Study Title Principal Investigator
Assessing the safety and efficacy of Macitentan in patients with portopulmonary hypertension
Several drugs (blood vessel dilators), including macitentan, are currently approved for the treatment of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) in many parts of the world. These drugs have significantly improved the outcome of the condition. However, none of these treatments have been evaluated in portopulmonary hypertension, a form of PAH caused by liver disease. The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of macitentan in portopulmonary hypertension by looking at several clinical indicators, including the pressures within the arteries of the lungs and a person’s capacity for exercise.

Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH) Quality Enhancement Research Initiative (QuERI) Extension Program
This is a prospective, U.S.-based, multi-center, knowledge translation program tracking patient management until approximately early 2018. To improve the management of PAH patients through an evidence-based approach aimed at achieving optimal WHO functional class (FC). The goal of the optimal functional class is to improve WHO functional class III and IV patients to functional class I or II, and to improve all functional class II patients to functional class I, or at least to maintain functional class I/II in patients presenting in that functional class. Endpoints:1. Proportion of patients achieving guideline-recommended treatment at each documented visit.2. Proportion of patients achieving optimal functional class using an evidence-based reatment algorithm.3. Proportion of patients on various therapies in relation to their WHO functional class.4. PAH management (use of therapies) by physicians across patient risk strata based on FC.5. Association between treatment and physician and patient adherence with recommended treatment.6. Utilization of Knowledge Translation Program system reminders, and response by the physicians when asked for reasons evidence based therapy was not utilized.7. Survival by FC (baseline and change), etiology, prevalent vs incident, academic vs community, adherence and reminders.Descriptive analysis of demographic variables, physical exam, medical history and treatment profile will be performed as appropriate. Confidence Intervals (95%) will be calculated for descriptive and comparative purposes.

A Postmarketing Observational Study to Assess Respiratory Tract Adverse Events in Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension Patients Treated With Tyvaso® (Treprostinil) Inhalation Solution
A post marketing surveillance to determine the type and incidence of oro/nasopharyngeal or pulmonary adverse events that may occur in patients treated with commercially available Tyvaso®(treprostinil) Inhalation Solution. A comparison will be made to the type and incidence of events in patients receiving other FDA approved therapies for pulmonary arterial hypertension, as a control measure.

CALM- 2 - Controlling and Lowering Blood Pressure With the MobiusHD™
The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the MobiusHD System in a prospective, randomized, double-blind, sham-controlled multi-center pivotal study. Patients with resistant hypertension who remain uncontrolled despite pharmacologic treatment with maximum tolerated, guideline-directed anti-hypertensive pharmacologic therapy will be evaluated.
