NCT00554619

Brief Summary

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety of long-term administration of GSK1325760A in patients with PAH. The secondary objectives of this study are to evaluate long-term administration of GSK1325760A on:

  • Improvement in exercise capacity (six-minutes walk distance: 6MWD), change in WHO Functional Classification and time to clinical worsening of PAH
  • Change in the Borg Dyspnea Index (assessed immediately following the six-minute walk test \[6MWT\])
  • Change in plasma brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) levels
  • Cardiopulmonary hemodynamics parameters (as measured by echocardiography)

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Number of Participants With Any Adverse Event

    An adverse event was defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a participant, temporally associated with the use of an investigational product, whether or not considered related to the investigational product.

    For 140.57 weeks at maximum, starting from Week 24

  • Number of Participants With Adverse Events Categorized by Severity

    The severity of adverse events was assessed by the investigator; events were assigned to one of the following categories: mild, an event that was easily tolerated by the participant, causing minimal discomfort and not interfering with everyday activities; moderate, an event that was sufficiently discomforting to interfere with normal everyday activities; and severe, an event that prevented normal everyday activities.

    For 140.57 weeks at maximum, starting from Week 24

Secondary Outcomes (7)

  • Mean Change From Baseline in Six Minutes Walk Distance (6MWD) at Weeks 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 84, 96, 108, 120, 132, 144, and 156

    Baseline and Weeks 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 84, 96, 108, 120, 132, 144, and 156

  • Mean Change From Baseline in the Borg Dyspnea Index (BDI) at Weeks 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 84, 96, 108, 120, 132, 144, 156, and Withdrawal/Completion

    Baseline and Weeks 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 84, 96, 108, 120, 132, 144, 156, and Withdrawal/Completion (up to Week 159.85)

  • Number of Participants With the Indicated Change From Baseline in Their World Health Organization (WHO) Functional Classification (FC) at Weeks 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 84, 96, 108, 120, 132, 144, 156, and Withdrawal/Completion

    Baseline and Weeks 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 84, 96, 108, 120, 132, 144, 156, and Withdrawal/Completion (up to Week 164.14)

  • Number of Participants With the Indicated Event, as an Assessment of Time to Clinical Worsening of Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH), Assessed as the First Occurrence of a Particular Event

    Up to 164.14 weeks

  • Mean Change From Baseline in Mean Pulmonary Artery Pressure (mPAP) at Weeks 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 84, 96, 108, 120, 132, 144, 156, and Withdrawal/Completion

    Baseline and Weeks 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 84, 96, 108, 120, 132, 144, 156, and Withdrawal/Completion (up to Week 153)

Eligibility Criteria

Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsChild (0-17), Adult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Subjects who complete the 24-week administration of the Phase II/III study (Study No.AMB107816)
  • Subjects who are assessed that the long-term extension administration of GSK1325760A is appropriate in the judgement of the investigator or subinvestigator

  • Female subjects who wish to become pregnant.
  • Treatment with other PAH medication is needed.
  • A worsening of 2 or more levels of the WHO Functional Classification (see Appendix 2.1) comparing with the baseline of Phase II/III study (Study No.AMB107816).
