Seralutinib

Clinical trials are studying Seralutinib in people with pulmonary arterial hypertension, a serious type of high blood pressure in the lungs. These studies look at long-term safety, tolerability, and whether Seralutinib can improve exercise ability and other outcomes. The trials include adults with PAH in phase 2 and phase 3 research.

Clinical trials overview

Seralutinib is being studied in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), which is a form of high blood pressure in the arteries of the lungs.[1] The trial data show research in both phase 2 and phase 3 settings, with the goal of learning more about safety, tolerability, and benefit in people with PAH.[1][2][3]

Studies and designs

One phase 3 trial, NCT05934526, is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study in 384 participants.[2] Randomized means people are assigned by chance, double-blind means neither the participants nor the study team know who gets which treatment, and placebo-controlled means the study compares Seralutinib with a look-alike treatment that does not contain the active drug.[2]

This phase 3 study looked at the effect of Seralutinib after 24 weeks when added to background PAH disease-specific medication.[2]

Another phase 3 study, NCT06274801, is an open-label extension study in 343 people.[1] Open-label means both the participants and the study team know what treatment is being given.[1]

The phase 2 study, NCT04816604, includes 91 participants with WHO Group 1 pulmonary hypertension and focuses on long-term safety and tolerability.[3]

Who may participate

The trials are for people with PAH, and one study specifically includes subjects with WHO Group 1 pulmonary hypertension.[1][3] The source data do not give full eligibility details, so the exact rules for joining cannot be listed here.[1][2][3]

All three studies are interventional trials, which means researchers are giving a treatment and then measuring the results.[1][2][3]

What is measured in the trials

The main safety measure in the listed studies is the incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs), which means health problems that start after treatment begins.[1][3]

The phase 3 placebo-controlled study also measured change in distance achieved on the six-minute walk test (6MWT) from baseline to Week 24.[2] This test shows how far a person can walk in six minutes and gives a simple picture of exercise ability.[2]

The phase 3 extension study is designed to evaluate long-term safety and efficacy, meaning whether the treatment remains safe over time and whether it continues to help.[1] The phase 2 study also focuses on long-term safety and tolerability in WHO Group 1 pulmonary hypertension.[3]

Key patient points

  • Seralutinib is being studied as a treatment for PAH, not as a general medicine for all types of high blood pressure.[1][2][3]

  • The current trials include both earlier and later research stages, so the program is looking at safety and possible benefit in different ways.[1][2][3]

  • Some participants are already taking PAH medicines, because one phase 3 trial studied Seralutinib added to background disease-specific treatment.[2]

  • The main outcomes are safety measures and exercise-related results, which are important for understanding daily function in PAH.[1][2][3]

Glossary

  • Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH): A type of high blood pressure that affects the arteries in the lungs. It can make it harder for the heart and lungs to work well.
  • WHO Group 1 pulmonary hypertension: A classification used for one major type of pulmonary hypertension. It helps doctors and researchers group patients with similar disease patterns.
  • Phase 2: A mid-stage clinical trial. It usually looks more closely at safety and early signs of benefit.
  • Phase 3: A later-stage clinical trial. It compares a treatment with placebo or standard care in a larger group of people.
  • Randomized: Participants are placed into treatment groups by chance. This helps make the study fair.
  • Double-blind: Neither the participants nor the study team know who is getting the study treatment or placebo during the trial. This helps reduce bias.
  • Placebo: A treatment that looks like the study drug but does not contain the active drug. It is used to compare results fairly.
  • Interventional study: A study where researchers give a treatment or procedure and then measure the results.
  • Treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs): Health problems that begin or get worse after treatment starts. These are tracked to understand safety.
  • Six-minute walk test (6MWT): A simple test that measures how far a person can walk in six minutes. It helps show exercise ability.
  • Tolerability: How well people can handle a treatment without too many side effects or problems.
  • Background PAH disease-specific medication: Other medicines a person is already taking for PAH while joining the study.
