Recruiting PHASE2 Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension

New treatment option for Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension

Official title A Trial of "APL-9796'' in Adults With Pulmonary Hypertension

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06846554

What this study is testing

What is APL-9796?

APL-9796 is an investigational medicine, given as an injection under the skin, being studied as a potential treatment for pulmonary arterial hypertension.

Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.

What it's testing
The AP13CP02 study is a phase 2, open-label, dose escalation trial to determine how safe and tolerable multiple subcutaneous (SC) injections of APL-9796 are for patients with PH. The study will also assess how effective APL-9796 could be for treating patients with PH and whether the body produces antibodies working against APL-9796.
