Clinical Study to Assess the Long-term Safety and Tolerability of ACT 064992 in Patients With Symptomatic Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension
The main objective of the AC 055 303/SERAPHIN OL study, which will follow the AC 055 302/SERAPHIN study, will be to assess the long-term safety and tolerability of ACT 064992 in patients with symptomatic PAH.

Clinical Study to Assess the Safety, Tolerability and Efficacy of Macitentan in Subjects With Inoperable Chronic Thromboembolic Pulmonary Hypertension
Long-term study to evaluate if macitentan is safe, tolerable and efficient enough to be used for treatment of inoperable chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH)

Clinical Study to Compare the Efficacy and Safety of Macitentan and Tadalafil Monotherapies With the Corresponding Fixed-dose Combination Therapy in Subjects With Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH)
Combination therapy in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) has been the subject of active investigation for more than a decade, with the benefit of targeting different pathways known to be involved in the pathogenesis of the disease. Adherence to prescribed therapy has an impact on clinical outcomes. Reducing the pill/tablet count and frequency has a major impact on patients' adherence to therapies and therefore the observed clinical outcomes. One way to simplify treatment is to use fixed-dose combination (FDC) products that combine multiple treatments targeting different pathways into a single tablet. This study aims to demonstrate that...

Combined Use of Radiofrequency-ablation and Balloon-septostomy in the Creation of a Stable Inter-atrial Communication
Though graded balloon-atrial-septostomy (BAS) has been accepted as an effective palliative therapy for severe pulmonary arterial hypertension, spontaneous closure of septostomy is not uncommon. Radiofrequency-catheter-ablation (RFA), which has the potential to cause irreversible damage around the rim of created inter-atrial communication, might contribute to prevent the spontaneous closure. In patients with severe pulmonary arterial hypertension, the combined use of RFA and BAS (CURB) is investigated to create a stable inter-atrial communication.

COMPERA / COMPERA-KIDS
In view of the manifold options for mono- and combination therapy that have now emerged for patients with pulmonary (arterial) hypertension (PH/PAH), controlled clinical trials can only provide part of the information needed for optimal management. In order to gather adequate data on PAH/PH treatment in routine clinical care, the ongoing COMPERA registry prospectively documents consecutive patients with newly initiated treatment of PAH/PAH since May 2007. The internet-based registry fulfills high quality standards through several measures (planned minimum centre contribution of at least 10 patients per year, automated plausibility checks of...

CompRehensive Phenotypic Characterization of Patients With Scleroderma-Associated ILD and PH
Patients with interstitial lung disease (ILD) and scleroderma who develop pulmonary hypertension (PH) do not fit well into the current classification system and treatments for pulmonary hypertension. This study aims to better understand patients with ILD-PH and scleroderma and to determine if treatment with Macitentan is beneficial.

Computerized Decision Support to Increase Detection of Chronic Thromboembolic Pulmonary Hypertension in Patients With Prior Pulmonary Embolism
To address the knowledge gap that exists among providers resulting in underdiagnosis of chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH), the investigators have devised this 400-patient single-center Quality Improvement Initiative in the form of a randomized controlled trial of an EPIC Best Practice Advisory (BPA) on-screen alert versus no notification to increase echocardiographic screening for CTEPH and the diagnosis of CTEPH in patients with prior pulmonary embolism (PE) and symptoms/signs suggestive of pulmonary hypertension or recent pulmonary testing suggesting unexplained respiratory symptoms at 3 months. Aim #1: To...

CXA-10 Study in Subjects With Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension
This is a Phase 2, multicenter, open-label extension (OLE) of study CXA-10-301, to evaluate the long term safety and efficacy of daily dosing of CXA-10.

Database for Clinical and Anamnestic Data in Pulmonary Hypertension
Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is defined as a pulmonary arterial mean pressure (meanPAP) ≥ 25 mmHg measured in the right heart catheterization. There are different forms of PH defined in the classification of Dana Point 2008. PH is diagnosed with right heart catheterization but there are other non invasive methods which can be used for screening like the echocardiography, stress echocardiography and cardio pulmonary exercise testing. In the diagnosis process and in the follow up of PH patients biomarkers like NTproBNP are helpful. There are no specific biomarkers for the disease which can make the diagnosis process easier and predict...

DataBase of pulmoNary hyPertesion in PoLish Population - BNP-PL
The BNP-PL is a multicenter, observational study in which patients are prospectively followed in order to investigate clinical course and management of pulmonary hypertension in Poland. All patients diagnosed with pulmonary arterial hypertension and chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension confirmed in right heart catheterization, will be eligible to participate in the study.
