Measuring Outcomes In Patients with Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension not on Active Treatment (MOTION)

Trial purpose

The MOTION study was a prospective, Phase IV study for patients with Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH). The study was designed to further explore patient-reported outcomes in PAH subjects who were not on active treatment and living in the United States. In addition, the study explored the use of new telemetric technology (Accelerator band) to evaluate if this technology correlates with improvements in 6 Minute Walking Distance 6MWD in patients with PAH.

    The Work Limitations Questionnaire (WLQ) is an 8-item questionnaire that measures the degree to which employed individuals are experiencing limitations on-the-job due to their health problems, and health-related productivity loss (Presenteeism). The WLQ's terms are aggregated into four scales (i.e. Time Management, Physical demands, Mental-interpersonal demands, Output demands). Scale score range from 0 (limited none of the time) to 100 (limited all of the time) and represent the reported amount of time in the prior two weeks respondents were limited on-the-job. In the below table, "N" signifies subjects who were evaluable for the specific parameter at that timepoint.

    SF-12v2® Health Survey is a 12-item questionnaire to measure functional health and well-being from the patient’s point of view. Physical and Mental Health Composite Scores (PCS & MCS) are computed using the scores of twelve questions and range from 0 to 100, where a zero score indicates the lowest level of health measured by the scales and 100 indicates the highest level of health. In the below table, "N" signifies subjects who were evaluable for the specific parameter at that timepoint.

    Functional class was determined by the WHO classification: I: Patients with PH (pulmonary hypertension) but without resulting limitation of physical activity. Ordinary physical activity does not cause undue dyspnea or fatigue, chest pain, or near syncope. II: Patients with PH resulting in slight limitation of physical activity. They are comfortable at rest. Ordinary physical activity causes undue dyspnea or fatigue, chest pain, or near syncope. III: Patients with PH resulting in marked limitation of physical activity. They are comfortable at rest. Less than ordinary activity causes undue dyspnea or fatigue, chest pain, or near syncope. IV: Patients with PH with inability to carry out any physical activity without symptoms. These patients manifest signs of right-heart failure. Dyspnea and/or fatigue may even be present at rest. Discomfort is increased by any physical activity. In the below table, "N" signifies subjects who were evaluable for the specific parameter at that timepoint.
