Phase 3 — Testing in thousands of people, comparing the treatment against what doctors currently use. This is the last big step before approval.
This trial is testing a medication called (TPIP) to see if it helps people with pulmonary arterial hypertension—a condition where high pressure in the blood vessels of the lungs makes it hard to breathe and exercise. The medication is inhaled as a powder once a day, and researchers want to compare how well it works compared to a placebo (a dummy treatment with no active medicine). The main goal is to see if the medication improves how far people can walk and how well they can exercise.
People with pulmonary arterial hypertension often struggle with exercise and daily activities because their lungs can't pump blood efficiently. While there are some treatments available, researchers want to see if this new medication—taken just once a day by inhalation—can help patients do more and feel better than current options.

If you join this study, you will be randomly assigned to either receive the new inhaled medication or a placebo, taken once daily for 24 weeks. You'll start at a low dose and gradually increase it to find your maximum tolerated dose (up to 1,280 micrograms). During the study, you'll have regular visits to your study site to check how well the treatment is working, measure how far you can walk, and monitor for any side effects. Your current PAH medications will continue as usual.
