This study evaluates the effect of ROC-101 in adults with either Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH) or Pulmonary Hypertension Associated with Interstitial Lung Disease (ILD-PH). Each eligible participant will receive standard of care (SOC) plus ROC-101 for a 24-week treatment period, followed by a long-term extension period of the study through the end of the program or marketing approval/authorization.
This is a Phase 2a, open-label, single-arm, multicenter, exploratory study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of oral doses of ROC-101 for the treatment of participants with either World Health Organization (WHO) Group I PAH or WHO Group III ILD-PH. All eligible PAH/ILD-PH participants will receive SOC therapy plus ROC-101 at a starting dose level of 10 mg orally (PO) daily (QD) and escalating to 40 mg PO QD for the remainder of the main study period of 24 weeks. Evaluations include hemodynamic measures collected during right heart catheterization (RHC) and adverse events.

Change in Pulmonary Vascular Resistance (PVR) from Baseline versus at 24 weeks
Each participant's PVR, at resting supine, was measured by Right Heart Catheterization (RHC) at baseline and at 24 weeks.
Time frame: Baseline and 24 weeks
Safety assessments: Number of Participants Who Experienced an Adverse Event (AE)
Number of Participants Who Experienced an Adverse Event (AE)
Time frame: 24 Weeks
Change in 6-minute Walk Distance (6MWD) from Baseline versus at 24 weeks
The 6MWD was the distance walked in 6 minutes as a measure of functional capacity. This was assessed using the 6-minute walk test (6MWT). Per protocol, change from baseline in 6MWD at Week 24 will be measured
Time frame: Baseline and 24 Weeks
Change in NT-proBNP from Baseline versus at 24 weeks
NT-proBNP is a circulating biomarker that reflects myocardial stretch and is one of the biomarkers measured. The change from baseline in NT-proBNP level versus at Week 24 will be measured.
Time frame: Baseline and 24 Weeks
Change in World Health Organization (WHO) Functional Classification
The severity of participant's pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) symptoms will be graded using the WHO FC system. WHO functional classification for PAH ranges from Class I (no limitation in physical activity, no dyspnea with normal activity), Class II (slight limitation of physical activity), Class III (marked limitation of physical activity) and Class IV (cannot perform a physical activity without any symptoms, dyspnea at rest). Participants who improve in WHO FC were classified into "Improved", "No change" and "Worsened". Improvement = reduction in FC, worsened = increase in FC and no change = no change in FC. Percentage of participants who improve in WHO FC at Week 24 from baseline will be reported.
