Developing Models for New Drugs in PAH: A Pharmacokinetic Simulation of Ralinepag (ISHLT 2025) - P3 | "The model also accurately predicted blood plasma concentrations consistent with those observed in the phase 2 study with patients with PAH.Conclusion The accuracy of this model across multiple doses and formulations suggests that it will be applicable in analyzing results from the ongoing phase 3 ADVANCE OUTCOMES study. Beyond simulating PK, we plan to extend the model to link with variables such as hemodynamics and exercise capacity, with potential utility to calculate dosing equivalencies for transition from other PAH therapies to ralinepag."

United Therapeutics Corporation Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2024 Financial Results (Businesswire) - "'both TETON studies in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis are enrolled, facilitating data starting the second half of this year; ralinepag, our potentially best-in-class once-daily oral prostacyclin agonist, will generate data next year'...Total Tyvaso revenues grew by 19 percent to $415.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2024, compared to $350.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2023...Total Tyvaso revenues grew by 31 percent to $1,620.4 million in 2024, compared to $1,233.7 million in 2023...The growth in Remodulin revenues resulted from an increase in U.S. Remodulin revenues, driven by an increase in quantities sold. The growth in Orenitram revenues resulted from an increase in quantities sold and, to a lesser extent, a price increase."

New and Emerging Therapeutic Drugs for the Treatment of Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension: A Systematic Review. (PubMed, Cureus) - "Several FDA-approved therapeutic options are available, including prostacyclin analogs (epoprostenol, iloprost, and treprostinil), the non-prostanoid IP receptor agonist selexipag, selective endothelin receptor antagonists (ERA) (ambrisentan, bosentan, and macitentan), phosphodiesterase 5 inhibitors (sildenafil and tadalafil), and the soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC) stimulator riociguat...The review found that while udenafil, imatinib, racecadotril, sotatercept, anastrozole, riociguat, tacrolimus, and ralinepag were evaluated, imatinib was notably associated with adverse side effects. Conversely, udenafil, racecadotril, sotatercept, anastrozole, riociguat, tacrolimus, and ralinepag were found to be safe, well-tolerated, and effective in improving hemodynamic measures and 6-MWDs. This study aims to summarize the developing treatment options currently under clinical trials, highlighting the need for further trials before their application in clinical practice."

Initial Long-term Data From a Phase 3 Open-label Extension Study (ROR-PH-303) Evaluating Ralinepag for the Treatment of Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (Advance Extension) (ATS 2024) - P3 | "Ralinepag has produced sustained, durable improvements in 6MWD and WHO FC, and reduced risk scores. The safety profile of ralinepag is similar to that reported in previous studies. Data from this Phase 3 OLE study demonstrate the benefit-risk ratio of ralinepag remains unchanged and positive."
