Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension and Chronic Thromboembolic Pulmonary Hypertension are rare and life-threatening diseases. Adempas® has shown to be effective and well tolerated in both indications, in previous controlled studies. Adempas® can be freely prescribed for the treatment of patients with two types of pulmonary hypertension.

In accordance with the regulatory requirements, a registry, the EXPERT registry, has been designed to collect information about the long-term safety of Adempas® in real clinical practice outside the regulated environment of a controlled clinical study. The EXPERT registry is a global, multicenter, prospective, uncontrolled, non-interventional cohort study documenting data from patients with Pulmonary Hypertension treated with Adempas®.

The centre Hospitalier de Luxembourg is involved and CIEC-LIH is actively assisting and supporting physicians involved in this trial. The approximate total number of patients is 900; 4-5 patients in Luxembourg. The study population will consist on patients who have been prescribed Adempas® for a medically appropriate use. Indications and contraindications according to the local market authorization should be considered.
