Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension
Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a progressive condition characterized by high blood pressure in the arteries of the lungs, leading to shortness of breath, fatigue, and chest pain. Over time, this increased pressure can cause the heart to work harder, resulting in heart failure and other complications.
Recent advances in understanding the molecular pathways involved in PAH have driven the development of more targeted therapies aimed at reducing pulmonary vascular resistance and slowing disease progression. These therapies focus not only on managing symptoms but also on addressing the underlying causes of increased blood pressure in the lungs.
iNGENū’s team of researchers and clinicians is committed to advancing PAH research. Through innovative trial designs and a patient-focused approach, we strive to accelerate the development of new treatments that have the potential to enhance the quality of life for individuals living with pulmonary arterial hypertension.

more likely to develop PAH
40%
of patients with untreated PAH develop right heart failure
10%
of PAH cases are heritable, often involving mutations in the BMPR2 gene.
