Sildenafil
Participants with thalassemia who have pulmonary hypertension received sildenafil for 12 weeks.
Sildenafil : Participants received sildenafil for 12 weeks with the following therapy:
50 mg of oral sildenafil three times a day (TID) increased to 100 mg TID as tolerated in adults and children greater than 50 kg; 1 mg/kg sildenafil TID without dose escalation in children less than 50 kg
|
Control
Participants with thalassemia who do not have pulmonary hypertension were part of a control group and were only undergoing screening/baseline assessments.

PRIMARY outcome
Timeframe: Baseline and Week 12Population: Of 14 patients in the Sildenafil arm, 4 patients with discrepant Tricuspid Regurgitant Jet Velocity (TRV) measurements between the local site, core lab and NHLBI readings and 2 patients who had no 6MWT at 12 weeks were excluded. Patients in control group were only assessed at baseline. Therefore, 8 Sildenafil and 0 control patients were used.
Change in six-minute walk test (6MWT) distance was calculated as 6MWT at week 12 minus 6MWT at baseline.
