Effects of Sildenafil tablets on Hemodynamic Measures Patients on all sildenafil tablets doses achieved a statistically significant reduction in mean pulmonary arterial pressure (mPAP) compared to those on placebo in a study with no background vasodilators [ Study 1 in Clinical Studies (14)]. In another study evaluating lower doses of sildenafil 1 mg, 5 mg and 20 mg [ Study 3 in Clinical Studies (14)] , there were no significant differences in the effects on hemodynamic variables between doses. An evaluation of visual function at doses up to 200 mg revealed no effects of sildenafil tablets on visual acuity, intraocular pressure, or pupillometry.

Sildenafil tablets is rapidly absorbed after oral administration, with a mean absolute bioavailability of 41% (25–63%). In patients with PAH, the average steady-state concentrations were 20–50% higher when compared to those of healthy volunteers.
Healthy elderly volunteers (65 years or over) had a reduced clearance of sildenafil, resulting in approximately 84% and 107% higher plasma concentrations of sildenafil and its active N-desmethyl metabolite, respectively, compared to those seen in healthy younger volunteers (18–45 years). In volunteers with mild (CLcr = 50–80 mL/min) and moderate (CLcr = 30–49 mL/min) renal impairment, the pharmacokinetics of a single oral dose of sildenafil (50 mg) was not altered. In addition, N-desmethyl metabolite AUC and C maxvalues were significantly increased 200 % and 79 %, respectively, in subjects with severe renal impairment compared to subjects with normal renal function. Effects of Other Drugs on Sildenafil Pharmacokinetics Figure 8 Effects of Sildenafil on Other Drugs Population pharmacokinetic analysis of data from patients in clinical trails indicated an approximately 30% reduction in sildenafil clearance when it was co-administered with mild/moderate CYP3A inhibitors and an approximately 34% reductions in sildenafil clearance when co-administered with beta-blockers. Population pharmacokinetic analysis of data from patients in clinical trials indicated an approximately 3-fold the sildenafil clearance when it was co-administered with mild CYP3A inducers. Sildenafil tablets is rapidly absorbed after oral administration, with a mean absolute bioavailability of 41% (25–63%).

CLINICAL STUDIES Studies of Adults with Pulmonary Arterial HypertensionStudy 1 (Sildenafil tablets monotherapy (20 mg, 40 mg, and 80 mg three times a day))A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of sildenafil tablets (Study 1) was conducted in 277 patients with PAH (defined as a mean pulmonary artery pressure of greater than or equal to 25 mmHg at rest with a pulmonary capillary wedge pressure less than 15 mmHg).
Patients were predominantly World Health Organization (WHO) buy sildenafil online uk functional classes II–III. Patients with left ventricular ejection fraction less than 45% or left ventricular shortening fraction less than 0.2 also were not studied.Patients were randomized to receive placebo (n=70) or sildenafil tablets, 20 mg (n = 69), 40 mg (n = 67) or 80 mg (n = 71) three times a day for a period of 12 weeks. The study population consisted of 25% men and 75% women with a mean age of 49 years (range: 18–81 years) and baseline 6-minute walk distance between 100 and 450 meters (mean 343).The primary efficacy endpoint was the change from baseline at week 12 (at least 4 hours after the last dose) in the 6-minute walk distance. Placebo-corrected mean increases in walk distance of 45–50 meters were observed with all doses of sildenafil tablets. These increases were significantly different from placebo, but the sildenafil tablets dose groups were not different from each other (see Figure 9), indicating no additional clinical benefit from doses higher than 20 mg three times a day. Population pharmacokinetic analysis of data from patients in clinical trials indicated an approximately 3-fold the sildenafil clearance when it was co-administered with mild CYP3A inducers.

