Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Outcome name:Clinical worsening defined as time between first dose of study drug and occurrence of death; or heart-lung/lung transplant; or hospitalization for worsening pulmonary atrial hypertension (PAH); or atrial septostomy; or withdrawal due to addition of chronic medications for treatment of worsening PAH: prostacyclin/prostacyclin analogues/phosphodiesterase-5inhibitors/alternative endothelin receptor antagonists/intravenous inotropes; or increase of calcium channel blockers or oxygen. TTCW measured as duration between studys first dose date in and date when first clinical worsening event occurs. Measure:Time to Clinical Worsening (TTCW) Timepoints:Baseline, Weeks 12, 24 or Early Termination (ET) | — |

| Outcome name:6 MWD was the distance that a participant could walk in 6 minutes. Participants were asked to perform the test at a pace that was comfortable to them, with as many breaks as they needed. Continuous pulse oximetry was conducted during the test for safety. Change from baseline = score at Week x - score at baseline. Measure:Change From Baseline in the Total Distance Walked During 6 Minute Walk Distance (6MWD) Timepoints:Baseline to Weeks 12 and 24 ; Outcome name:WHO PAH Functional Classification of physical activity limitations: I (no limitation), II (slight limitation), III (marked limitations, comfortable at rest) and IV (unable to carry out any physical activity without symptoms). The change from baseline in WHO class was classified as Improved (decrease in functional class), No Change (functional class stayed the same), and Worsened (functional class increased). The change from baseline in WHO functional class at Week X was summarized with frequency count and percentage in each category based on imputed data for missing values at Week X. Measure:Change From Baseline in World Health Organization (WHO) Functional Class in Participants With PAH at Weeks 12, 24, 48 Timepoints:Baseline, Weeks 12, 24 or ET ; Outcome name:SF-36 is a standardized survey evaluating 8 aspects of functional health and well being: physical and social functioning, physical and emotional role limitations, bodily pain, general health, vitality, mental health. The score for a section is an average of the individual question scores, which are scaled 0-100 (100=highest level of functioning). Change from baseline = Physical Functioning score at Week x minus score at baseline. Measure:Change in 36-Item Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36) From Baseline at Weeks 12, 24 and 48 - Physical Functioning Domain Timepoints:Baseline, Weeks 12, 24 and ET ; Outcome name:SF-36 is a standardized survey evaluating 8 aspects of functional health and well being | — |
