Trial Review

Please note the ANZCTR will be unattended from Friday 20 December 2024 for the holidays. The Registry will re-open on Tuesday 7 January 2025. Submissions and updates will not be processed during that time.

Registering a new trial?

To achieve prospective registration, we recommend submitting your trial for registration at the same time as ethics submission.

The safety and scientific validity of this study is the responsibility of the study sponsor and investigators. Listing a study does not mean it has been endorsed by the ANZCTR. Before participating in a study, talk to your health care provider and refer to this information for consumers

6. 6-minute walk distance (6MWD) = 150 m during screening
7. For patients treated with oral diuretics, treatment dose must have been stable at least 1 month prior to RHC during the screening period
8. For patients treated with phosphodiesterase type-5 (PDE-5) inhibitors, treatment dose must have been stable at least 3 months prior to RHC during the screening period
9. For patients treated with beta blockers, treatment dose must have been stable at least 1 month prior to the RHC during the screening period
10. Men or women =18 and < 65 years
11. Women of childbearing potential (defined in protocol) must:

* Have a negative serum pregnancy test during screening and a negative urine pregnancy test on Day 1, and
