Introduction (1/3)
Pulmonary arterial pressure (PAP)- mean PAP of 25 mm Hg or
greater at rest > 20 mm Hg
Function of CO & PVR
low-resistance and low-pressure circulatory system
PAH- mean > 25 mm hg- additional stress on the RV- RV
dysfunction and hypertrophy
21-09-2022 4
Intro(2/3)
Heterogenous disease
Pathogenic remodeling of the pulmonary vasculature
Increased pulmonary artery pressure & vascular resistance
M/c causes:
• left heart pathology
• 1o lung disease
• late complication of luminal pulmonary embolism
High mortality rate
• decompensated right heart failure
21-09-2022
*Harrisons- 22 ed.
5
Intro(3/3)
mean pulmonary artery pressure (mPAP):
• lowered from ≥25 mmHg to >20 mmHg
expedition in diagnosis (2 yrs)
• common  important implications both QALY and life span
median survival in untreated disease is 2.8 years, with modern therapies, the
median survival has been estimated to be about 9 years*
no approved targeted therapies for PH
21-09-2022 *GG 6

Symptomatology
(1/2)
Dyspnea and/or fatigue, edema, chest pain, presyncope, and syncope associated with
more advanced disease
Right ventricular failure with elevated jugular venous pressure
Accentuated P2 component of the S2
Right-sided S3 or S4 and a holosystolic tricuspid regurgitant murmur
It is also important to seek signs of the diseases that are commonly concurrent with PH:
clubbing may be seen
21-09-2022 8
(2/2)
In some chronic lung diseases, sclerodactyly and telangiectasia may signify
scleroderma CREST
crackles on examination of the lungs and systemic
hypertension may be clues to left-sided systolic or diastolic heart failure.

Imp. Variant: vasoconstriction-dominant phenotype
Other variants: PAH, CTEPH
Genetic & molecular level:
• decreased expression of the voltage-regulated potassium channel
• mutations in bone morphogenetic protein receptor-2
• increased tissue factor expression
• overactivation of the serotonin transporter
• Hypoxia induced activation of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α
• activation of nuclear factor of activated T cells

Pharmacotherapy
Strategy
Pulmonary vasodilation
Exert antiproliferative or proapoptotic effects on highly proliferative cells in the
pulmonary vascular wall (e.g., myofibroblasts)
Prevent/ resolve in situ thrombosis in small arteries and precapillary arterioles
Exert antifibrotic effects to attenuate extracellular matrix stiffness
Reduce pulmonary vascular wall stiffness due to myogenic tone and cholesterol-
associated membrane stiffness
21-09-2022 20
Pharmacotherapy
Rx strategy: Sequential combination therapy with addition of other class of drugs as ds. progresses:
• + NO & cGMP/ PKG signaling
• membrane receptor agonists/ antagonists
• ion channel blockers and openers
ERAs, PDE5 inhibitors or sGC stimulators-first-line agents
most severe PAH patients parenteral therapy with
• epoprostenol
• treprostinil
21-09-2022 21
Nitric Oxide
Preferentially vasodilating better-ventilated lung regions from poorly inflated lung areas
Inhaled NO is a selective pulmonary vasodilator

Conclusion
Imbalance of vasoactive mediators, mitogenic and
angiogenic factors& pro/antiapoptotic proteins plays an
important role in PAH development
Pharmacological agents employed in PAH are focused on
restoring the balance between contraction and
proliferation the one hand and relaxation and
antiproliferation on the other

  • 4. Introduction (1/3) Pulmonary arterial pressure (PAP)- mean PAP of 25 mm Hg or greater at rest > 20 mm Hg Function of CO & PVR low-resistance and low-pressure circulatory system PAH- mean > 25 mm hg- additional stress on the RV- RV dysfunction and hypertrophy 21-09-2022 4
  • 5. Intro(2/3) Heterogenous disease Pathogenic remodeling of the pulmonary vasculature Increased pulmonary artery pressure & vascular resistance M/c causes: • left heart pathology • 1o lung disease • late complication of luminal pulmonary embolism High mortality rate • decompensated right heart failure 21-09-2022 *Harrisons- 22 ed. 5
  • 6. Intro(3/3) mean pulmonary artery pressure (mPAP): • lowered from ≥25 mmHg to >20 mmHg expedition in diagnosis (2 yrs) • common  important implications both QALY and life span median survival in untreated disease is 2.8 years, with modern therapies, the median survival has been estimated to be about 9 years* no approved targeted therapies for PH 21-09-2022 *GG 6
  • 8. (1/2) Dyspnea and/or fatigue, edema, chest pain, presyncope, and syncope associated with more advanced disease Right ventricular failure with elevated jugular venous pressure Accentuated P2 component of the S2 Right-sided S3 or S4 and a holosystolic tricuspid regurgitant murmur It is also important to seek signs of the diseases that are commonly concurrent with PH: clubbing may be seen 21-09-2022 8
  • 9. (2/2) In some chronic lung diseases, sclerodactyly and telangiectasia may signify scleroderma CREST crackles on examination of the lungs and systemic hypertension may be clues to left-sided systolic or diastolic heart failure. 21-09-2022 9

