Female subject of childbearing potential must be willing and able to practice effective contraception during the study and continuing contraception for 30 days after their last dose of study drug. A female subject of non-childbearing potential is defined as being surgically sterilized by bilateral tubal ligation, bilateral oophorectomy, or hysterectomy. A female subject 45 to 60 years of age, who is post-menopausal for at least 1 year, and has a follicle-stimulating hormone level confirmation indicating post menopausal status will be considered of non-childbearing potential. A female subject \>60 years of age is considered post menopausal and of non childbearing potential. Exclusion Criteria: Subjects will be excluded from the study if they meet any of the following criteria: 1. Subject has pulmonary hypertension category 2 to 5. 2. Subject has adult congenital heart disease (ACHD). 3. Subject has concomitant medical or psychiatric disorder, condition, history, or any other condition that in the opinion of the Investigator would either put the subject at risk or impair the subject's ability to participate in or complete the requirements of the study or confound the objectives of the study. 4. Subject has a concomitant medical disorder that is expected to limit the subject's life-expectancy to ≤1 year. 5. Subject has RRS 2.0 score of ≤5 or ≥11. 6. Subject has heart fai 7. lure with preserved ejection fraction defined as those with \>50% ejection fraction (with signs and symptoms of heart failure) or left atrial volume (LAV) \>34 mL/ m2. 8. Subject is not able to have CardioMEMS PA Sensor implanted due to: 1. An active, ongoing infection defined as being febrile, an elevated white blood cell count, on intravenous antibiotics, and/or positive cultures (blood, sputum, or urine). 2. History of current or recurrent (≥2 episodes within 5 years prior to consent) pulmonary emboli and/or deep vein thromboses. 3. Cannot tolerate RHC. 4. PA branch inner diameter \<7 mm in a descending branch within the left or right lower lung lobe (target implant vessel). 5. Unable to take dual antiplatelet or anticoagulation therapy for 1 month after CardioMEMS PA Sensor implantation. 9. Subject is likely to undergo lung transplantation within the next 6 months. 10. Subject has untreated, moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnea. 11. Subject has evidence of significant chronic thromboembolic disorder as determined by the Investigator or recent pulmonary embolism within 6 months prior to Screening (see also exclusion criterium 7b). 12. Subject has uncontrolled hypertension (˃160/100 mmHg, confirmed by duplicate seated readings) at 2 or more historical visits within 3 months prior to Screening. 13. Subject has sustained systolic blood pressure \<95 mmHg and/or diastolic blood pressure \<50 mmHg (confirmed by duplicate seated readings) on at least 3 consecutive occasions (self monitored or office) prior to or at Screening, or overt symptomatic hypotension. 14. Subject has sustained resting heart rate \>120 beats per minute (confirmed by duplicate assessments of office vital signs) or consecutive electrocardiogram (ECG) assessments on at least 3 consecutive occasions prior to or at Screening. 15. Subject has a history of a bleeding disorder. 16. Subject has thrombocytopenia: platelets \<150,000/mm3. 17. Subject has known porphyria, mitochondrial, or urea cycle disease. 18. Subject has a history of chronic pancreatic disease. 19. Subject is a pregnant or lactating female. 20. Subject has a positive result from serology testing at Screening for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), hepatitis C virus (HCV); but if the subject has a historical diagnosis (prior to Screening) of being positive for HIV, HBsAg, or HCV, must be clinically stable and if on therapy, be on stable therapy for at least 3 months prior to Screening. A subject should not have active coronavirus disease 19 (COVID-19); however, those with previous COVID 19 are permitted. 21. Subject has participated in another investigational drug study within 30 days prior to Screening or is participating in a non medication study which, in the opinion of the Investigator, would interfere with the study compliance or outcome assessments. 22. Subject is on regular treatment with sodium valproate/valproic acid (VPA), other anti-epilepsy drugs, or other prohibited medications that cannot be discontinued at the Screening Visit (V1). 23. Subject is on regular anticoagulation or on dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) that cannot be discontinued at the Screening Visit (V1); however, during the Baseline Period following CardioMEMS PA Sensor implantation, DAPT is allowed according to clinical practice for up to 4 weeks. A low daily dose aspirin (\<125 mg) is allowed, ie, "baby" aspirin. 24. Subject has more than mild mitral or aortic valve disease, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) \<50%, or left ventricular regional wall motion abnormality suggestive of active coronary artery disease on 2D-echocardiogram at Screening. 25. Subject has a forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1)/forced vital capacity \<70% (absolute), FEV1 ≤50% or total lung capacity (TLC) \<70% predicted on pulmonary function testing (PFT); for potential subjects with TLC 60 to 69% predicted, non contrasted computerized tomography (CT) scan must be performed to exclude subjects with more than mild interstitial lung disease. PFTs should have been obtained within 3 years prior to Screening. 26. Subject has clinically significant renal dysfunction as measured by the estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR) of \<30 mL/min/1.73m2 as calculated by Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) at Screening. 27. Subject has significant liver dysfunction as measured by any one of the following at Screening (including subjects with acute or chronic hepatitis as well as subjects with own or family history of serious hepatitis, especially drug related): 1. Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) \>2.0 × upper limit of normal (ULN). 2. Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) \>2.0 × ULN. 3. Serum bilirubin ≥1.6 mg/dL or \>2.0 × ULN. 28. Subject has a known history of substance abuse including alcohol abuse within the 1 year prior to Screening that in the opinion of the Investigator would impair the subject's ability to participate in or complete the requirements of the study. 29. Subjects with any major surgical procedure or trauma within 30 days prior to Screening or planned surgical procedure during the study period. 30. Subject with any inpatient hospitalization (defined as \>23 hours) within 30 days prior to Screening. 31. Subject enrolled within 90 days prior to Screening or plans to enroll during the study into a cardiopulmonary rehabilitation program. 32. Subject has known hypersensitivity to study drug or any of the excipients of the drug formulation.
