چکیده

Stimulators of soluble guanylate cyclase (sCG) are novel pharmacological agents that directly stimulate sGC. Ongoing research on sGC stimulators led to the development of the more potent and more specific sGC stimulator, riociguat. Recently, the US Food and Drug Administration has approved riociguat to treat pulmonary arterial hypertension in adults. Support for the approval of riociguat comes from the recently published PATENT-1 (Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension Soluble Guanylate Cyclase-Stimulator Trial 1) study.

PATENT PLUS: a blinded, randomised and extension study of riociguat plus sildenafil in PAH

PATENT PLUS evaluated the safety and efficacy of riociguat in combination with sildenafil in pulmonary arterial hypertension patients. Patients receiving sildenafil (20 mg three times daily) were randomised to placebo or riociguat (up to 2.5 mg three times daily) for 12 weeks. The primary outcome was maximum change in supine systolic blood pressure (SBP) from baseline within 4 h of dosing. Seco...
