Overview

Principal Investigator: Harrison Farber, MD

This is a Phase 2b, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multi-center trial to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of IKT-001 self administered orally once daily in participants with PAH. The 26 week treatment period is designed to demonstrate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of IKT-001. The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the effect of treatment with IKT on pulmonary vascular resistance and to evaluate the safety and tolerability of two doses in participants with PAH.
