Frequently asked questions about AZD3427

What is AZD3427 used for?

AZD3427 is an investigational small molecule being developed for pulmonary hypertension (World Health Organization Group 2) and heart failure. It is being studied in patients with heart failure and pulmonary hypertension Group 2, a condition where elevated pressure in the lungs is associated with left heart disease.

Who makes AZD3427?

AZD3427 is being developed by AstraZeneca PLC, a biopharmaceutical company traded on the NASDAQ under the ticker symbol AZN. The company is conducting clinical trials to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of this investigational drug in cardiovascular indications.

What phase is AZD3427 in?

AZD3427 is in clinical development. A Phase 1 trial has been completed, and a Phase 2 study in participants with heart failure and pulmonary hypertension Group 2 has also been completed. The drug is investigational and has not been approved by regulatory authorities.

What clinical trials is AZD3427 in?

AZD3427 has been studied in two clinical trials. NCT04630067 was a Phase 1 study assessing safety, tolerability, immunogenicity, and pharmacokinetics in healthy volunteers with heart failure. NCT05737940 was a Phase 2 study in participants with heart failure and pulmonary hypertension Group 2, conducted across multiple countries.

Is AZD3427 the same as any other drug?

AZD3427 is the only name provided for this investigational drug. No alternative names or brand names have been associated with this compound in the available clinical trial information. It is identified solely by its development code AZD3427.
