Official Title  ICMJEA Phase 3, Multi-Center, Randomized, Double-Blind, Efficacy And Safety Study Of Monotherapy Sitaxsentan Sodium Versus Combination Therapy With Sitaxsentan Sodium And Sildenafil Citrate In Subjects With Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension Who Have Completed Study B1321001.
Brief Summary

As monotherapy for PAH begins to fail additional therapies are introduced. although co-administration of sitaxsentan and sildenafil is wel tolerated the controlled safety/efficacy database of the combination is limited.
