The EAGLE study is a Phase 3, open-label, multi-center, two-part, single-arm study of GeNOsyl(R) delivery system(s) to evaluate if inhaled nitric oxide-induced vasodilation predicts successful wean from parenteral prostacyclin (PGI) in subjects with World Health Organization (WHO) Group 1 pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) undergoing a medically necessary right heart catheterization (RHC). All subjects enrolled in the study will undergo an attempt to wean from parenteral PGI per standard of care.
This study will be divided into 2 parts: a Pilot Phase followed by Pivotal Phase. * The Pilot Phase will enroll up to 20 subjects. The information derived from the Pilot Phase will evaluate safety, and assess the vasoreactivity test response rate. * Approximately 150 subjects will be enrolled in the Pivotal Phase of the study, to gather further data on weaned successes from parenteral PGI. The Investigator and study staff involved with the wean and patient management will be blinded in this phase of the study to the vasoreactivity results.

Wean Success vs Wean Failure
To evaluate the number of subjects that achieve Wean Success that are Vasoreactivity Response (VR) positive (+) versus VR negative (-)and the number of subjects that are Wean Failures that are VR(+) versus VR(-). Wean-Success: * No parenteral PGI therapy at 3 months post-wean completion; and * Clinical stability, where clinical stability is defined as: * A decrease in 6MWT distance less than 10% from pre-wean; and * NT-proBNP increase \<15% from pre-wean; and * WHO Functional Class \<III Wean-Failure: * Subjects that wean successfully but do not meet all clinical stability components of the Wean-Success definition above; or * Failure to wean within the 3 month Transition Period; or * Re-initiation of parental PGI during the 3 month post-wean or subject does not meet the definition of clinical stability at 3 month post-wean; or * Death or hospitalization due to progression of disease; or * Atrial septostomy; or * Heart and/or lung transplantation
