Brief Summary

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

In this trial the effects of the inhaled drug BAY1237592 will be studied in patients with high blood pressure in the pulmonary blood vessels due to Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH) and due to Chronic Thromboembolic Pulmonary Hypertension (CTEPH). Pulmonary hypertension is characterized by the elevation of pressure in the pulmonary arteries (PAP) and of the pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) leading to increased workload of the right chamber of the heart to eject blood against this elevated resistance. The goal of this study is to measure the safety and tolerability of the drug as well as the reduction of the PVR at different doses

In Part A patients without specific treatment for PH (untreated patients) will be tested. In Part B also patients stably pre-treated with specific PH drugs will be studied in combination with the new inhaled drug

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Untreated patients (Part A and Part B)

Part A: Untreated PAH and CTEPH patients will be enrolled to test 5 ascending doses of BAY1237592 with 4 patients per dose group up to a maximum dose of 4000 µg.

Part B: The highest safe, well tolerated and effective dose of Part A will be tested in further untreated patients.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

BAY1237592

Intervention Type DRUG

Oral inhalation with dry powder inhaler, single dose.

Monotherapy (Part B)

The highest safe, well tolerated and effective dose chosen from Part A will be tested in pre-treated patients with any kind of monotherapy for PAH/CTEPH.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

BAY1237592

Intervention Type DRUG

Oral inhalation with dry powder inhaler, single dose.

Combined therapy (Part B)

The highest safe, well tolerated and effective dose from Part A will be tested in pre-treated patients with any kind of double combination treatment for PAH/CTEPH.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* Patients with PAH or CTEPH undergoing medically indicated routine invasive diagnostics
* Men and women aged 18 to 80 years

Part A:

\- Untreated patients: Therapy-naïve patients (defined as off treatment with PDE-5 inhibitors, endothelin receptor antagonists, prostanoids, or other sGC stimulators/activators) with PAH or CTEPH or patients pre-treated with these medications who have to undergo a drug specific wash-out period at the discretion of the investigator for least 24 h prior to Day -1 if medically safe

Part B:

* Untreated patients with PAH or CTEPH:

\-- Group 1 (total will be summed up with corresponding dosage group from Part A)
* Pre-treated patients with PAH or CTEPH:

* Group 2: Pre-treated patients with any kind of monotherapy\* for PAH/CTEPH
* Group 3: Pre-treated patients with any kind of double combination therapy\* for PAH/CTEPH \* patients receiving inhaled Iloprost, and patients who are known responders to iNO are excluded

Exclusion Criteria

\- Medical history indicating a different cause for PH than PAH or CTEPH according to the guidelines of the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) and the European Respiratory Society (ERS), such as significant left heart disease, valvular disease, or structural heart defects, as assessed by the investigator, significant pulmonary disease or clinical suspicion of pulmonary venoocclusive disease
