Brief Summary:
The aim of this open-label (OL) trial is to study the long-term use of macitentan for up to 2 years in Fontan-palliated adult and adolescent patients beyond the 52 weeks of treatment in the parent RUBATO double-blind (DB) study (AC-055H301, NCT03153137). This OL trial studies the long-term effect of macitentan in Fontan-palliated patients as it is not known if the effect of macitentan is sustained beyond 52 weeks (end of the parent RUBATO DB study). In addition, the trial also studies the long-term safety of macitentan as this is also unknown. Furthermore, the opportunity will be given to patients who were on placebo in the parent RUBATO DB study to receive macitentan 10 mg and benefit from a potentially active treatment.

Study Type : Interventional  (Clinical Trial)
Actual Enrollment : 112 participants
Allocation: N/A
Intervention Model: Single Group Assignment
Intervention Model Description: The study is designed as an open-label (OL), single-arm, multicenter long-term trial in which all adolescent (≥ 12 years) and adult male and female subjects who had previously completed in the parent RUBATO DB study (AC-055H301, NCT03153137) will enroll. The primary objective of the study is to assess the long-term safety and tolerability of macitentan. All efficacy endpoints including the ones listed below are considered as exploratory in nature.
Masking: None (Open Label)
Primary Purpose: Treatment
Official Title: Prospective, Multi-center, Single-arm, Open-label Long-term Study Assessing the Safety, Tolerability, and Effectiveness of Macitentan in Fontan-palliated Adult and Adolescent Subjects
Actual Study Start Date : April 11, 2019
Actual Primary Completion Date : January 18, 2022
Actual Study Completion Date : January 18, 2022

Outcome Measures
Go to 
Top of Page Study Description Study Design Arms and Interventions Outcome Measures Eligibility Criteria Contacts and Locations More Information

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Frequency of treatment-emergent adverse events (AEs), serious AEs and AEs leading to death [ Time Frame: From Enrollment to End-of-Study visit (Week 104 + 30 days safety follow-up) ]
    Treatment-emergent AEs and SAEs are captured up to 30 days after OL treatment discontinuation (End-of-Treatment visit). A treatment-emergent AE is any AE temporally associated with the use of study treatment (from OL treatment initiation until 30 days after OL treatment discontinuation) whether or not considered by the investigator as related to study treatment.

  2. Number of AEs leading to premature discontinuation of study treatment [ Time Frame: From Enrollment to End-of-Treatment visit (Week 104) ]
    Number of subjects with an AE assessed by the investigator as leading to discontinuation of study treatment.

  3. Frequency of treatment-emergent marked laboratory abnormalities up to 30 days after study treatment discontinuation [ Time Frame: From Enrollment to End-of-Study visit (Week 104 + 30 days safety follow-up) ]
    Laboratory abnormalities are laboratory values below of above the normal range. The definitions of marked abnormal values are based mainly on the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE).

  4. Incident rate of changes in laboratory parameters over time [ Time Frame: From Enrollment to End-of-Study visit (Week 104 + 30 days safety follow-up) ]
    Laboratory parameters (hematology, clinical chemistry) are assessed at every visit from baseline (enrollment) to End-of-Study visit.

  5. Change in pulse rate (PR) over time [ Time Frame: From Enrollment to End-of-Treatment visit (Week 104) ]
    PR will be assessed at all scheduled visits from baseline (enrollment) to End-of-Treatment visit.

  6. Change in peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO2) over time [ Time Frame: From Enrollment to End-of-Treatment visit (Week 104) ]
    SpO2 will be assessed at all scheduled visits from baseline (enrollment) to End-of-Treatment visit.

  7. Change in blood pressure (BP) over time [ Time Frame: From Enrollment to End-of-Treatment visit (Week 104) ]
    Systolic and diastolic blood pressure will be assessed at all scheduled visits from baseline (enrollment) to End-of-Treatment visit.


Other Outcome Measures:
  1. Change from baseline in peak oxygen uptake (VO2) [ Time Frame: From Enrollment to End-of-Treatment visit (Week 104) ]
    Peak VO2 is measured from baseline to each scheduled time point to assess the effect of macitentan on exercise capacity.

  2. Change from baseline in mean count per minute of daily physical activity measured by accelerometer (PA-Ac) [ Time Frame: From Enrollment to End-of-Treatment visit (Week 104) ]
    The daily physical activity (counts/min) of the subject is assessed via accelerometer during daytime. The mean count per minute of daily PA-Ac will be measured from baseline to each scheduled time point.
