Résumé
: Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a rare pulmonary vasculopathy. This review focuses on selexipag, a prostacyclin receptor agonist validated for the treatment of PAH.
We review the structure, mechanisms of action, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of selexipag. Clinical efficacy and tolerability are discussed using the main clinical trial published for selexipag (GRIPHON) and its post-hoc analysis.
Selexipag should be added as a triple oral combination therapy in case of insufficient response to oral combination therapy with endothelin receptor antagonist and phosphodiesterase 5 inhibitor. However, selexipag should not replace parenteral prostacyclin in high-risk patients.
