ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryNumber of Participants With Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH) Who Completed the Phase II NCT00046319 Study and Who Experienced Severe Adverse Events (AEs) During Long-term Ambrisentan ExposureWeek 24 (AMB-220-E baseline) to Week 334
The number of participants in the AMB-220-E analysis set who experienced AEs (including serious AEs) of severe severity (ie, made it impossible to perform routine activities and the subject may have experienced intolerable discomfort or pain) that began after entering AMB-220-E (treatment-emergent AEs) and that occurred in more than 1 participant are summarized by dose group. The AMB-220-E analysis set consisted of all participants who received at least 1 dose of study drug during the AMB-220-E study.
PrimaryNumber of Participants With PAH Who Completed the Phase II NCT00046319 Study and Who Experienced AEs of Moderate Severity During Long-term Ambrisentan ExposureWeek 24 (AMB-220-E baseline) to Week 329.3
The number of participants in the AMB-220-E analysis set who experienced AEs (including serious AEs) of moderate severity (ie, interfered with routine activities and subject may have experienced significant discomfort) that began after entering AMB-220-E (treatment-emergent AEs) and that occurred in more than 1 participant are summarized by dose group. The AMB-220-E analysis set consisted of all participants who received at least 1 dose of study drug during the AMB-220-E study.
PrimaryNumber of Participants With PAH Who Completed the Phase II NCT00046319 Study and Who Experienced AEs of Mild Severity During Long-term Ambrisentan ExposureWeek 24 (AMB-220-E baseline) to Week 329.3
The number of participants in the AMB-220-E analysis set who experienced AEs (including serious AEs) of mild severity (ie, did not interfere with routine activities and the subject may have experienced slight discomfort) that began after entering AMB-220-E (treatment-emergent AEs) and that occurred in more than 1 participant are summarized by dose group. The AMB-220-E analysis set consisted of all participants who received at least 1 dose of study drug during the AMB-220-E study.
