5 5 Ambrisentan, continued Oral formulations: Tablet 5 mg, 10 mg Administration Swallow tablet whole; do not split, crush, or chew tablet Advantages Once daily dosing No drug interaction with PDE-5 inhibitors or warfarin observed Improved safety profile for liver toxicity Macitentan (Opsumit), 2013 Non-selective antagonist: ET-A, ET-B FDA approval 2013 Modified bosentan structure for improved efficacy, safety profile and bioavailability Required labs: monthly pregnancy; blood count and hepatic panel at intervals Takatsuki S, et al.

6 6 Playing well with others: ERA combo therapies Does it make a difference? Combination therapy strategies tested in randomized controlled clinical trials Humbert M, Ghofrani, HA. Thorax 2016;71:73-83 Slide provided by Bruce Neale, PharmD Page 21 Bosentan Trials: STEP STEP Data RCT, double-blind trial Inhaled iloprost added to stable monotherapy with bosentan P = iloprost + bosentan group vs placebo Efficacy endpoints: 6MWD, FC, hemodynamics, time to clinical worsening McLaughlin et al. AJRCCM Page 22 McLaughlin et al. AJRCCM Page 23
7 7 Ambrisentan Trials: AMBITION Event-driven, double blind RCT Naïve PAH, WHO FC II-III to receive ambrisentan monotherapy, tadalafil monotherapy, or ambrisentan + tadalafil combination therapy; upfront combination therapy Primary endpoint: first event of clinical failure (death, hospitalization, disease progression, long-term clinical response) Combination group: improved BNP, clinical response, 6MWD Notes No significant differences in WHO FC at week 24 Are results specific to ambrisentan and tadalafil? Study did not allow for crossover in the monotherapy arms AMBITION Participants with No Event (%) Ambrisentan AND Tadalafil N=253 Ambrisentan or Tadalafil N= Galie et al. NEJM 373; (9) Aug 2015 Page 24 Slide provide by Bruce Neale, PharMD N Engl J Med 2015 Weeks Page 25 SERAPHIN Data Patients > 12 yo in RCT, double blind study for WHO Group 1, FC II-IV naïve or on oral/inhaled PH therapies Placebo, 3 mg or 10 mg dose of macitentan for naïve or add-on therapy Reduced clinical worsening compared to placebo for macitentan both doses Pulido et al. NEJM 2013 Page 26 Page 27
8 8 Therapy Meta-analysis Clinical Implications So many choices, so little time! Systematic review and network meta-analysis to examine comparative efficacy and tolerability of pharmacologic interventions for PAH Phase 2/3 RCTs, no true pediatric studies Assessed clinical worsening, hospitalizations, allcause mortality Jain et al Chest 2017 Page 29 Improved FC 25.2% of patients with ERA (RR, 1.56; 95% CI, ) 28.3% of patients with ERA + PDE5i (RR, 1.75; 95% CI, ) Improved 6MWD No combinations met criteria (increase in 33 m) ERA+PDE5i better of the lot Among oral agents, ERA, PDE5i, and ERA + PDE5i: improvement in patient morbidity (both clinical worsening and hospitalization) and functional status. Findings limited by few head-to-head trials and differences in reporting across trials. Page 30 Page 31
9 9 Network Meta-analysis of ERAs Comparison of four ERAs Network meta-analysis: comprehensive viewpoint synthesizing direct and indirect evidence Efficacy outcomes: 6MWD, clinical worsening 10 studies including 2172 patients RCTs in yo WHO Group I, NYHA FC II-IV, no concomitant PH therapies Included bosetan, ambrisentan, macitentan and sitaxsentan Acceptability outcomes: serious adverse events, all-cause discontinuation Duo Ji and Long. Int J Card Jan Page 32 Page 33 Conclusions ERAs are a powerful group of medications All ERAs significantly increased average 6MWD Bosentan and ambrisentan decreased clinical worsening Ambrisentan trended to less discontinuation Well-tolerated in children but more pediatric studies are needed ERAs should be considered as a part of combination therapy Based on current literature, bosentan and ambrisentan may be better ERA options in adults Page 34 Page 35
