Resumen

El objetivo principal del estudio es determinar el efecto de seralutinib en la mejora de la capacidad de ejercicio en sujetos con HAP del Grupo 1 de la OMS que se encuentran en clase funcional (CF) II o III. El objetivo secundario de este ensayo es determinar el tiempo hasta el empeoramiento clínico.
