High Blood Pressure clinical trials at UC Davis

Study ROR-PH-303, ADVANCE EXTENSION, is an open-label extension (OLE) study for participants with WHO Group 1 PAH who have participated in another Phase 2 or Phase 3 study of ralinepag.

Study ROR-PH-301, ADVANCE OUTCOMES, is designed to assess the efficacy and safety of ralinepag when added to pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) standard of care or PAH-specific background therapy in subjects with World Health Organization (WHO) Group 1 PAH.

This is a two-part (Phase 2/Phase 3) study of frespaciguat, an inhaled soluble guanylate cyclase stimulator, in participants with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). The first part (Phase 2) will assess three different doses of frespaciguat compared to placebo in a base period of 12 weeks, followed by comparison of three different doses of frespaciguat during an optional 40 month extension period. The treatment dose with the best efficacy and safety profile in the phase 2 cohort base period will be selected for use in the second part (Phase 3) of the study. The primary hypothesis of Phase 2 is that at least one frespaciguat dose is superior to placebo in reducing pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) from baseline at week 12. The purpose of the second part (Phase 3) of the study is to confirm the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of frespaciguat at the selected dose compared to placebo during a 12 week base period followed by an extension period of up to 5 years. The primary hypothesis of Phase 3 is that frespaciguat is superior to placebo in increasing 6-minute walk distance (6MWD) from baseline at week 12. Due to sponsor's decision this phase/part was not conducted.

The purpose of this study is to refine the classification of the effectiveness of the DASH diet for outpatient heart failure (HF) management, using behavioral, clinical, and laboratory correlative science approaches.

The objectives of this study are to evaluate the safety of RT234 and the effects of RT234 on exercise capacity as assessed by Cardiopulmonary Exercise Testing (CPET) and six minute walk testing (6MWT) as well as exertional symptoms in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH).

The goal of this study is to understand if SLT performed at low energy is as effective as SLT performed at standard energy, and also to see if repeating SLT at low energy once a year will prevent or delay the need for daily eye drop medications better than waiting for SLT to wear off before repeating it.
