from which evidence-based therapeutic algorithms in PAH have been developed&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0010"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span></a> In most of these trials&#44; the change in distance covered in the 6-minute walking test &#40;6MWT&#41; was used as the primary endpoint&#46; This variable provides information on the patient&#39;s symptoms and ability to perform daily activities&#44; and is a predictor of mortality&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0015"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">3</span></a> The 6MWT is a simple&#44; low-cost&#44; reproducible test that is widely available&#46;</p><p id="par0015" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">However&#44; 6MWT also has its limitations&#46; Firstly&#44; the change in distance walked is influenced by the baseline value and presence of comorbidities&#44; and a &#8220;ceiling&#8221; effect has been observed&#44;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0020"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">4</span></a> that is to say&#44; the distance achieved in the initial months does not increase even if treatment is continued&#46; Secondly&#44; the test is not particularly sensitive to the effect of starting a new drug in patients already under treatment&#46; Thirdly and more importantly&#44; there is no correlation between changes in the 6MWT seen in the early months and long-term mortality&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0025"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">5</span></a></p><p id="par0020" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">This critical analysis of the 6MWT as a primary endpoint in PAH clinical trials led to the proposal raised in the Fourth World Symposium on Pulmonary Hypertension &#40;Dana-Point&#44;

the use of time to clinical worsening was suggested as a primary endpoint&#46; This is a composite endpoint that includes all-cause mortality&#44; unscheduled hospitalization due to PAH&#44; and clinical progression&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0030"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">6</span></a></p><p id="par0025" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The Dana-Point proposal has been taken up in the designing of several clinical trials&#44;

The primary endpoint was time from start of treatment to the first PAH-related clinical event or all-cause mortality&#46; PAH-related events were transplantation&#44; atrial septostomy&#44; initiation of intravenous prostanoids or clinical worsening&#8211;worsening of 6MWT or symptoms or need for a new treatment&#46; Mean study duration was 85&#8211;104 weeks&#44; depending on the groups&#46; The study showed that&#44; compared to placebo&#44; macitentan reduced the risk of a PAH-related event&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0035"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">7</span></a> In most cases the first event was worsening of PAH&#46; In previously untreated patients&#44; a significant treatment effect was observed with the 2 study doses&#44; while in patients who were already receiving treatment the effect was only significant for the higher dose&#46; The effect of macitentan on death or PAH-related hospitalization was also analyzed as a secondary endpoint&#46; The risk diminished significantly with both dose levels&#46; However&#44; the main component of this endpoint was PAH-related hospitalization&#44; while the effect on death as a first event was not significant&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0035"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">7</span></a> This finding stems from the fact that death is not usually the first event to occur&#59;

in PAH&#46; This agent has previously been used in the treatment of chronic myeloid leukemia&#46; The findings show that while imatinib improved exercise capacity and pulmonary hemodynamics in patients with advanced PAH already receiving combined treatment&#44; the active treatment group developed significant adverse events&#44; primarily subdural hematoma&#46; For this reason&#44; application for approval of imatinib in PAH has been withdrawn&#46; Ghofrani et al&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0045"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">9&#44;10</span></a> evaluated the effect of the soluble guanylate cyclase stimulator &#40;sGC&#41;

increasing intracellular levels of cyclic guanosine monophosphate&#44; producing a vasodilatory effect&#46; Riociguat increased exercise capacity in both HAP and CTEPH patients&#46; For this reason&#44; riociguat was the first drug to receive approval in Europe for the indication of inoperable CTEPH or persistent CTEPH after pulmonary endarterectomy&#46; Time to clinical worsening was also evaluated in these studies&#44;

and 18 years after the publication of the first controlled clinical trial it is safe to say that it has finally come of age&#46; Modern clinical trial designs are clearly oriented toward evaluating morbidity and mortality in a large patient population&#44; follow-up periods are extensive&#44; and new therapeutic routes&#44; indications and treatment strategies are under investigation&#46; This new generation of trials is providing data of great clinical importance&#44;

