This Phase 2 trial tests an experimental drug called APL-9796 in 48 adults with pulmonary hypertension (high blood pressure in the lungs). The study aims to see if the drug is safe, tolerable, and effective. Participants receive injections under the skin, and researchers monitor …

This study tests a new inhaled drug, mosliciguat, added to an existing treatment (treprostinil) for people with high blood pressure in the lungs caused by lung scarring. The goal is to see if the combination is safe and tolerable. About 20 adults with this condition will particip…

This study tests whether giving iron through a vein can help people with pulmonary hypertension (high blood pressure in the lungs) who also have low iron levels. Many patients with this condition have trouble absorbing iron from pills. The trial will compare intravenous iron to a…

This study tests whether tadalafil, a drug often used for erectile dysfunction, can help people with severe pulmonary hypertension caused by chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). About 200 adults with both conditions will receive either tadalafil or a placebo daily for 16…

This study tests a new device for people with pulmonary hypertension, a condition where high blood pressure strains the heart. The device is implanted to help the heart pump better. About 30 adults with severe symptoms will take part to see if the device is safe and works well.

This phase 2 trial is testing whether two existing drugs, empagliflozin (used for diabetes) and ranolazine (used for chest pain), can improve right heart function in 30 people with pulmonary hypertension and right heart failure. Participants will receive one of the drugs plus sta…

This study explored whether a special type of MRI using inhaled xenon gas could detect changes in the small blood vessels of the lungs in people with pulmonary hypertension. The goal was to see if this imaging method could track disease progression or response to treatment. Howev…

This study looks for early signs of pulmonary hypertension (high blood pressure in the lungs) in people with chronic lung diseases like COPD or pulmonary fibrosis. Researchers will analyze collagen fragments in blood and lung tissue to create a 'fingerprint' that could lead to si…
