Study Summary

This study assesses the safety and efficacy of bardoxolone methyl relative to placebo in patients with pulmonary hypertension to determine the recommended dose range, evaluate the change from baseline in 6-minute walk distance (6MWD) and determine the effect of Bardoxolone methyl in pulmonary hypertension associated with connective tissue disease, interstitial lung disease, and idiopathic etiologies, including subsets of patients with WHO Group III or WHO Group V PH following 16 weeks of study participation.

Primary Outcome

Overall treatment effect in exercise capacity, as measured by the total distance walked in 6 minutes (6MWD) mean change from baseline though Week 16. A lower 6MWD reflects greater severity thus, a positive change from baseline suggests an improvement.

Interventions

  • DRUG Placebo
  • DRUG Bardoxolone methyl
