SOC PH medications are not required * Stable dose is defined as no change in dose * CTD ILD patients are not required to be on SOC ILD therapy but if they are, must be a stable dose for 90 days and stable regimen for 180 days 8. Females of childbearing potential must satisfy following: * Have 2 negative pregnancy tests as verified by the investigator prior to starting study and must agree to ongoing pregnancy testing during the study and at end of study treatment. * If sexually active, must have used, and agree to continue to use, highly effective contraception without interruption, for at least 30 days prior to starting investigational product (IP), during the study (including dose interruptions), and for 90 days after discontinuation of study treatment. * Refrain from breastfeeding a child or donating blood, eggs, or ovum for the duration of the study and for at least 90 days after the last dose of study treatment. 9. Male participants must: * Agree to use a condom, defined as a male latex condom or nonlatex condom NOT made from natural (animal) membrane (for example, polyurethane), during sexual contact with a pregnant female or a female of childbearing potential while participating in the study, during dose interruptions, and for at least 90 days following IP discontinuation, even if he has undergone a successful vasectomy. * Refrain from donating sperm for the duration of the study and for 90 days after the last dose of study treatment. 10. Ability to adhere to the study visit schedule and understand and comply with all protocol requirements. 11. Ability to understand and provide written informed consent Exclusion Criteria: 1. Clinical evidence of moderate or severe emphysema or radiologic evidence of greater than 15% emphysema and/or radiologic evidence of moderate to severe emphysema 2. Pneumoconiosis or WHO group 5 fibrotic disorders such as sarcoidosis 3. Clinical diagnosis of chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH), supported by imaging study (e.g. ventilation-perfusion (VQ) scan, CT pulmonary angiogram (CTPA) or pulmonary angiography with findings that establish CTEPH. In the absence of a clinical diagnosis of CTEPH, an imaging study is not required. 4.

Initiation of an exercise program for cardiopulmonary rehabilitation within 90 days prior to Week 0 Visit or planned initiation during the study (participants who are stable in the maintenance phase of a program and who will continue for the duration of the study are eligible) 9. Uncontrolled systemic hypertension as evidenced by sitting systolic BP \> 170 mmHg or sitting diastolic BP \> 100 mmHg during Screening Visit after a period of rest 10. Systolic BP \< 90 mmHg during Screening Visit or at baseline unless the subject has a prior history of low asymptomatic systemic blood pressure and is reviewed by the sponsor's medical monitor 11. History of known pericardial constriction 12. RHC contraindicated during the study per investigator 13. Personal or family history of long QTc syndrome or sudden cardiac death 14. Cerebrovascular accident within 90 days of the Week 0 Visit 15. History of restrictive or constrictive cardiomyopathy 16. Left ventricular ejection fraction \< 45% on echocardiogram performed within 6 months prior to Screening Period (or done as a part of the Screening Period) 17. Any current symptomatic coronary disease (myocardial infarction, percutaneous coronary intervention, coronary artery bypass graft surgery, or cardiac anginal chest pain in the past 6 months prior to Screening Visit). 18. Known diagnosis (as determined by echocardiography) of significant (≥ 2+ regurgitation or stenotic) mitral valve or aortic valvular disease 19. Any of the following clinical laboratory values during the Screening Period prior to Week 0 Visit: * Serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) or aspartate aminotransferase (AST) levels \> 3x upper limit of normal (ULN) or total bilirubin \> 2 x ULN within 28 days of Week 0 Visit * Estimated glomerular filtration rate \< 30 mL/min/1.73 m2 (4-variable Modification of Diet in Renal Disease equation) within 28 days of Week 0 Visit or required renal replacement therapy within 90 days 20.
