About this study

Official title: Drug Use Investigation of Riociguat for ChronicThromboembolic Pulmonary Hypertension (CTEPH)

This local, prospective, non-interventional, multi-center study includes patients treated with Riociguat for inoperable CTEPH(Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension)/ persistent or recurrent CTEPH after surgical treatment. It is planned to include a total of 400 patients (valid for safety analysis). This study is performed as an all-case investigation. The treatment of Riociguat is performed based on the product label in Japan. The standard observation period is 12 months from the 1st treatment of Riociguat. Safety and effectiveness are evaluated at 4th and 12th month. In addition, the extension observation is carried out once a year for 7 years at the longest to collect information on safety and effectiveness as long as Riociguat treatment continues. When the treatment of Riociguat is terminated, observation of a patient ends. For each patient, the investigator records data as defined in the protocol at each evaluation point by using the Electronic Data Capture (EDC) system. The duration of the study is approximately 9 years from launch.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Number of participants with treatment emergent adverse events and adverse drug reactions

    Measured: up to 8 years

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Change from baseline in 6MWD (6-Minute Walking Distance) after 4 and 12 months

    Measured: baseline and 4 months, and 12 months

  2. Change from baseline in Pulmonary Vascular Resistance (PVR) after 4 and 12 months

    Measured: baseline and 4 months, and 12 months

  3. Change from baseline in TRPG (Tricuspid Regurgitation Pressure Gradient) after 4 and 12 months

    Measured: baseline and 4 months, and 12 months

  4. Change from baseline in BNP/NT-pro BNP after 4 and 12 months

    Measured: baseline and 4 months, and 12 months

  5. Change from baseline in WHO (World Health Organization) functional class after 4 and 12 months

    Measured: baseline and 4 months, and 12 months

  6. Time to Clinical Worsening

    The first occurrence of the following events is recorded and will be considered for the calculation of the combined endpoint: • Death (all-cause mortality) • Heart/lung transplantation • Rescue Pulmonary Endarterectomy, Rescue Balloon Pulmonary Angioplasty or Hospitalization due to persistent worsening of Pulmonary Hypertension • Start of new PH specific treatment due to worsening Pulmonary Hypertension. • Persistent decrease in 6MWD due to worsening pulmonary hypertension • Persistent worsening of functional class due to deterioration of Pulmonary Hypertension.

    Measured: up to 8 years

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of participants with treatment emergent adverse events and adverse drug reactions (time frame: up to 8 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02117791, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 11 Apr 2024.