Change from Baseline in 6-Minute Walk Distance (meters) at Weeks 4, 8, and 12 in Study 1: Mean (95% Confidence Interval)Figure 10 displays subgroup efficacy analyses in Study 1 for the change from baseline in 6-Minute Walk Distance at Week 12 including baseline walk distance, disease etiology, functional class, gender, age and hemodynamic parameters.Figure 10. Placebo-Corrected Change From Baseline in 6-Minute Walk Distance (meters) at Week 12 by study subpopulation in Study 1: Mean (95% Confidence Interval)Key:PAH = pulmonary arterial hypertension; CTD = connective tissue disease; PH = pulmonary hypertension; PAP = pulmonary arterial pressure; PVRI = pulmonary vascular resistance index; TID = three times daily.Of the 277 treated patients, 259 entered a long-term, uncontrolled extension study. Additionally, walk distance and functional class status appeared to be stable in patients taking sildenafil tablets. Without a control group, these data must be interpreted cautiously.Study 2 (Sildenafil tablets co-administered with epoprostenol)A randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled study (Study 2) was conducted in 267 patients with PAH who were taking stable doses of intravenous epoprostenol. Patients were randomized to placebo or sildenafil tablets (in a fixed titration starting from 20 mg, to 40 mg and then 80 mg, three times a day) and all patients continued intravenous epoprostenol therapy.At baseline patients had PPH (80%) or PAH secondary to CTD (20%);WHO functional class I (1%), II (26%), III (67%), or IV (6%); and the mean age was 48 years, 80% were female, and 79% were Caucasian.There was a statistically significant greater increase from baseline in 6-minute walk distance at Week 16 (primary endpoint) for the sildenafil tablets group compared with the placebo group. The mean change from baseline at Week 16 (last observation carried forward) was 30 meters for the sildenafil tablets group compared with 4 meters for the placebo group giving an adjusted treatment difference of 26 meters (95% CI: 10.8, 41.2) (p = 0.0009).Patients on sildenafil tablets achieved a statistically significant reduction in mPAP compared to those on placebo. A mean placebo-corrected treatment effect of -3.9 mmHg was observed in favor of sildenafil tablets (95% CI: -5.7, -2.1) (p = 0.00003).Time to clinical worsening of PAH was defined as the time from randomization to the first occurrence of a clinical worsening event (death, lung transplantation, initiation of bosentan therapy, or clinical deterioration requiring a change in epoprostenol therapy). Kaplan-Meier estimates and a stratified log-rank test demonstrated that placebo-treated patients were 3 times more likely to experience a clinical worsening event than the sildenafil tablets-treated patients and that sildenafil tablets-treated patients experienced a significant delay in time to clinical worsening versus placebo-treated patients (p = 0.0074). Kaplan-Meier sildenafil tablets 125 plot of time to clinical worsening is presented in Figure 11.Figure 11.

More than twice as many sildenafil tablets-treated patients (36%) as the placebo-treated patients (14%) showed an improvement in at least one functional New York Heart Association (NYHA) class for PAH.Study 3 (Sildenafil tablets monotherapy (1 mg, 5 mg, and 20 mg three times a day))A randomized, double-blind, parallel dose study (Study 3) was planned in 219 patients with PAH.
This study was prematurely terminated with 129 subjects enrolled. Patients were required to have a mPAP greater than or equal to 25 mmHg and a PCWP less than or equal to 15 mmHg at rest via right heart catheterization within 12 weeks before randomization, and a baseline 6-minute walk test distance greater than or equal to 100 meters and less than or equal to 450 meters (mean 345 meters).
Patients were randomized to 1 of 3 doses of Sildenafil tablets: 1 mg, 5 mg, and 20 mg, three times a day.At baseline patients had PPH (74%) or secondary PAH (26%); WHO functional class II (57%), III (41%), or IV (2%); the mean age was 44 years; and 67% were female. The majority of subjects were Asian (67%), and 28% were Caucasian.The primary efficacy endpoint was the change from baseline at Week 12 (at least 4 hours after the last dose) in the 6-minute walk distance.
Similar increases in walk distance (mean increase of 38-41 meters) were observed in the 5 and 20 mg dose groups. These increases were significantly better than those observed in the 1 mg dose group (Figure 12).Figure 12.
