ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryEvaluation of the Reliability and the Construct Validity of the Cardiopulmonary Symptoms Domain of the PAH-SYMPACTFrom Screening Visit (Visit 1) to End of Treatment (EOT) Visit (Visit 4, Week 16)
The Cardiopulmonary Symptoms domain consists of 6 items reported on a 5-point Likert scale (from 0 to 4). The value 0 means "no symptom" and value 4 corresponds to "very severe symptoms".The symptoms part of the PAH-SYMPACT was administered daily over a 7 day period. The recall period of symptom items is the last 24 hours. An average Cardiopulmonary Symptoms domain score is determined based on the daily scores of the 6 items. It was administered two times (daily during 7 days each time) prior to administration of Macitentan (Visit 2, Baseline) and daily during the 7-day period in the treatment period prior to Visit 3 (Week 8) and Visit 4 (Week 16).
PrimaryEvaluation of the Reliability and the Construct Validity of the Cardiovascular Symptoms Domain of the PAH-SYMPACTFrom Screening Visit (Visit 1) to End of Treatment (EOT) Visit (Visit 4, Week 16)
The Cardiovascular Symptoms domain consists of 5 items reported on a 5-point Likert scale (from 0 to 4). The value 0 corresponds to "no symptoms" and value 4 corresponds to "very severe symptoms". The symptoms part of the PAH-SYMPACT was administered daily over a 7 day period. The recall period of symptom items is the last 24 hours. An average Cardiovascular Symptoms domain score is determined based on the daily scores of the 5 items. It was administered two times (daily during 7 days each time) prior to administration of Macitentan (Visit 2, Baseline) and daily during the 7-day period in the treatment period prior to Visit 3 (Week 8) and Visit 4 (Week 16).
PrimaryEvaluation of the Reliability and the Construct Validity of the Physical Impacts Domain of the PAH-SYMPACTFrom Screening Visit (Visit 1) to End of Treatment (EOT) Visit (Visit 4, Week 16)
The Physical Impacts domain consists of 7 items reported on a 5-point Likert scale (from 0 to 4). The value 0 corresponds to "not at all"/"with no difficulty at all" and value 4 corresponds to "very much"/"extremely"/ "not able at all". The impacts part of the PAH-SYMACT was administered on Day 7 of the symptoms part administration. Items in the impact part have a 7 day recall period. An average Physical Impacts domain score is determined based on the 7 items in the domain. It was administered two times prior to administration of Macitentan (Visit 2, Baseline) and during the 7-day period in the treatment period prior to Visit 3 (Week 8) and Visit 4 (Week 16).
PrimaryEvaluation of the Reliability and the Construct Validity of the Cognitive/Emotional Impacts Domain of the PAH-SYMPACTFrom Screening Visit (Visit 1) to End of Treatment (EOT) Visit (Visit 4, Week 16)
The Cognitive/Emotional Impacts domain consists of 4 items reported on a 5-point Likert scale (from 0 to 4). The value 0 corresponds to "not at all"/"with no difficulty at all" and value 4 corresponds to "very much"/"extremely"/ "not able at all". The impacts part of the PAH-SYMACT was administered on Day 7 of the symptoms part administration. Items in the impact part have a 7 day recall period. An average Cognitive/Emotional Impacts domain score is determined based on the 4 items in the domain. It was administered two times prior to administration of Macitentan (Visit 2, Baseline) and during the 7-day period in the treatment period prior to Visit 3 (Week 8) and Visit 4 (Week 16)."
