Official title
Compassionate Use of Beraprost Sodium 314d Modified Release (BPS-314d-MR) for Three Patients With Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH).
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The purpose of this study is to see if Lung LLC's new experimental formulation of the medicine Beraprost Sodium, called Beraprost Sodium 314d Modified Release (BPS-314d-MR), can improve the symptoms of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) in patients. An experimental drug is one that has not been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for use in the general public. This research study is for patients who have pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) and have just completed taking part in an earlier research study and received an older experimental formulation of Beraprost Sodium, called Beraprost Sodium Modified Release (BPS-MR). That earlier study was being done to see if BPS-MR could improve their PAH. Patients may also be taking Tyvaso (treprostinil), Tracleer (bosentan), Letairis (ambrisentan), Adcirca (tadalafil) and/or Viagra or Revatio (sildenafil) to treat their PAH. The diagnosis of PAH means that the blood pressure in their lungs is higher than normal. The increased blood pressure in the lungs places a strain on the heart. The strain causes the heart to pump less blood into the lungs, causing shortness of breath and tiredness. The strain on the heart weakens the heart muscle making it less able to pump blood, a condition called heart failure. As heart failure develops, swelling in the feet and abdomen may occur.
