Johnson & Johnson’s Opsynvi (macitentan and tadalafil) Receives the US FDA’s Approval for the Treatment of Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension

Shots:

  • The approval was based on the results from the P-III (A DUE) clinical trial evaluating the safety & efficacy of Opsynvi vs macitentan/tadalafil monotx. in patients with PAH (WHO FC II or III). The 1EP was a change from baseline in Pulmonary Vascular Resistance (PVR) at 16wks.
  • The study depicted a greater reduction in PVR at 16wks. with Opsynvi vs macitentan/tadalafil monotx. The trial thereby met its co-primary endpoints by depicting a significant pulmonary hemodynamic improvement
  • Opsynvi is a combination of macitentan (endothelin receptor antagonist) & tadalafil (phosphodiesterase 5 (PDE5) inhibitor)