Variant: vasoconstriction-dominant phenotype Other variants: PAH, CTEPH Genetic & molecular level: • decreased expression of the voltage-regulated potassium channel • mutations in bone morphogenetic protein receptor-2 • increased tissue factor expression • overactivation of the serotonin transporter • Hypoxia induced activation of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α • activation of nuclear factor of activated T cells 21-09-2022 17
  • 18. Strategy Pulmonary vasodilation Exert antiproliferative or proapoptotic effects on highly proliferative cells in the pulmonary vascular wall (e.g., myofibroblasts) Prevent/ resolve in situ thrombosis in small arteries and precapillary arterioles Exert antifibrotic effects to attenuate extracellular matrix stiffness Reduce pulmonary vascular wall stiffness due to myogenic tone and cholesterol- associated membrane stiffness 21-09-2022 20
  • 19. Pharmacotherapy Rx strategy: Sequential combination therapy with addition of other class of drugs as ds. progresses: • + NO & cGMP/ PKG signaling • membrane receptor agonists/ antagonists • ion channel blockers and openers ERAs, PDE5 inhibitors or sGC stimulators-first-line agents most severe PAH patients parenteral therapy with • epoprostenol • treprostinil 21-09-2022 21
  • 20. Nitric Oxide Preferentially vasodilating better-ventilated lung regions from poorly inflated lung areas Inhaled NO is a selective pulmonary vasodilator A/c and specific effect- Very short t1/2 E- 70% as NO3- Urine Uses: • Persistent pulm. HTN of newborn • a/c hypoxemic resp. failure 21-09-2022 22

  • 22. Prostaglandin I2 Analogues (1/2) Epoprostenol • first synthetic • dose dependent effect and ADR-PVR & SR • t1/2 = 3–5 min- infusion through pump • Improves survival • Reduces symptoms • ADRs- myalgias, pain in the extremities, systemic hypotension Treprostinil • longer half-life • Dosage forms- Tablets, SC inj. Injectables for continuous infusion • most common adverse effect- Cough Iloprost • first PgI2- Inhalational form • minimal systemic side effects • • ADR- headache, jaw pain, cough 21-09-2022 24
  • 23. Prostaglandin I2 Analogues (2/2)-Selexipag Salient features • orally active • selective IPR agonist • chemically distinct • different pk properties compared to others PK properties: • A- Rapid • M- Liver by hydrolysis • E- t1/2 – 1-2 hrs • t1/2 of active metabolite- 10-14 hrs • Properties facilitates BD dosing Clinical Pharmacology: • starting dose of 200 μg • weekly to a maximum dose • Uptitration upto 1600 μg twice daily • A/E- headache, jaw pain, nausea, dizziness, flushing, nasopharyngitis, & vomiting 21-09-2022 25
  • 26. Endothelin antagonists ROCs: Receptor operated Ca2+ channels coadministration with cyclosporine and glyburide is contraindicated 21-09-2022 28 Bosentan • competitive antagonist of ETA and ETB receptors • mild-severe functional impairment (functional classes II–IV) • Dose- Max upto125 mg twice daily • M= CYPs 2C9 and 3A4 • E= t1/2 = 5 h, in bile Macitentan • orally active, competitive ETA and ETB receptor antagonist • Dose- 10 mg daily • Relatively hepato-safe • t 1/2 parent compound-16 h, , active metabolite about 48 h Ambrisentan • ETa selective (4000x) • maximum of 10 mg daily • t1/2- 9 h • Hepatosafe (<mac) • Clinically relevant interactions- not reported
