A Phase 2, Open-Label, Dose-Escalation Study in Subjects With Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension, (PAH, WHO Group 1) and Pulmonary Hypertension Secondary to Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis, (PH-IPF WHO Group 3) Using Inhaled GeNOsyl.
A Phase 2 open label, dose escalation study to find the minimally and maximum effective dose
(dose beyond which no further effect on PVR is seen) of inhaled nitric oxide generated by
the GeNOsyl® System compared to placebo.
(dose beyond which no further effect on PVR is seen) of inhaled nitric oxide generated by
the GeNOsyl® System compared to placebo.
Up to 75 subjects undergoing RHC are planned in this study, and shall include subjects
meeting eligibility criteria classified as WHO Group 1 PAH or WHO Group 3 IPF-PH. Subjects
will receive inhaled nitric oxide from the GeNOsyl® System to characterize the hemodynamic
response and evaluate safety and tolerability.
Dose cohorts of approximately 5, 15, 20, 30, and 80 ppm nitric oxide in air will be studied.
Different dose levels will be achieved by varying the flow rate of the drug substance (80
ppm NO2 in balance air) and changing the delivery device, (cannula or mask). Each subject
will receive two different doses of inhaled nitric oxide separated by a placebo (medical
grade air or supplemental oxygen) washout. Eligible subjects will be assigned to a dosing
cohort in an escalating manner to receive study drug (80 ppm nitric oxide in air.)

alternative diagnosis

- Diagnosis of PH based on hemodynamic requirements
- Age 40-85.
- Diagnosis of IPF > or = 3 months prior to study drug administration
- Diagnosis of PH based on the following hemodynamic criteria (PAPm > or = 25 mmHg (at
rest) / PCWP or LVED < or =15 mmHg and / PVR >3 Wood Units)
EXCLUSION CRITERIA:
PAH and PH-IPF
- Have any other disease associated with pulmonary hypertension (i.e. Group II, IV or
V).
- Documented uncontrolled systemic hypertension.
- Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) < 40%.

- Be receiving an investigational drug, have in place an investigational device, or
have participated in an investigational drug study within past 30 days.
- Have had an atrial septostomy.
- Have anemia or any other ongoing condition that would interfere with the
interpretation of study assessments.
- Have any serious or life-threatening disease other than conditions associated with
PAH or PH-IPF (e.g. malignancy requiring aggressive chemotherapy, renal dialysis,
etc.)
- Significant, ongoing alcohol or drug abuse, or unstable psychiatric status.
- Receiving inhaled or parenteral prostacyclins or a non-approved combination of
approved oral PAH therapy.
- Pregnant or lactating subjects
PAH (WHO Group 1) ONLY-Exclusion
- Have had any changes to chronic therapy (including but not limited to oxygen, a
different category of vasodilator, a diuretic, digoxin) for PAH added within 14 days
of study drug administration. Anticoagulants are allowed to be discontinued per
institutional standard of care.
- History of untreated sleep apnea within three months of study drug administration.
- History of hemodynamically significant left-sided heart disease or evidence of
left-sided heart disease.
PH-IPF (WHO Group 3) ONLY-Exclusion
- Diagnosis of PH primarily due to etiology other than IPF.
- FEV/FVC ratio < 60% documented within 6 months of baseline visit.
- Hospitalization for acute exacerbation of IPF within 30 days of baseline visit.
- Recent active pulmonary or upper respiratory tract infection.
- Receiving any approved PAH therapy within 30 days of study drug administration.
