Effect of Macitentan in Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension and the Relationship Between Echocardiography and cMRI Variables: REPAIR Echocardiography Sub-study Results

ConclusionsA good relationship between relevant echo and cMRI parameters was shown. Improvements in RV structure and function with macitentan treatment was observed by echo, consistent with results observed by cMRI in the primary analysis of the REPAIR study. Echo is a valuable complementary method to cMRI, with the potential to non-invasively monitor treatment response at follow-up.Trial registration numberREPAIR NCT02310672.Graphical Abstract