was published 18 years ago&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0005"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">1</span></a> This trial was the first in a series of controlled clinical trials which subsequently defined the current therapeutic approach to this devastating disease&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0010"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span></a> That these outstanding advances could be achieved in such a short period of time is the result of basic researchers and clinicians&#44; pharmaceutical companies and regulatory agencies joining forces in the rapid &#8220;translation&#8221; of laboratory concepts into clinical practice&#46;</p><p id="par0010" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Data are now available from over 30 controlled clinical trials and several meta-analyses&#44; from which evidence-based therapeutic algorithms in PAH have been developed&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0010"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span></a> In most of these trials&#44; the change in distance covered in the 6-minute walking test &#40;6MWT&#41; was used as the primary endpoint&#46; This variable provides information on the patient&#39;s symptoms and ability to perform daily activities&#44; and is a predictor of mortality&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0015"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">3</span></a> The 6MWT is a simple&#44; low-cost&#44; reproducible test that is widely available&#46;</p><p id="par0015" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">However&#44; 6MWT also has its limitations&#46; Firstly&#44; the change in distance walked is influenced by the baseline value and presence of comorbidities&#44; and a &#8220;ceiling&#8221; effect has been observed&#44;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0020"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">4</span></a> that is to say&#44; the distance achieved in the initial months does not increase even if treatment is continued&#46; Secondly&#44; the test is not particularly sensitive to the effect of starting a new drug in patients already under treatment&#46; Thirdly and more importantly&#44; there is no correlation between changes in the 6MWT seen in the early months and long-term mortality&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0025"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">5</span></a></p><p id="par0020" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">This critical analysis of the 6MWT as a primary endpoint in PAH clinical trials led to the proposal raised in the Fourth World Symposium on Pulmonary Hypertension &#40;Dana-Point&#44;

the use of time to clinical worsening was suggested as a primary endpoint&#46; This is a composite endpoint that includes all-cause mortality&#44; unscheduled hospitalization due to PAH&#44; and clinical progression&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0030"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">6</span></a></p><p id="par0025" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The Dana-Point proposal has been taken up in the designing of several clinical trials&#44;

The primary endpoint was time from start of treatment to the first PAH-related clinical event or all-cause mortality&#46; PAH-related events were transplantation&#44; atrial septostomy&#44; initiation of intravenous prostanoids or clinical worsening&#8211;worsening of 6MWT or symptoms or need for a new treatment&#46; Mean study duration was 85&#8211;104 weeks&#44; depending on the groups&#46; The study showed that&#44; compared to placebo&#44; macitentan reduced the risk of a PAH-related event&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0035"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">7</span></a> In most cases the first event was worsening of PAH&#46; In previously untreated patients&#44; a significant treatment effect was observed with the 2 study doses&#44; while in patients who were already receiving treatment the effect was only significant for the higher dose&#46; The effect of macitentan on death or PAH-related hospitalization was also analyzed as a secondary endpoint&#46; The risk diminished significantly with both dose levels&#46; However&#44; the main component of this endpoint was PAH-related hospitalization&#44; while the effect on death as a first event was not significant&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0035"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">7</span></a> This finding stems from the fact that death is not usually the first event to occur&#59; it is more common that hospitalization due to clinical worsening precedes death&#46;</p><p id="par0030" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The SERAPHIN trial is the first of a new generation of PAH trials featuring a more robust design and endpoints of clinical interest&#46;

in PAH&#46; This agent has previously been used in the treatment of chronic myeloid leukemia&#46; The findings show that while imatinib improved exercise capacity and pulmonary hemodynamics in patients with advanced PAH already receiving combined treatment&#44; the active treatment group developed significant adverse events&#44; primarily subdural hematoma&#46; For this reason&#44; application for approval of imatinib in PAH has been withdrawn&#46; Ghofrani et al&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0045"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">9&#44;10</span></a> evaluated the effect of the soluble guanylate cyclase stimulator &#40;sGC&#41;

increasing intracellular levels of cyclic guanosine monophosphate&#44; producing a vasodilatory effect&#46; Riociguat increased exercise capacity in both HAP and CTEPH patients&#46; For this reason&#44; riociguat was the first drug to receive approval in Europe for the indication of inoperable CTEPH or persistent CTEPH after pulmonary endarterectomy&#46; Time to clinical worsening was also evaluated in these studies&#44;

and 18 years after the publication of the first controlled clinical trial it is safe to say that it has finally come of age&#46; Modern clinical trial designs are clearly oriented toward evaluating morbidity and mortality in a large patient population&#44; follow-up periods are extensive&#44; and new therapeutic routes&#44; indications and treatment strategies are under investigation&#46; This new generation of trials is providing data of great clinical importance&#44;
