Four-Strata Risk Assessment in Patients with Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension Treated with Selexipag in Real-World Settings (EXPOSURE Study)
Advances in Therapy(2024)
Abstract
Risk assessment can aid management of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) and clinical decision-making. This analysis describes characteristics, treatment patterns and outcomes of patients with PAH, categorised by risk status at time of treatment escalation with selexipag in clinical settings. Patients initiating selexipag in the ongoing multicentre, prospective EXPOSURE (EUPAS19085) study were grouped as low, intermediate-low, intermediate-high or high risk of 1-year mortality according to the ESC/ERS 4-strata method. As of November 2022, 77 Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a disease that gets worse over time. To make decisions about treatment, we need to know the stage of the disease. We can do this by measuring the patient’s risk of death during the next few years. Selexipag is a medication for PAH. This analysis included patients living in Europe and Canada who started treatment with selexipag for their PAH disease. Our findings suggest that the monitoring of patients’ health and the timing of starting selexipag can be improved. This analysis includes 698 patients taking part in the EXPOSURE study (EUPAS19085), which looks at the real-life treatment of patients with PAH. Overall, 71
