants, or direct thrombin inhibitors). * Current use of sotatercept. Note: participants who previously received sotatercept may be considered if the last dose administered was \>6 months prior to screening, participant had no significant bleeding events while on sotatercept. * Initiation of an exercise program for cardiopulmonary rehabilitation within 90 days prior to screening or planned initiation during the study (participants who are stable in the maintenance phase of a program and who will continue for the duration of the study are eligible). * History of atrial septostomy within 180 days prior to screening. * Current participation in another investigational clinical trial and/or receipt of any investigational medication within 90 days prior to screening. * Previous randomization into this or another IKT-001 study. * Any social, behavioral, or medical reason that would preclude completion of the study, in the judgement of the investigator. * Currently lactating, pregnant or planning on becoming pregnant during the study. * Prior receipt of a solid organ transplant or stem cell transplant. * Planned surgery that would require any study drug interruption or interfere with study assessments during the study (minor procedures may be allowed in consultation with the medical monitor). * Malignancy within the last 5 years prior to consent except completely treated non-metastatic-basal cell, squamous cell, in situ cervical cancer, and clinically localized National Comprehensive Cancer Network very low to low risk prostate cancer under active surveillance.
