Summary

This study tests an oral drug called levosimendan against a placebo in 540 adults with pulmonary hypertension and a type of heart failure (HFpEF). The main goal is to see if the drug helps people walk farther in six minutes. Participants must be 18-85 years old with specific heart and lung measurements. The drug is not a cure but aims to control the disease and ease symptoms.
