Summary

Based on existing literature and clinical trials, 2- hydroxbenzylamine (2-HOBA) has clear impact on mechanisms that much of the international field of pulmonary hypertension (PH) research agrees are central to disease progression. The investigator's preliminary data and Phase I studies demonstrate not only a clear positive impact on reducing pulmonary vascular resistances in Group I and II PH, and both cytokine and molecular biomarkers of disease, but also indicated the potential for a substantial positive effect on heart function under load stress. In this Phase II project, investigators will test the safety and efficacy of 2-HOBA in PH patients, improving the function of the right ventricle under stress in a large animal model, and effectiveness in the context of standard-of-care in mouse models and large animals, to establish the remaining data needed to proceed to commercialization.
