Answer a few quick questions to see if you may meet the eligibility requirements.
This clinical trial will evaluate whether combination therapy with Dapagliflozin + Macitentan improves outcomes compared to Dapagliflozin + placebo in patients with combined pre- and post-capillary pulmonary hypertension (CpcPH).
The study will measure changes in pulmonary vascular resistance, NT-proBNP, 6-minute walk distance, and quality of life (KCCQ scores) over 24 weeks.

This clinical trial will evaluate whether combination therapy with Dapagliflozin + Macitentan improves outcomes compared to Dapagliflozin + placebo in patients with combined pre- and post-capillary pulmonary hypertension (CpcPH).
The study will measure changes in pulmonary vascular resistance, NT-proBNP, 6-minute walk distance, and quality of life (KCCQ scores) over 24 weeks.
Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two groups, take study medication for 24 weeks, and undergo regular clinical, laboratory, and safety assessments.
