Assess Safety and Efficacy of VAD044 in HHT Patients

Part I: The purpose of this Phase 1b proof of concept study, randomised, placebo controlled, double blind, multicentre study is to asssess safety and efficacy of 2 doses of VAD044 in adult HHT patients. Part II: The purpose of this open-label extension following the completion of the randomised double blind treatment and follow-up period (Part I of the study) is to assess the long-term safetty, tolerability and efficacy of VAD044 in adult HHT patients.

Efficacy and Tolerance of Treatment With Bevacizumab for Severe Liver Involvement With High Cardiac Output in Hereditary Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia Within the French Hereditary Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia Network

High cardiac output secondary to hepatic arteriovenous malformations may be isolated or associated with left heart failure with post-capillary pulmonary hypertension. More rarely, precapillary pulmonary hypertension develops, linked to obstructive pulmonary arterial remodeling, referred to as pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), which affects younger patients and is not necessarily associated with hepatic arteriovenous malformation. BEVACIZUMAB is an anti-VEGF treatment indicated under compassionate use guidelines for hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia in cases of symptomatic hepatic arteriovenous malformations, when complicated by isolated high cardiac output or post-capillary pulmonary hypertension, and in cases of refractory chronic bleeding. However, the efficacy of this treatment on pulmonary hypertension related to high cardiac output, isolated or associated with left heart failure, is poorly understood. In addition, this treatment is classified as a "possible association" for the development of PAH, according to the 7th World Congress Symposium on Pulmonary Hypertension. Indeed, Hlavaty et al. found, based on pharmacovigilance data and by searching for disproportionate effects using the Bayesian network method, a possible link between the use of BEVACIZUMAB and the development of PAH. This treatment is therefore not recommended in cases of PAH associated with hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia. The objective of this study is to investigate the efficacy and tolerability of Bevacizumab treatment in hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia with cardiac involvement (isolated symptomatic high cardiac output or associated with post-capillary PAH) secondary to severe liver damage, based on the experience of the French hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia network since the CIROCO registry was opened in 2009.

A Trial of TER-1754 in Patients With Hereditary Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia

This is a Phase 1a/1b, multicenter study evaluating the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and clinical activity of TER-1754 (a novel AKT1 inhibitor) in patients with HHT.

Pomalidomide for the Treatment of Bleeding in Hereditary Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia Longitudinal Assessment Study

This is a multicenter U.S. longitudinal study evaluating patients with hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia who participated in the PATH-HHT clinical trial of pomalidomide for the treatment of HHT. This study is a longitudinal assessment of safety and effectiveness of pomalidomide in HHT in clinical trial participants following completion of the double-blind, placebo-controlled study.
