Lead Sponsor:

University Hospital, Strasbourg, France

Conditions:

Pre-capillary Pulmonary Hypertension

Eligibility:

All Genders

18+ years

Brief Summary

This study aims to understand how blood cell (including peripheral blood mononuclear cells ((PBMCs) or platelets) function and oxidative stress can help physicians detect and predict the course of pre...

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Adult patients (≥18 years) diagnosed with pre-capillary pulmonary hypertension confirmed by right heart catheterization
  • Patients classified according to the international clinical classification:
  • Group 1: Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH)
  • Group 3: Pulmonary hypertension associated with chronic respiratory diseases and/or hypoxia
  • Group 4: Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH)
  • Patients scheduled for routine clinical follow-up and/or right heart catheterization at the study center.
  • Ability and willingness to provide informed consent for participation and data analysis.

Exclusion

  • Postcapillary pulmonary hypertension (pulmonary arterial wedge pressure \>15 mmHg).
  • Conditions precluding safe blood sampling (e.g., severe anemia, coagulopathy).
  • Patients already enrolled in interventional clinical trials that could interfere with mitochondrial or oxidative stress measurements
  • Patients unable or unwilling to provide informed consent
  • Pregnancy or breastfeeding
