Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The objectives of this study are to develop research methods and corresponding materials for a study of the effectiveness of sitaxentan sodium (Thelin) in "real-world" settings; to pilot test these methods at three study centers in Europe; and to refine and finalize research methods and corresponding materials for possible use in a follow-on, full-scale examination of the effectiveness of sitaxentan sodium (Thelin) in "real-world" settings.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

At each centre, approximately 12-15 Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH) consecutive patients who have received Thelin and who meet all other study entry criteria.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* Idiopathic PAH, or PAH secondary to connective tissue disease
* Receipt of Thelin for treatment of PAH
* 6 months of follow-up (except in the event of death) subsequent to initial receipt of Thelin
* Minimum of one clinic visit documented in the medical record during the 6-month period subsequent to initial receipt of Thelin

Exclusion Criteria

* Participation in any investigational study of Thelin or any other medication for the treatment of PAH during the period beginning 6 months prior to initial receipt of Thelin and ending 6 months subsequent to such receipt
* Receipt of Thelin prior to January 11, 2005 (i.e., the date following the last day on which patients could be enrolled in double-blind treatment in STRIDE-1, STRIDE-2, and/or STRIDE-6); or
* Known contraindications to Thelin therapy (i.e., known hypersensitivity to sitaxsentan or any of its excipients; mild-to-severe hepatic impairment \[Child-Pugh Class A-C\]; elevated aminotransferases prior to initiation of treatment, defined as aspartate aminotransferase \[AST\] and/or alanine aminotransferase \[ALT\] \>3 times upper limit of normal \[ULN\]; concomitant use of cyclosporin A; lactation)
