Descriptive Information

Brief Title  ICMJEOpen-label Study Providing Monotherapy (Sitaxsentan) and Combination Therapy (Sitaxsentan+Sildenafil) to Subjects With PAH to Assess Long-term Safety
Official Title  ICMJEA Phase 3, Multi-Center, Open Label Study To Evaluate The Long-Term Safety Of Monotherapy Sitaxsentan Sodium And Combination Therapy With Sitaxsentan Sodium And Sildenafil Citrate In Subjects With Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension.
Brief Summary

As sitaxsentan is the agent most highly selective for ETA (Endothelin Type A (receptor)), and does not significantly impact sildenafil pharmacokinetics the combination of most promise for PAH therapy is these two oral drugs administered in combination.
