New pill could ease rare lung disease

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Ability to provide written informed consent prior to participation in the trial, which includes the ability to comply with the requirements and restrictions listed in the informed consent form (ICF). Participants must be able to read, comprehend, and write at a level sufficient to complete trial-related materials * Adult male or female participants 18 to 75 years of age at the time the ICF is signed * Diagnosed with Group 1 PAH and pre-capillary PH defined by RHC during or at any time prior to the Screening Visit in any of the following subtypes: 1. Idiopathic PAH (IPAH) 2. Heritable PAH (HPAH) 3. PAH associated drug and toxins (DPAH) 4. PAH associated with connective tissue disease (PAH-CTD) 5. PAH associated with congenital heart disease (PAH-CHD); simple systemic to pulmonary shunt at least 6 months after surgical repair * Diagnosed as WHO FC II, III, or IV on stable background therapy * Results of the RHC within 35 days prior to Day 1 and meet all of the following criteria: 1. Participants receiving treatment with endothelin receptor antagonists, phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitors, soluble guanylate cyclase stimulators, prostacyclin analogs or prostacyclin receptor agonists, calcium channel blocker, and/or diuretics are eligible only if on a stable dose for at least 90 days prior to RHC at baseline and throughout the Screening Period. For infusion prostacyclin analogs, dose adjustment based on the participant's body weight is allowed per medical practice. Stable diuretic therapy is defined as no addition of a new diuretic and no switching of a preexistent oral diuretic to parenteral administration; however, dose adjustments (up or down) in preexistent oral diuretics are acceptable 2. Participants receiving treatment with activin-signaling inhibitor are eligible only if on a stable dose for at least 180 days prior to RHC at baseline and throughout the Screening Period. Dose adjustment based on the participant's body weight is allowed per medical practice. * Valid 6-minute walk distance (6MWD) * Women of childbearing potential (WOCBP) must have a negative pregnancy test before receiving the trial treatment and must agree to use contraception from the Screening Visit to at least 30 days after the last dose of the trial treatment. Male participants who could potentially cause pregnancy must agree to use contraception from the Screening Visit to at least 90 days after the last dose of the trial treatment to avoid pregnancy in their partners * Able to complete the scheduled visits and follow the instructions of the investigator Exclusion Criteria: * Current diagnosis of the following PAH Group 1 subtypes: 1. PAH associated with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection 2. PAH associated with portal hypertension 3. PAH associated with schistosomiasis 4. PAH with features of venous/capillary involvement 5. Eisenmenger syndrome and PAH associated with prevalent systemic to pulmonary shunts in PAH-CHD * Have ≥3 of the following LV disease/dysfunction risk factors. : 1. Body mass index (BMI) ≥30 kg/m2 at the Screening Visit 2. History of essential hypertension 3. Diabetes mellitus (any type) 4. Historical evidence of significant coronary artery disease * Diagnosis of PH Groups 2, 3, 4, or 5 of the classification * Moderate or severe obstructive lung disease (forced expiratory volume in one second \[FEV1\]/forced vital capacity \[FVC\] \<0.6) or restrictive lung disease (total lung capacity \[TLC\] \<70% of predicted value or lung diffusion capacity for carbon monoxide \[DLco\] \<45% except for PAH-systemic sclerosis) during the Screening Period. * Moderate or severe liver, renal, blood, or psychiatric disease: 1. Moderate and severe hepatic impairment by the Child-Pugh scoring system (Class B and Class C) 2. Moderate and severe renal impairment by estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) \<60 mL/min/m2 3. Have mental disorders or other conditions that make it difficult to follow the protocol * History of clinically significant (per investigator's judgment) drug or alcohol abuse disorder * History of calculus urinary * Initiation of pulmonary rehabilitation within 12 weeks prior to baseline * Have diseases or symptoms that limit evaluation of 6MWT * Life expectancy is less than 1 year * Participants who are pregnant, breastfeeding, or planning to become pregnant during the time of trial participation * Severe acute or chronic medical or laboratory abnormality that may increase the risk associated with trial participation or trial treatment administration * Have a history of allergies to the excipients in the trial treatment * Known HIV positive status * Active hepatitis due to hepatitis B virus or hepatitis C virus * Use of any protocol prohibited medications * Receipt of any live vaccine within 4 weeks prior to the first dose of trial treatment or expected need for live vaccination during trial participation, including at least 4 weeks after the last dose of trial treatment * The investigator has judged the participant as unwilling or unable to comply with the protocol * Other concurrent disease and/or medical condition that, in the judgment of the investigator, may put the participant at risk or may influence the results of the trial or the participant's ability to complete the entire duration of the trial.
