Study summary

Study LTI-401 is an open-label, multicenter study which will evaluate the safety and tolerability of LIQ861 in subjects who have WHO Group 1 \& 3 PH.

Read the detailed description

Open-label, multicenter study which will evaluate the safety and tolerability of LIQ861 in subjects who have WHO Group 1 \& 3 PH.

Cohort A will include approximately 60 subjects who have WHO Group 3 Pulmonary Hypertension associated with interstitial lung disease (PH-ILD)

Cohort B will include approximately 20 subjects who have WHO Group 3 PH-ILD, have been on protocol specified dosing of inhaled treprostinil QID, not at treatment goal, and able to transition to LIQ861.

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of LIQ861 in subjects with WHO Group 1 \& 3 Pulmonary Hypertension (PH).

Eligibility criteria

Cohort A Key Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Males or Females between 18 years to 80 years of age.
  2. Has a confirmed diagnosis of WHO Group 3 PH-ILD based on CT chest imaging performed, which demonstrates evidence of diffuse parenchymal lung disease and /FVC (absolute values) ≥ 70% and are required to have evidence of pulmonary hypertension (PH) as demonstrated from right heart catheterization (RHC) with the following hemodynamic parameters.

    1. i) Pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) ≥ 3 Wood Units (WU) and ii) Pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP) of ≤ 15 mmHg and iii) A mean pulmonary arterial pressure (mPAP) of ≥ 30 mmHg.

      OR

    2. An exploratory subset of subjects with ILD: i) Pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) ≥ 3 Wood Units (WU) and ii) Pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP) of ≤ 15 mmHg and iii) A mean pulmonary arterial pressure (mPAP) of ≥ 21 mmHg.
  3. 6-minute walk distance of ≥ 125 meters

Cohort A Key Exclusion Criteria:

A Subject is not eligible for inclusion in the study if any of the following criteria apply:

  1. PH in the Updated WHO Classification Groups 1, 2, 4, or 5.
  2. History of hemodynamically significant left-sided heart disease.
  3. Exacerbation of underlying lung disease or active pulmonary or upper respiratory infections.
  4. Initiation of pulmonary rehabilitation.

Cohort B Key Inclusion Criteria

  1. Male or Females between 18 years to 75 years of age at Screening.
  2. Has a diagnosis of WHO Group 3 PH-ILD confirmed with CT chest imaging performed at the screening visit, which demonstrates evidence of diffuse parenchymal lung disease and FEV1/FVC (absolute values) ≥70%. Subjects are required to have evidence of pulmonary hypertension (PH) as demonstrated from right heart catheterization (RHC) with the following documented parameters:

    1. Pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) ≥3 Wood Units (WU) and
    2. Pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP) of ≤ 15 mmHg and
    3. A mean pulmonary arterial pressure (mPAP) of ≥ 25 mmHg
  3. Subjects must be on protocol specified dose of inhaled treprostinil QID not at treatment goal, and able to transition from their prescribed dose of inhaled Treprostinil therapy to LIQ861.
  4. 6-minute walk distance of ≥ 200 meters

Cohort B Key Exclusion Criteria

  1. PH in the Updated WHO Classification Groups 1, 2, 4, or 5.
  2. Inability to titrate inhaled treprostinil above 5 breaths (Tyvaso®) or above 16 mcg Tyvaso DPI®.
  3. History of Bronchospasm with Tyvaso or Tyvaso DPI.
  4. History of persistent moderate asthma or severe asthma.
  5. History of hemodynamically significant left-sided heart disease.
  6. Exacerbation of underlying lung disease or active pulmonary or upper respiratory infections.

FEV1

From a breathing test (spirometry): how much air you can blow out in the first second. Often given as a percentage of what is expected for your age, height and sex.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Cohort A: Incident of treatment-emergent drug/device-related adverse events and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)

    Treatment-emergent AEs and SAEs will be grouped by MedDRA System Organ Class, dose level at onset, time on drug at onset, and relationship to dose titration. Device-related AEs and SAEs will be grouped by MedDRA System Organ Class, dose level at onset, time on drug at onset, and relationship to dose titration.

    Time frame: Baseline until the end of the study.

  2. Cohort B: Number of participants with treatment-emergent drug/device-related adverse events and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)

    Treatment-emergent AEs and SAEs will be grouped by MedDRA System Organ Class, dose level at onset, time on drug at onset, and relationship to dose titration. Device-related AEs and SAEs will be grouped by MedDRA System Organ Class, dose level at onset, time on drug at onset, and relationship to dose titration.

    Time frame: 16 weeks

Timeline

1 registry update since Sep 25, 2026
ElapsedEstimatedEstimated, not yet reachedSimilar studies: half by the dot; the band is the middle halfHalf of similar studies reached it by the dot; the band is the middle half, from a quarter to three quarters

Started Dec 2023 (actual). Primary completion is estimated for Jul 2027, 43 months after the start.

Of 168 observational studies under Hypertension, Pulmonary, half reached primary completion within 59 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 24 and three quarters within 107. This study's planned 43 months is below that.

How these figures are worked out, and which studies are left out of them.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
