Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Patients with symptomatic idiopathic (IPAH) or familial (FPAH) pulmonary arterial hypertension in New York Heart Association (NYHA) class II to IV , naive to PAH treatment or currently being treated with a stable dose of either bosentan or sildenafil and who complete PROWESS 15 will be enrolled in the PROWESS 15 Extension study. This is a double-blind (12 week), randomized study to compare the safety and tolerability of inhaled iloprost power disc-15 and power disc-6 in patients with symptomatic pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). After completion of the double blind period, patients will be entered in the open label period using iloprost power disc-15.
