|
Inclusion Criteria:
1. Signed informed consent prior to any study-mandated procedure.
2. Male or female = 18 and = 75 years of age at screening.
3. Initial PAH diagnosis < 6 months prior to enrollment.
4. RHC performed between Day -28 and Day 1, meeting all the following criteria:
- Mean pulmonary artery pressure (mPAP) = 25 mmHg.
- Pulmonary artery wedge pressure or left ventricular end-diastolic pressure = 15
mmHg.
- PVR = 480 dyn•sec/cm5 (= 6 Wood Units).
- Negative vasoreactivity test mandatory in idiopathic, heritable, and drug/toxin
induced PAH (at this or a previous RHC).
5. Symptomatic PAH belonging to one of the following subgroups:
- Idiopathic.
- Heritable.
- Drug or toxin induced.
- Associated with one of the following: connective tissue disease; HIV infection;
congenital heart disease.
6. 6-minute walk distance (6MWD) = 50 m at screening.
7. Women of childbearing potential must not be pregnant, must perform regular pregnancy
tests, and use reliable contraception.
Exclusion Criteria:
1. Any PAH-specific drug therapy at any time.
2. Cardio pulmonary rehabilitation program based on exercise (planned, or started = 12
weeks prior to Day 1).
3. Body mass index (BMI) > 40 kg/m2 at screening.
4. Presence of three or more of the following risk factors for heart failure with
preserved ejection fraction at screening:
- BMI > 30 kg/m2.
- Diabetes mellitus of any type.
- Essential hypertension.
- Coronary artery disease, i.e., any of the following:
- History of stable angina or
- More than 50% stenosis in a coronary artery (by coronary angiography) or
- History of myocardial infarction or
- History of or planned coronary artery bypass grafting and/or coronary artery
stenting.
5. Acute myocardial infarction = 12 weeks prior to screening.
6. Stroke = 12 weeks prior to screening.
7. Known permanent atrial fibrillation.
8. SBP < 90 mmHg at screening or Day 1.
9. Ongoing or planned treatment with organic nitrates and/or doxazosin.
10. Presence of one or more of the following signs of relevant lung disease at any time up
to screening:
- Diffusing capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide (DLCO) < 40% of predicted
(eligible only if no or mild interstitial lung disease on computed tomography).
- Forced vital capacity (FVC) < 60% of predicted.
- Forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) < 60% of predicted.
11. Known or suspected pulmonary veno-occlusive disease (PVOD).
12. Documented severe hepatic impairment (with or without cirrhosis) according to National
Cancer Institute organ dysfunction working group criteria, defined as total bilirubin
> 3 × upper limit of the normal range (ULN) accompanied by aspartate aminotransferase
(AST) > ULN (assessed by central laboratory at screening); and/or Child-Pugh Class C.
13. Serum AST and/or alanine aminotransferase (ALT) > 3 × ULN (assessed by central
laboratory at screening).
14. Severe renal impairment (estimated creatinine clearance = 30 mL/min/1.73 m2) assessed
by central laboratory at screening.
15. Ongoing or planned dialysis.

rifampin, rifampicin, rifabutin, rifapentin, phenobarbital, phenytoin, and St. John's
wort) = 28 days prior to Day 1.
20. Treatment with strong inhibitors of CYP3A4 (e.g., ketoconazole, itraconazole,
voriconazole, clarithromycin, telithromycin, nefazodone, ritonavir, and saquinavir)
and/or strong inhibitors of CYP2C8 (e.g., gemfibrozil) = 28 days prior to Day 1.
21. Treatment with another investigational drug (planned, or taken = 12 weeks prior to Day
1).
22. Hypersensitivity to any of the 3 study treatments or any excipient of their
formulations.
23. Pregnancy, breastfeeding, or intention to become pregnant during the study.
24. Concomitant life-threatening disease with a life expectancy < 12 months.
25. Alcohol abuse.
26. Any factor or condition likely to affect protocol compliance of the subject, as judged
by the investigator.
