Previous data from our group showed reduced BMPR2 isoform A in pulmonary hypertension associated with left heart disease (PH-LHD) of valvular origin. Focusing on dysregulation of the BMPR2-activin pathway, a key regulator of vascular homeostasis, this project uses a multimodal approach combining molecular biology, advanced cardiac imaging, and histology. Its aim is to determine the role of the BMPR2-activin pathway in the development and regression of PH-LHD. We will conduct a prospective observational study with 1-year follow-up in 150 heart failure patients of different etiologies undergoing hemodynamic assessment. Clinical parameters, biomarkers, molecular profiles, and hemodynamic/echocardiographic variables will be analyzed. A nested substudy in 40 heart transplant candidates will include thoracic CT for vascular morphometric analysis and histological correlation in explanted hearts versus healthy controls. We will also assess reversibility of vascular remodeling one year after transplantation. Results may redefine PH-LHD classification, enable phenotypic precision-medicine models, guide targeted therapies such as activin inhibitors, and refine transplant criteria in combined pulmonary hypertension.

NCT04882774
This study aims to decrease elevated pressure in the lungs of patients with pulmonary hypertension from left heart with elevated pulmonary vascular resistance by utilizing aggressive fluid management with ReDS Pro System and CardioMEMS device. Participants with persistently elevated pulmonary pressure at Week 16 will begin oral treprostinil in combination with the fluid management plan while those with improved pressures maintain their fluid management plan for an additional 16 weeks.
