Study Summary

It is hypothesised that ambrisentan may provide benefit to subjects with inoperable chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH), where currently no proven or licensed treatment options exist. This Phase III, randomized, double-blind placebo controlled parallel group, 16 week study will compare the safety and efficacy of ambrisentan 5 milligrams (mg) versus placebo in subjects with inoperable CTEPH. The study will enrol 160 subjects, to assure at least 72 evaluable subjects per treatment arm, based on 10% drop-out rate.

Primary Outcome

The 6-minute walk test was conducted according to the American Thoracic Society guidelines in accordance with local standard operating procedures. 6MWD was measured by a 6-minute walk test. This test measures the distance that a participant can walk in a period of 6 minutes. Change from baseline was calculated at Weeks 4, 8, 12 and 16. Change from Baseline was calculated as value at the specified visit minus the Baseline value. Data at Baseline is based on average of two consecutive test results
