Phase 2 trial on new investigational treatment for pulmonary hypertension associated with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (PH-HFpEF) completes enrolment, Pulmonary Hypertension News, June 15, 2026

Pulmonary Hypertension associated with Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction (PH-HFpEF) is classified as Group 2 pulmonary hypertension by the World Health Organization (WHO). It is a type of heart failure in which the heart still pumps normally but becomes too stiff to fill properly with blood between heartbeats. This can cause pressure to build […]
