Trial Outcomes & Findings for Clinical Study to Assess the Efficacy and Safety of Macitentan in Patients With Pulmonary Hypertension After Left Ventricular Assist Device Implantation (NCT NCT02554903)

NCT ID: NCT02554903

Last Updated: 2025-03-30

Results Overview

PVR ratio equals to Week 12 PVR / Baseline PVR. PVR represents the resistance against which the right ventricle needs to pump. PVR was calculated using the following formula: mean pulmonary arterial pressure (mPAP) - pulmonary artery wedge pressure (PAWP)/cardiac output (CO); where mPAP and PAWP were measured at end-expiration and CO was measured in triplicate using the thermodilution method.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline to Week 12

Population: The Full Analysis Set (FAS) included all participants randomized. Here 'N' (number of participants analyzed) included all participants who were evaluable for this outcome measure. Imputation for missing PAWP value was done using mPAP and CO or with left ventricular end diastolic pressure (LVEDP) values of same visit (if available).

PVR ratio equals to Week 12 PVR / Baseline PVR. PVR represents the resistance against which the right ventricle needs to pump. PVR was calculated using the following formula: mean pulmonary arterial pressure (mPAP) - pulmonary artery wedge pressure (PAWP)/cardiac output (CO); where mPAP and PAWP were measured at end-expiration and CO was measured in triplicate using the thermodilution method.

WHO FC is a classification which reflects disease severity based on symptoms. WHO Functional Classification of pulmonary hypertension comprises of Class I (participants with pulmonary hypertension but without resulting limitation of physical activity), II (participants with pulmonary hypertension resulting in slight limitation of physical activity), III (participants with pulmonary hypertension resulting in marked limitation of physical activity) and IV (participants with pulmonary hypertension with inability to carry out any physical activity without symptoms). Change from baseline in WHO FC was reported. WHO FC was categorized as worsening (change greater than \[\>\] 0); improvement (change less than \[\<\] 0); or no change (change equals to \[=\] 0).
