Bosentan, an oral ET(A)/ET(B) receptor antagonist, is approved for the treatment of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). However, some patients discontinue bosentan because of hepatotoxicity or inadequate efficacy. Sitaxsentan, an oral, ET(A)-selective endothelin antagonist currently under investigation, may be an alternative treatment option. In this study we evaluate the safety and efficacy of sitaxsentan in patients discontinuing bosentan.
