About this clinical trial

PAH is a type of high blood pressure that affects arteries that go from the heart to the lungs. Sotatercept given by weight-based dosing has been approved in the US (but not yet in Australia) to treat PAH in adults. This trial aims to test the safety of Sotatercept and compare 2 different methods of dosing: weight-based” (dose based on exact body weight) and “weight-banded” (dose based on weight bands with a different dose assigned to each band).
